1. Wk 8 Discussion
Question 1: Not all EBP projects result in statistically
significant results. Define clinical significance, and explain the
difference between clinical and statistical significance. How can
you use clinical significance to support positive outcomes in
your project?
Question 2: Based on how you will evaluate your EBP project,
which independent and dependent variables do you need to
collect? Why?
The answer should be separate, plagiarism free. And solid
academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and
references should be presented using APA documentation
