Question

Which tasks does the healthcare professional need to complete after gathering data? Select all that apply.

coding data by topics

placing coded information into groups or classification schemes

making a hypothesis

organizing data into tables, charts, or graphs

rejecting or accepting results based on hypothesis

Answer 1

Correct selections:
- coding data by topics
- placing coded information into groups or classification schemes
- organizing data into tables, charts, or graphs

Why not the others:
- making a hypothesis is done before data collection.
- “rejecting or accepting results based on hypothesis” is misphrased (you would accept/reject the hypothesis based on results), but that decision comes after analysis — the option as written is incorrect.
