The document discusses the preliminary stages of research, including literature reviews, problem definition, theoretical frameworks, hypotheses formulation, and criteria for good hypotheses. It provides definitions and guidelines for each stage. A literature review identifies existing knowledge, questions unanswered, and justification for further study. It involves locating, obtaining, reading, and evaluating scholarly materials. The theoretical framework establishes the foundation of variables identified as relevant to the problem. Well-stated hypotheses should be testable, limited in scope, and reflect a proposed relationship between variables based on prior knowledge.
This document provides an overview of evidence-based practice and systematic reviews in organizational psychology. It discusses the origins and principles of evidence-based practice, how it aims to address issues with decision-making based on limited evidence. The document also covers common misconceptions about evidence-based practice, the role of practitioner expertise, and barriers to its adoption such as cognitive biases, fads, and lack of incentives. The overall goal is to communicate the main thinking behind evidence-based practice and how systematic reviews can be conducted.
This document outlines the assignments for the course PSYCH 655. It includes individual and group assignments each week that involve analyzing cases, developing assessment tools, critiquing intelligence and personality tests, and more. The assignments require writing papers, creating presentations, and a podcast. They address topics like ethics, validity, biases, norming, and using assessments appropriately in different contexts. Students must complete two versions of most assignments.
The document discusses various topics related to research methodology. It defines what research is, the different types of research designs, variables, hypotheses, errors in hypotheses testing, and steps in hypothesis testing. Research is defined as a systematic effort to gain new knowledge through objective methods. The main types of research designs discussed are exploratory, descriptive, diagnostic, and hypothesis testing. Key terms explained include variables, hypotheses, null and alternative hypotheses, type I and type II errors, and significance level. The steps of hypothesis testing provided are making a formal statement, selecting a significance level, deciding on a distribution, selecting a sample, computing a value, calculating a probability, and comparing the probability.
Biology - Chp 1 - The Science of Biology - NotesMr. Walajtys
Biology explores the concepts, principles, and theories that allow people to understand living things; science is a method of inquiry rather than a set of facts, and involves forming hypotheses, conducting controlled experiments, analyzing data, and drawing conclusions. The goals of science are to understand the natural world through observation and experimentation, and to use scientific knowledge for practical purposes.
This document discusses the importance of developing a clear and focused research question. It explains that a well-constructed research question defines the scope and focus of the study and guides the research design, methodology, and analysis. The document provides tips for generating a research question, including starting with a topic of interest and narrowing the scope through literature review and refinement. It also describes characteristics of a good research question such as being feasible, interesting, novel, ethical, and relevant. The overall message is that taking the time to properly frame the research question is crucial for conducting successful research.
Research seminar lecture_4_research_questionsDaria Bogdanova
This document provides guidance on developing key components of a research proposal, including the title, literature review, research questions, hypotheses, and research methods. It emphasizes that developing a good research question is the most important part of the research process. Research questions should be narrow, fit the research objectives, and structure the thesis by defining what will be answered. The document also distinguishes between different types of research questions and variables, and describes experimental and quasi-experimental research designs.
This document discusses key concepts in research methods. It defines what constitutes a science, including being based on empirical evidence, being objective and falsifiable. It also discusses peer review which ensures research quality, and some of its limitations. Different research designs are examined like experiments, observations and surveys. Ethical issues in research and ways to address them are outlined. The document also covers reliability and validity, important considerations in research quality. Sampling methods and their pros and cons are defined. Finally, it provides guidance on how to structure answers when discussing research methods concepts or studies.
This document outlines an educational webinar on scientific research. It discusses key topics like the definition of research, the basic vs applied distinction, the scientific method, and the 10 hallmarks of scientific research. These include research being a driver of innovation, moving fast, being purposeful, rigorous, hypothesis-driven, reproducible, precise and objective. The webinar aims to explain the basic concepts and process of scientific research.
Bridging The Research-Practice Gap Through Evidence-Based Management And Systematic Review.
David Denyer and Rob Briner
Academy of Management Annual Meeting 2014, Philadelphia
The document outlines the key steps of the research process: 1) identifying a problem or management dilemma, 2) developing a research proposal, 3) designing the research through sampling, instruments, and data collection methods, 4) collecting primary and secondary data, and 5) analyzing and interpreting the data. It emphasizes that each step builds upon the previous one and that pilot testing instruments is important for identifying and addressing issues before full data collection. The overall process moves from broadly defining a research problem to gathering specific data to answer the research questions.
The document discusses measurement and scaling in research. It covers key concepts like nominal, ordinal, interval and ratio levels of measurement. It also discusses attitude measurement and various techniques for developing attitude scales, including Likert scales and semantic differential scales. Finally, it outlines important criteria for good measurement, such as validity, reliability and practicability. Measurement is important for identifying and quantifying variables scientifically and increasing research reliability.
On practical philosophy of research in science and technologySeppo Karrila
An attempt to indoctrinate graduate students with some philosophy of science and good practices in their research. Some references are included to disturbing trends known from poor practices that appear common to some fields, to make clear the importance of reliable methods, in particular the Scientific Method. Trigger warning: not trying to be nice to everybody.
This document provides definitions and explanations of key concepts in research such as research, research questions, hypotheses, and the FINER criteria for developing good research questions. It defines research as a systematic investigative process to increase knowledge. It explains that a research question focuses the study and determines the methodology. Hypotheses make testable predictions about the relationship between variables. The FINER criteria (Feasible, Interesting, Novel, Ethical, Relevant) provide a framework for formulating strong research questions.
This document discusses research design and methodology. It defines research design and lists its key features as reliability, objectivity, validity, replicability and generalizability. It also covers different types of research designs including exploratory, descriptive, historical, case study, developmental, correlational, causal-comparative, survey, experimental and quasi-experimental. Qualitative research is discussed along with its assumptions, features and types. Sources of error in research design are also outlined.
This document outlines the assignments and assessments for PSYCH 610, including individual and team assignments each week. The individual assignments primarily involve answering homework questions about research methods topics. The learning team assignments involve analyzing research studies, ethics cases, and applying statistical concepts. The course culminates in a research proposal due in the final week that incorporates a literature review, hypotheses, methods, and data analysis plan.
This document summarizes the solutions to homework problems from a PSYCH 610 course on research methods. It addresses topics like single-case designs, enhancing generalizability, quasi-experiments and confounding variables, research design types (one-group, non-equivalent control group, quasi-experimental), differences between cross-sectional, longitudinal and sequential studies, types of program evaluation, and manipulating and measuring variables in experiments. It also provides examples and discusses limitations/advantages of different research designs.

PSY 326 Research Methods Week 2 Guidance
Welcome to Week 2 of Research Methods! This week, you will have an overview of qualitative versus quantitative, and experimental versus non-experimental research approaches. Required resources are sections 1.2, 1.3, 2.1, and 5.2 of the textbook (Newman, 2016), two research studies (Blixen, Perzyski, Bukah, Howland, & Sajatovic, 2016; Boyers & Rowe, 2018), and three helpful videos about writing research questions and hypotheses. The videos are linked in the Course Materials and the written assignment prompt.
Assignments for the week include a discussion, an interactive learning activity and quiz, a journal exercise, and a written assignment. To see how your assignments will be graded, look at the rubrics accessible through a link on the screen for each discussion or assignment.
The Week 2 discussion is Method Comparisons. Your initial post is due by Day 3, and all replies are due by Day 7. To prepare for the discussion, read the sections of the textbook listed above and the lecture portion of this instructor guidance. Your initial discussion post will have two parts. The first part is the same for everyone. Explain the similarities and differences between qualitative and quantitative research. Then, explain the difference between experimental and non-experimental research.
The second part of the post is a jigsaw puzzle. Instead of having the entire class read and report on four categories of research, each person will research and report on one category. Categories are assigned based on the first letter of your last name. When you determine your assigned category, use the Research Methods research guide and the databases in the Ashford University Library to find at least two scholarly/peer-reviewed articles about that type of research. Then, describe the features of the research category, name at least one specific research design in the category, and suggest a suitable topic for this type of research. Document your sources in APA style.
At least three replies to the initial posts of classmates will be required for this discussion, because you must read and respond to at least one post about each of the other three research categories.

· Provide a comprehensive summary of key points from this EBP proposal project (PART A)
WEEK 2 – To develop an EBP PICOT/PICo question as well as a research question, numerous sources can trigger the spirit of inquiry, or to put it simply, the "I wonder . . . ?" The sources include, but are not limited to, the following.
· Identification of a concern in a practice area (i.e., "I wonder how I can prevent . . . ")
· Inconsistencies found in professional literature (i.e., Article A says I should do X, but Article B says that the preferred action is Y. I wonder which one is correct for my practice area.")
· Problems occurring with the practice area (i.e., "This has been a problem in the unit as long as I can remember; I wonder how I can improve the . . . ")
· Reviewing nursing theory (i.e., "I read that knowledge helps with self-care; I wonder whether it would help to foster patient compliance with . . . )
Although the source of the EBPPICOT/PICo or research study question can vary based upon your practice area and its related events, the role of nursing theory is where this week begins.
WEEK 3 – Discussions - Elements of Quantitative Research: Design and Sampling
This discussion will explore the quantitative approach sampling and design by analyzing a single study quantitative research article related to your specialty track. WEEK 4 - Developing New Evidence: Qualitative Research Studies Overview of the Qualitative Research Approach
Qualitative research studies phenomena in their natural settings. By using the natural settings, this design interprets phenomena in terms of the meanings that people bring to them. Qualitative research aims to get a better understanding through firsthand experience because subjects share thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Qualitative research involves the collection of a variety of empirical materials. These materials include, but are not limited to, case study, personal experience, life story, interviews, observations, historical perspectives, interactional, and visual texts. All of this information becomes data that describe routine as well as problematic moments with the meanings these moments have in individuals' lives.
Often, the qualitative approach is used as the initial research study in an area of interest because it will help to explore and define the phenomena. By gaining an understanding of underlying reasons, opinions, and motivations, it provid ...

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
A workshop hosted by the South African Journal of Science aimed at postgraduate students and early career researchers with little or no experience in writing and publishing journal articles.

Answer the following questions, covering material from Ch. 13 of
Methods in Behavioral Research:
1. Define inferential statistics and how researchers use inferential
statistics to draw conclusions from sample data.
2. Define probability and discuss how it relates to the concept of
statistical significance.
3. A researcher is studying the effects of yoga on depression.
Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups: yoga and
medication (experimental group); or support group and medication
(control group). What is the null hypothesis? What is the research
hypothesis?
4. In the scenario described in the previous question, the researcher
implements two programs simultaneously: a 6-week yoga program
coupled with medication management and a 6-week support group
program coupled with medication management. At the end of the 6
weeks, participants complete a questionnaire measuring depression. The
researcher compares the mean score of the experimental group with the
mean score of the control group. What statistical test would be most
appropriate for this purpose and why? What is the role of probability in
this statistical test?
5. In the scenario described in the previous questions, the researcher
predicted that participants in the experimental group—yoga plus
medication—would score significantly lower on measures of depression
than would participants in the control group—support group plus
medication. True or false: A two-tailed test of significance is most
appropriate in this case. Explain your response.

errors different?
15. 7. A researcher is studying the effects of sex—male and female—and
dietary sugar on energy level. Male and female participants agree to
follow either a high sugar or low sugar diet for eight weeks. The
researcher asks the participants to complete a number of questionnaires,
including one assessing energy level, before and after the program. The
researcher is interested in determining whether a high or low sugar diet
affects reported energy levels differently for men and women. At the end
of the program, the researcher examines scores on the energy level scale
for the following groups: Men – low sugar diet; Men – high sugar diet;
Women – low sugar diet; Women – high sugar diet. What statistic could
the researcher use to assess the data? What criteria did you use to
determine the appropriate statistical test?
