Week 1 Assignment: Survey Methodology Innovation Diffusion Theory uses scales designed to measure the predictive strength of antecedents of innovation adoption. The following 3-step process should be used for the construction of a self-administered questionnaire, or a researcher administered survey. Step 1. Specify the innovation and define the constructs: The focus is on the perception of using the innovation, rather than on the innovation itself since the actual product(s) doesn’t exist. The following antecedents form the basis for the following construct definitions: 1. Relative Advantage: the degree to which the innovation is perceived as being better than its precursor 2. Compatibility: the degree to which the innovation is perceived as being consistent with the existing values, needs, and past experiences of potential adopters 3. Complexity: the degree to which the innovation is perceived as being difficult to use 4. Trialability: the degree to which the innovation may be experimented with before adoption 5. Observability: the degree to which the results of the innovation are observable to others. (Rogers, E. 2005) Step 2. Generate a sample of items: Using Roger’s antecedent definitions above, develop a series of questions, 2 per construct 10 in total, to assess a respondent’s attitude towards the adoption of the proposed innovation. (Rogers, E. 2005) Item format: 7-Point Likert scale Level of measurement: ordinal, interval, categorical Step 3. Collect data with survey instrument and analyze data using Excel. Analyze Data: Use descriptive statistics; e.g. mean, media, mode, to analyze the distribution of the data.

It classifies research as basic/applied and problem-solving/evaluation/action. Reliability and objectivity of the researcher are discussed as important for deriving public knowledge. The document concludes by outlining the general process of research from identifying a question to interpreting results.
Research
This document outlines the steps involved in conducting research. It defines research as a quest for knowledge through diligent investigation aimed at discovering new information. The key steps discussed are: 1) formulating a research problem and objectives, 2) conducting a literature review, 3) developing a research design, 4) collecting and analyzing data, 5) generalizing and interpreting results, and 6) reporting findings. Ethical considerations are also discussed, such as avoiding bias, using appropriate methods, and correctly reporting results. The overall purpose of research is to systematically investigate a problem to expand understanding and knowledge.
Grant Funding: How to obtain it and why you should care
Grant money drives research, but obtaining funding can be a daunting task for those unfamiliar with the process. Wouldn’t it be nice to have someone to show you the ropes?
That’s why three postdoctoral fellows from Johns Hopkins Institute for NanoBioTechnology were asked to present a sort of crash course in how to get those almighty research dollars. The talk, given as one of INBT’s professional development seminars on July 27 to a group of graduate, undergraduate and a few high school summer research interns, covered basics, as well as some commonly overlooked issues encountered in the grant application process.
Course Project Part 3—Translating Evidence Into Pra.docx
Course Project: Part 3—Translating Evidence Into Practice
You will combine Parts 1, 2, and 3 of your Course Project respectively into one cohesive and cogent paper.
In Part 3 of the Course Project, you consider how the evidence you gathered during Part 2 can be translated into nursing practice.
Now that you have located available research on your PICOT question, you will examine what the research indicates about nursing practices. Connecting research evidence and findings to actual decisions and tasks that nurses complete in their daily practice is essentially what evidence-based practice is all about. This final component of the Course Project asks you to translate the evidence and data from your literature review into authentic practices that can be adopted to improve health care outcomes. In addition, you will also consider possible methods and strategies for disseminating evidence-based practices to your colleagues and to the broader health care field.
To prepare:
· Consider Parts 1 and 2 of your Course Project. How does the research address your PICOT question?
· With your PICOT question in mind, identify at least one nursing practice that is supported by the evidence in two or more of the articles from your literature review. Consider what the evidence indicates about how this practice contributes to better outcomes.
· Explore possible consequences of failing to adopt the evidence-based practice that you identified.
· Consider how you would disseminate information about this evidence-based practice throughout your organization or practice setting. How would you communicate the importance of the practice?
To complete:
In a 3- to 4-page paper:
· Restate your PICOT question and its significance to nursing practice.
· Summarize the findings from the articles you selected for your literature review. Describe at least one nursing practice that is supported by the evidence in the articles. Justify your response with specific references to at least 2 of the articles.
· Explain how the evidence-based practice that you identified contributes to better outcomes. In addition, identify potential negative outcomes that could result from failing to use the evidence-based practice.
· Outline the strategy for disseminating the evidence-based practice that you identified throughout your practice setting. Explain how you would communicate the importance of the practice to your colleagues. Describe how you would move from disseminating the information to implementing the evidence-based practice within your organization. How would you address concerns and opposition to the change in practice?

Week 1 Assignment: Survey Methodology Innovation Diffusion Theory uses scales designed to measure the predictive strength of antecedents of innovation adoption. The following 3-step process should be used for the construction of a self-administered questionnaire, or a researcher administered survey. Step 1. Specify the innovation and define the constructs: The focus is on the perception of using the innovation, rather than on the innovation itself since the actual product(s) doesn’t exist. The following antecedents form the basis for the following construct definitions: 1. Relative Advantage: the degree to which the innovation is perceived as being better than its precursor 2. Compatibility: the degree to which the innovation is perceived as being consistent with the existing values, needs, and past experiences of potential adopters 3. Complexity: the degree to which the innovation is perceived as being difficult to use 4. Trialability: the degree to which the innovation may be experimented with before adoption 5. Observability: the degree to which the results of the innovation are observable to others. (Rogers, E. 2005) Step 2. Generate a sample of items: Using Roger’s antecedent definitions above, develop a series of questions, 2 per construct 10 in total, to assess a respondent’s attitude towards the adoption of the proposed innovation. (Rogers, E. 2005) Item format: 7-Point Likert scale Level of measurement: ordinal, interval, categorical Step 3. Collect data with survey instrument and analyze data using Excel. Analyze Data: Use descriptive statistics; e.g. mean, media, mode, to analyze the distribution of the data.

Course Project: Part 3—Translating Evidence Into Practice
You will combine Parts 1, 2, and 3 of your Course Project respectively into one cohesive and cogent paper.
In Part 3 of the Course Project, you consider how the evidence you gathered during Part 2 can be translated into nursing practice.
Now that you have located available research on your PICOT question, you will examine what the research indicates about nursing practices. Connecting research evidence and findings to actual decisions and tasks that nurses complete in their daily practice is essentially what evidence-based practice is all about. This final component of the Course Project asks you to translate the evidence and data from your literature review into authentic practices that can be adopted to improve health care outcomes. In addition, you will also consider possible methods and strategies for disseminating evidence-based practices to your colleagues and to the broader health care field.
To prepare:
· Consider Parts 1 and 2 of your Course Project. How does the research address your PICOT question?
· With your PICOT question in mind, identify at least one nursing practice that is supported by the evidence in two or more of the articles from your literature review. Consider what the evidence indicates about how this practice contributes to better outcomes.
· Explore possible consequences of failing to adopt the evidence-based practice that you identified.
· Consider how you would disseminate information about this evidence-based practice throughout your organization or practice setting. How would you communicate the importance of the practice?
To complete:
In a 3- to 4-page paper:
· Restate your PICOT question and its significance to nursing practice.
· Summarize the findings from the articles you selected for your literature review. Describe at least one nursing practice that is supported by the evidence in the articles. Justify your response with specific references to at least 2 of the articles.
· Explain how the evidence-based practice that you identified contributes to better outcomes. In addition, identify potential negative outcomes that could result from failing to use the evidence-based practice.
· Outline the strategy for disseminating the evidence-based practice that you identified throughout your practice setting. Explain how you would communicate the importance of the practice to your colleagues. Describe how you would move from disseminating the information to implementing the evidence-based practice within your organization. How would you address concerns and opposition to the change in practice?

4.05 drug addiction is a disease
Addiction is a chronic disease that is likely to recur, similar to other chronic diseases like diabetes or hypertension. Treatment is most effective when it combines both medication and behavioral treatments. Research shows treatment can be very effective, even when ongoing treatment is required, as addiction may otherwise recur without continued intervention and support. The document discusses understanding addiction as a disease, whether it is acute or chronic, and variability between individuals, before directing readers to a website to learn more about specific treatment experiences.
4.04 drug abuse and addiction
The document discusses drug abuse and addiction through a series of questions about an experiment with rats. The experiment shows that rats administered cocaine or electrical brain stimulation to the reward system will compulsively press a lever to receive more, demonstrating how drug use becomes reinforcing. It defines addiction as a chronic brain disease characterized by compulsive drug use despite negative consequences. While drug use is initially voluntary, it can lead to long-term changes in the brain that undermine a person's self-control and ability to stop using drugs. The risk of addiction is influenced by biological and environmental factors, and the threshold for addiction is not the same for all individuals.
4.03 drugs change the way neurons communicate
Certain drugs can interfere with neurotransmission in the brain by mimicking or blocking neurotransmitters like dopamine. Drugs like methamphetamine, nicotine, and cocaine cause the release of dopamine in the brain's reward system, producing feelings of pleasure. Alcohol alters brain neurons by binding to receptors for neurotransmitters such as GABA and glutamate. The effects of a drug depend on factors like dosage, route of administration, genetics, and environmental stresses.
4.02 neurons, brain chemistry, and neurotransmission
The document discusses neurons, brain chemistry, and neurotransmission. It describes how neurons communicate with each other through synapses using electrical and chemical signals. When a presynaptic neuron is activated, it releases neurotransmitters that bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron, which may excite or inhibit that neuron and propagate the signal. The brain contains billions of neurons that interact through this synaptic transmission to control functions, behaviors, and emotions.
4.01 the brain what is going on in there
The document discusses the structure and functions of the main parts of the brain. It explains that the brain stem regulates basic functions like breathing and heart rate. The cerebellum coordinates movement and balance. The limbic system regulates emotions. The diencephalon processes sensory information and controls the pituitary gland. The cerebral cortex is responsible for higher-level cognitive functions like thinking, language, and perception. The document also describes how brain imaging techniques like PET scans are used to study brain activity during different tasks.
3.05 making decisions in the face of uncertainity
This document discusses making decisions involving biomedical technologies when facing uncertainty. It notes that while science can help analyze uncertain situations and identify susceptible individuals through genetic screening, this ability also raises difficult ethical questions about using genetic information. Ultimately, science can determine what is possible but public policy and ethics analysis are needed to determine what should be done.
3.05 making decisions in the face of uncertainity
Sergei Grinkov, an Olympic gold medalist figure skater, suddenly collapsed and died during a practice session at age 28. He was found to have been born with a mutation in a single gene that affects blood clot formation, causing clots to form in the wrong places and leading to his unexpected heart attack. The document discusses how all diseases have both genetic and environmental factors that influence risk and how identifying genetic risks can help enable prevention strategies.
3.03 molecular medicine comes of age
Molecular medicine is advancing as scientists sequence disease-related genes to better understand and treat disease. Physicians will tailor drug prescriptions based on genetic differences in how people respond to treatment. Determining the molecular structure of disease genes allows scientists to develop new treatment strategies by applying this genetic knowledge. As understanding of human genetic variation improves, diagnosis and treatment of diseases by physicians will change substantially.
3.01 alike, but not the same
This document discusses human genetic variation and how scientists study it. It covers several key points:
- Genetics is the study of inherited variation in humans. Studying human genetics helps us understand ourselves as well as treat diseases.
- Scientists use techniques like transmission genetics, cytology, molecular analysis and DNA microarrays to study genetic variation.
- While humans share much of our genetic information, no two individuals (except identical twins) have the same complete genetic makeup. There is natural genetic variation among humans.
- Understanding genetic variation is important for medicine to promote health and treat diseases. It also raises ethical issues that society must address.
