Why Should a Nursing Research Study That Demonstrates a Positive

Why should a nursing research study that demonstrates a positive outcome for a specific intervention be replicated before the intervention can be accepted for implementation?

A) Findings that are reproducible in a series of replicated studies increase the generalizability of the results.
B) Being able to replicate existing studies increases the opportunity for nurses to be involved in nursing research.
C) Replicated studies provide more data for statistical analysis and measurement of reliability.
D) If a high level of significance is associated with the study results, replication is unnecessary.
