Question - Bradshaw and Vitale (2021) state "Finding a data-collection instrument(s) that is right for your project is challenging. The instrument must measure the targeted outcome. The instrument must meet acceptable levels of validity and reliability. Some instruments may be used free of charge, whereas other may not. The DNP student may need permission from the developer to use the instrument. Developing a new validated instrument is beyond the scope of a DNP Project. It is more practical to use an instrument that has already been developed." (page 210)
