This edition of the Study Guide is designed specifically for those candidates who plan to take the RPNCE beginning in the spring of 2018.  \nThe RPNCE is administered as a single test form consisting of 200 multiple-choice questions. Each question is designed to measure a specific competency. Each multiple-choice question is composed of two distinct elements: (1) the stem and (2) the options. The stem is the introductory part of the question that presents the examinee with a question or problem. The options are the alternatives (e.g., words, statements, numbers) from which the examinee is to select the corrector best answer to the question or problem posed in the stem. Each question has four options: the response representing the correct (or best) answer, and three distractors that are plausible but incorrect (or less adequate) options intended to distract the examinee who is uncertain of the correct response. Candidates are given four hours to complete the examination.  \nThe Practice Test  \nThe Registered Psychiatric Nurses Regulators of Canada (RPNRC) has partnered with its testing vendor, Yardstick Assessment Strategies (YAS) to develop a practice test.
