Data Analysis—Small Group Discussion As a nurse engaged in evidence-based practice, it is important to recognize how statistics and other data analysis tools are used to generate and assess evidence. Most nurses need only a foundational understanding of statistical tools and terminology to understand the majority of research studies. As a nurse, you should be able to recognize the most commonly used statistical tests, how and when they are used, and how significance is determined. In this Discussion, you examine different types of statistics and statistical tests, when and why these particular tests would be selected for use, and, most importantly, what the results indicate. To prepare: · Review the information in your assigned chapter (Chapter 23, “Qualitative Data Analysis”) Polit, D. F., & Beck, C. T. (2012). Nursing research: Generating and assessing evidence for nursing practice (Laureate Education, Inc., custom ed.). Philadelphia, PA: Lippincott Williams & Wilkins. · Develop a 1-page study sheet that includes the following: o The key concepts of the chapter: Focus on the basic concepts that are important for nurses to understand as they review research studies. Discuss why it is important for nurses to understand the basics of these statistical methods. o A description of the statistical methods covered in the chapter, what they measure, and under what circumstances they are used. Identify examples of how the statistical methods have been used in research studies. o An explanation of the key statistical tests and how they measure significance (if applicable).

Starting the Research Process Formulating a specific, applicable research problem statement is an important step in beginning a research process. The problem statement defines the focus of the research study, dictates what methods and tools will be used, and sets the stage for all subsequent elements of the research process. Because of this, it is necessary to put a great deal of thought into the problem statement to ensure that the rest of the research process will be well planned and appropriate to the problem at hand. This week’s Discussion asks you to identify evidence-based practice problems that can be addressed using quantitative research methods. Based on the practice problem you select, formulate a quantitative research problem statement. In this Discussion, you are also given the opportunity to evaluate your colleagues’ problem statements. Please refer to this week’s Learning Resources for appropriate and scholarly examples of research problem statements and how they inform the rest of the research process. To prepare: Determine a nursing practice problem that is of interest to you and that is appropriate for a quantitative research study. Note: You will continue to use this problem in the Discussions over the next several weeks. Using the Walden Library and other credible sources, locate and read two or three articles that address your practice problem. (you must cite the articles read in this assignment) With your practice problem in mind, review the Learning Resources and media presentations focusing on the strategies presented for generating a research problem statement. Ask yourself: What is the importance of my practice problem to nursing, research, and theory? How might addressing this problem bring about positive social change? How will investigating this problem support evidence-based practice? By Tomorrow 09/06/17, write a minimum of 550 words in APA format with a minimum of 3 references from the list below which include the level one headings as numbered below: Post 1) A proposed research problem statement (it has to be related to nursing for example: could be on diabetes, heart failure or more …) 2) Including sufficient information to make your focus clear and explaining how addressing this problem may bring about positive social change.

Project: Course Project: Part 1—Identifying a Researchable Problem One of the most challenging aspects of EBP is to actually identify the answerable question. —Karen Sue Davies Formulating a question that targets the goal of your research is a challenging but essential task. The question plays a crucial role in all other aspects of the research, including the determination of the research design and theoretical perspective to be applied, which data will be collected, and which tools will be used for analysis. It is therefore essential to take the time to ensure that the research question addresses what you actually want to study. Doing so will increase your likelihood of obtaining meaningful results. In this first component of the Course Project, you formulate questions to address a particular nursing issue or problem. You use the PICOT model—patient/population, intervention/issue, comparison, and outcome—outlined in the Learning Resources to design your questions. To prepare: Review the article, “Formulating the Evidence Based Practice Question: A Review of the Frameworks,” found in the Learning Resources for this week. Focus on the PICOT model for guiding the development of research questions. Review the section beginning on page 75 of the course text, titled, “Developing and Refining Research Problems” in the course text ,( Marquis & Huston) which focuses on analyzing the feasibility of a research problem. Reflect on an issue or problem that you have noticed in your nursing practice. Consider the significance of this issue or problem. (Refer to the PICOT question you earlier formulated for me on handwashing) Generate at least five questions that relate to the issue which you have identified. Use the criteria in your course text to select one question that would be most appropriate in terms of significance, feasibility, and interest. Be prepared to explain your rationale . Formulate a preliminary PICO question—one that is answerable—based on your analysis. What are the PICO variables (patient/population, intervention/issue, comparison, and outcome) for this question? (once again refer to the PICO question you earlier formulated for me on: Does hand washing and appropriate staff dressing among the surgical ward nurses reduce cross infection during patient management) Note: Not all of these variables may be appropriate to every question. Be sure to analyze which are and are not relevant to your specific question. Using the PICOT variables that you determined for your question, develop a list of at least 10 keywords that could be used when conducting a literature search to investigate current research pertaining to the question. To complete: Write a 4-page paper that includes the following: (1) A summary of your area of interest, an identification of the problem that you have selected, and an explanation of the significance of this problem for nursing practice (2) The 5 questions you have generated and a description of how .

Planning for Data Collection Planning for Data Collection Data collection is an important part of both quantitative and qualitative research. Although the actual approach to gathering information may vary, for either research design, researchers need to plan in advance how the data will be gathered, reported, and stored, and they need to ensure that their methods are both reliable and valid. As nurses review research when considering a new evidence-based practice, it is important to be familiar with sound collection practices in order to ascertain the credibility of the data presented. Consider the following scenario: Nurses and other health care professionals are often interested in assessing patient satisfaction with health care services. Imagine that you are a nurse working in a suburban primary care setting that serves 10,000 patients annually. Your organization is very interested in understanding the patient’s point of view to help determine areas of care that can be improved. With this focus in mind, consider how you would create a survey to assess patient satisfaction with the services your organization provides. You may wish to consider variables such as the ease of accessing care, patient wait time, friendliness of the staff, or the likelihood that a patient would recommend your organization to others. For this Discussion, you generate questions and an overall plan for data collection that would be appropriate for a patient satisfaction survey in relation to the above scenario. To prepare: · Consider the guidelines for generating questions presented in this week’s Learning Resources. · Review the scenario and formulate at least five questions that you could use to evaluate patient satisfaction. · Reflect on the different methods or instruments that can be used for gathering data described in Chapter 13 and Chapter 22 of the course text. Which methods or instruments would work well for the scenario? · Determine an appropriate sample size for the scenario. Please answer these as your outline for my assignment: 1. The questions that you created for gathering information about patient satisfaction based on the above scenario. 2. Explain which method or instrument you would use to gather data. 3. Describe the sample size appropriate for the population and how you would select participants. 4. Provide a rationale for your choices, and explain how you can ensure high standard of reliability and validity. All articles/references must be from the period of 2011 to 2016. Make 2-3 pages… Thank you. *This is for Masters of Science in Nursing.

Duffy, The Catholic University of America, School of Nursing, Washington DC 20064, USA. Email: [email protected] Received 19 April 2005; accepted 2 June 2005. Research Article Critically appraising quantitative research Joanne R. Duffy, dnsc, rn, ccrn, associate professor The Catholic University of America, School of Nursing, Washington DC, USA Abstract Critical appraisal of quantitative research is a skill that is necessary for adequate evidence-based practice. This paper describes critical appraisal and offers a process for its implementation. Four categories of quantitative studies are reviewed and associated links to relevant critical appraisal frameworks are provided. The implications for students, nursing faculty members, and practicing nurses are discussed. Key words appraisal, critique, evidence-based practice, instruments, research. INTRODUCTION The current emphasis on evidence-based practice and the desire to achieve “magnet status” has renewed interest in nursing research in many health-care institutions. The Magnet Recognition Program, developed by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), recognizes health-care organizations that provide exceptional nursing care through a rigorous system of standards and written documentation, culmi- nating in a site visit and the resultant award (ANCC, 2005). This benchmark allows consumers of nursing care to judge an institution’s quality and provides evidence of nursing excellence. Evidence-based practice assumes that nurses are able to appraise whether or not a research study is scientifically sound/rigorous. It is but one step in the very challenging process of clinical decision-making. Although most nurses complete a research course during their educational programs, many have little practical experience in this skill and they are now looking for ways to help them efficiently appraise the value of research. Furthermore, graduate students frequently are asked to critique research and faculty members continue to search for methods to help students better learn this skill. Finally, it has been this author’s experience that, as health-care institutions journey towards magnet status, many are partnering with research faculty members for guidance in revising nursing research committees, completing research, and/or learning about research. The quest by clinicians, nursing administrators and students for more knowledge and skill in the research process leads to the need for readily available methods to critically evaluate research studies. Traditional nursing research texts offer guidelines related to critiquing research; for example, Burns and Grove (2003) and Polit and Beck (2004) contain chapters addressing this issue. Most of these guidelines are written in an open- ended question format requiring a verbal or narrative reply. Although this method is .

He says, “About two out three people in the U.S. feel shame or guilt over their messiness, and almost all of us think poorly of messy people and highly of the neat and organized. ” He continues Sure, most of us are messy, but only moderately so, and we do just fine with it - other than feeling bad about it or getting grief from others. Once people start thinking about it, they realize there's often a good side to their messiness. Moderately messy people don't spend two or more hours a day straightening up, the way some of their neatnik friends and colleagues do. Their houses and cubicles feel friendlier, lived in and personalized. They've got the stuff they like at hand. They make serendipitous discoveries when they excavate through their piles. And, surprisingly, they usually know where everything is. Messy people let things spread out and stack up in ways that naturally suit the way they work and think. There's evidence that messy people are more improvisational, maintain more impressive workloads than their neatnik colleagues and reap other benefits from their relaxed sense of organization. * *Freedman, David H. messy desk means something's getting done. Los Angeles Times 29 Jan. 2007: A20. In a well-organized essay, discuss Freeman's thesis that messy people are more productive than neat people. Do you agree or disagree?

Current Issue Critical Thinking Read the following excerpt from "Understanding Digital Kids (DKs): Technology & Learning in the New Digital Landscape," an article regarding learning today: Recently, there were two recent cover stories in Time Magazine: Their conclusion was that children today are different. In fact, based on what we now know from the neurosciences and psychological sciences, what we’re now beginning to understand is that children today are FUNDAMENTALLY different than we are in the way they think, in the way they access, absorb, interpret, process and use information, and in the way they view, interact, and communicate in the modern world because of their experiences with digital technologies. If this is the case, it holds profound implications for all of us personally and professionally (Jukes, 2008, p. 14). Reflect on this selection and respond to the following questions: •What are your thoughts on this statement? •Do you feel today’s learner has a different way of learning than in the past? Defend your position. •In your future role, how will you use this information? •What implications does this have for your future role? Language Acquisition Resource Many resources are available to help us continue to develop our knowledge of language acquisition.
