Nimmy James    2 posts   Re: Topic 8 DQ 1  Dependent variables are otherwise known as the outcome variables. The value of the dependent variable depends on the value of other variables. In research, the dependent variable takes on different values in response to the independent variable. The independent variable is otherwise known as the experimental or predictor variable. It is manipulated in the research to observe the effect on the dependent variable. The value of an independent variable does not rely on other variables as the independent variable can stand alone (Kusurkar, Ten Cate, van Asperen, & Croiset2011).  Using my EBP as an example, the dependent variable in the study is the rate of pressure ulcers in the facility. To measure this, I will need to collect data on the number of pressure ulcers in past three years. This data will help me to monitor how manipulating the independent variables affect pressure ulcer rate which is a dependent variable. The independent variables in this study include nurses’ knowledge about wound care and how effects of protein intake with wound healing. The EBP will manipulate theses independent variables by educating nurses on nutritional impact on pressure wound healing and by implementing extra protein into their daily diet. With a questionnaire, I will be able to collect data on nurses’ knowledge about the topic which help with planning the education and training.

Assignment: Application: Taking a Stand

Effective leaders have a high degree of self-awareness and know how to leverage their strengths in the workplace. Assessments are a valuable tool that professionals can use to learn more about themselves and consider how their temperament and preferences influence their interactions with others.

As you engage in this learning process, it is important to remember that everyone—regardless of temperament type or related preferences—experiences some challenges with regard to leadership. The key to success is being able to recognize and leverage your own strengths while honoring differences among your colleagues.

At some point in your leadership career, you will encounter an ethical or moral dilemma that requires you to take a stand and defend your position.

For this Assignment, you evaluate an issue and consider how you could act as a moral agent or advocate, facilitating the resolution of the issue for a positive outcome.

To prepare:

Consider the examples of leadership demonstrated in this week’s media presentation and the other Learning Resources.

To further your self-knowledge, you are required to complete the Kiersey Temperament as indicated in this week’s Learning Resources. Consider your leadership style, including your strengths for leading others and include your results from Kiersey Temperament Sorter to describe potential challenges related to your leadership style.

Mentally survey your work environment, or one with which you are familiar, and identify a timely issue/dilemma that requires you to perform the leadership role of moral agent or advocate to improve a situation (e.g., speaking or acting on behalf of a vulnerable patient, the need for appropriate staffing, a colleague being treated unfairly).

What ethical, moral, or legal skills, dispositions, and/or strategies would help you resolve this dilemma? Define the differences between ethical, moral, and legal leadership.

Finally, consider the values and principles that guide the nursing profession; the organization’s mission, vision, and values; the leadership and management competencies addressed in this course; and your own values and reasons for entering the profession. What motivation do you see for taking a stand on an important issue even when it is difficult to do so?

To complete:

By Day 7

Write a 4 to 5 page paper (page count does not include title and reference page) that addresses the following:

Introduce the conceptual frameworks of the ethical constructs of ethics, moral, or legal standards and the purpose of the paper.

Consider  an ethical, moral, or legal dilemma that you have encountered in your work environment and describe it.

Analyze the moral, ethical, and legal implications utilized in this situation. Describe your role as a moral agent or advocate for this specific issue.

Consider your leadership styles identified by your self-assessment and determine if they act as a barrier or facilitation during this dilemma.
