For this assignment, you will prepare a 5 to 6 page review of the literature pertinent ***** and to use that review to propose a methodology to address the problem.
Conduct a search of literature relevant to the problem/topic. Identify a minimum of 4 references, most of which are randomized clinical trials. Only one opinion articles may be included. (I will include 4 articles I found to be used also.)
Read the peer- reviewed articles with the focus of preparing a document that will compare and contrast the information in the articles you found. Copies of the articles used must be submitted with the final assignment.
The reader of your literature review should be able to clearly identify the gaps in the knowledge in the problem area as well as the purpose of the study you are proposing. You should be able to write enough to create an effective argument but not so much that the result looks padded.
Prepare an Evidence Matrix using the template attached
Your Introduction must include:
- Your PICOT question. (PLEASE OUTLINE THE PICOT QUESTION AND ANSWER EACH PART OF THIS ACRONYM)
- Purpose of or rationale for the scholarly project:
- Provide an evidence-based explanation of why it is necessary to complete your scholarly project and what benefit will be gained (health promotion, fiscal, and efficiency).
- Background on the problem or population of interest:
- Using primary sources, provide data on your topic.
- Providing the background will demonstrate the focused need for your project.
- Significance of the problem to nursing and health care:
- State how your problem or population of interest aligns with the larger interest of health care in the community.
- Create a context to why your topic is important.
- Benefit of the project to nursing practice:
- State what will be gained from your project.
- Describe the expected outcomes of your project to practice within your population and setting.
- Relate the outcomes to evidence-based guidelines and outcomes.
- Describe how your project may influence other populations or settings.
Submission Instructions:
The assignment is 5-6 pages in length and follows current APA format including citation of references.
Incorporate a minimum of 4 current (published within the last five years) scholarly journal articles or primary legal sources (statutes, court opinions) within your work.
Journal articles and books should be referenced according to the current APA style (the library has a copy of the APA Manual).
FOR THE EVIDENCE MATRIX: (I will include the template for the Matrix)
The Evidence Matrix can help you organize your research before writing your literature review. Use it to identify patterns and cohesions in the articles you have found similar methodologies? common theoretical frameworks? It helps you make sure that all your major concepts covered. It also helps you see how your research fits into the context of the overall topic.
A literature review provides a summary of previous research on a topic that appraises, categorizes, and compares what has been previously published on a specific topic. It lets the author to synthesize and place into context the research and scholarly literature relevant to the topic. It helps to plan the different methods to a given question and reveals patterns. It forms the foundation for the author’s subsequent research and defends the significance of the new investigation.
The introduction should define the topic and set the stage for the literature review. It will include the author’s perspective or point of view on the topic, how they have defined the scope of the topic (including what’s not included), and how the review will be organized. It can point out overall trends, conflicts in methodology or conclusions, and gaps in the research.
In the body of the review, the author should organize the research into major topics and subtopics. These groupings may be by subject, type of research such as case studies, methodology such as qualitative, genre, chronology, or other common characteristics. Within these groups, the author can then discuss the evidences of each article and examine and compare the importance of each article to similar ones.
The conclusion will summarize the main findings of the review of literature supports or not the research to follow and may give direction for further research.
The list of references will include full citations for all the items mentioned in the literature review.
