Examining a research study will aide you in addressing course objective:
#1 – Evaluate the basic elements of the research process and models for employing evidence in clinical practice.
Discussion – Examine a Research Study Requirements:
For your original post:
Identify your PICOT question in the discussion box
Type-in your APA 7th edition formatted reference for your original research study
Attach/embed a full, original research study from a primary source related to your PICOT question to the post.
For your one (1) reply to an original posting.
Please reply to an unaddressed original posting. Do not ”save” or post ”I’m working on this” as a reply. Access the original research study presented in your peer’s original post and answer the following (full sentences not required):
State the name of the RN you are responding to
Identify if the information gathered in the original research study was from a primary source or secondary sourceLinks to an external site.
Identify the research approach in the study- quantitative, qualitative, mixed or none of these.
Identify the research design used in the research approach
Identify the data collection method or measurement method in the research study
Identify the population the research study is examining
Identify the study sample size
Identify whether the research study addresses the intervention strategy (I) or the comparison strategy (C) of the PICOT question? If neither, does it aid in the background of the identified PICOT question?
Identify a model for employing evidence in clinical practice (the study may not discuss this directly; you will have to select an appropriate model for change). Provide a link to a scholarly source about the identified model for employing evidence in clinical practice.
Attach an original research study from a primary source to your reply that addresses the other strategy. For example, if the posted study you accessed addresses the intervention strategy, you are to attach a study from a primary addressing the comparison strategy.
