Question

Strohl studied the attitudes of recent nursing school graduates (registered nurses [RNs]) toward evidence-based nursing practice. She was interested in exploring whether the nurses' attitudes varied in relation to the type of employment or further training they had pursued. She obtained lists of graduates from three schools of nursing-one school in each of three different metropolitan areas (Pittsburgh, Denver, and Seattle). She then conducted structured telephone interviews with 50 graduates of each school. Her method was to find (using alumni information provided by the schools, local telephone directories, and Internet resources) the telephone numbers for as many names on her lists as she could and to make calls until she had completed 50 telephone interviews with graduates from each of the three schools. Thus, her final survey sample consisted of 150 recently graduated RNs.
