    Question 3 5 / 5 pts A nurse is reading a journal article on the effects of patient incivility on nursing burn-out. The results of the study were r = 0.50, p = .04 (with alpha set at .05). The nurse correctly summarizes that: there is a moderate relationship between patient incivility and nursing burn-out. there is no relationship between patient incivility and nursing burn-out. there is a weak relationship between patient incivility and nursing burn-out. Page 546 Question 4 5 / 5 pts A pediatric nurse is interested in research on a new medication used to treat seizures in children. She reviews a study of the new drug where researchers randomized 50 children to receive either the new seizure drug (treatment group) or Phenobarbital (control group). The researchers monitored the number of seizures in both groups for three months. They reported that the treatment group had fewer seizures (t = 2.25, p = . 045) (with alpha set at .05). The nurse correctly determines that children who received the new drug had significantly fewer seizures than those who received Phenobarbital.
