2, 5, 3, 4, 1, 6
Rationale 1: The findings of the study are not meaningful until the implications for nursing are identified.
Rationale 2: After reviewing many theories, the researcher must choose one to test.
Rationale 3: The researcher must choose an instrument that will test the hypothesis or research question that is also congruent with the theory being tested.
Rationale 4: The findings of the study should be described in light of the explanations provided by the theory.
Rationale 5: The chosen theory should be used to define the study variable.
Rationale 6: Most studies result in additional questions or the need for replication of the study in order to support study findings.
