Abstract
Mandates from the clinical, academic, policy, and ethical arenas concerning evidence-based practice are both welcome and formidable. Although nursing science and the preparation of clinical scientists has improved over the past decades, answering complex clinical questions remains challenging. One common scenario is that we find a research question that is both compelling and pertinent to our practice, and we find a willing population of potential participants to study. Yet designing a research plan that includes valid and reliable measures can be a challenge. We offer a case study from our own research to illustrate the process of selecting measures for clinical research with pediatric and maternal–child populations. We also discern the steps in the process and the criteria to use when selecting measures.
