This discussion board we will practice the use and interpretation of some Tables. You will have this due week to accomplish the following three (3) STEPS (Note: comments on other’s posts are not required, but they are encouraged!):
STEP 1
Start your response to this Forum with your FIRST NAME and LAST INITIAL.
STEP 2
In the body of your reply post, respond with critical reflection and application to the following questions on both of the below articles.
ARTICLE 1: Enhancing ‘best practice’ in trauma-informed social work education: insights from a study exploring educator and student experiences
ARTICLE 2: In the trauma-informed care trenches: Teacher compassion satisfaction, secondary traumatic stress, burnout, and intent to leave education within underserved elementary schools
(1) What was the research question(s), was this a quantitative study and/or a qualitative study, and how many subjects were involved in the final analysis?
(2) Look at how some of the demographics are presented: What do you notice about age? How is it presented in the two articles (Table 1 in article 1 and Table 2 in article 2). What is the mean and range reported for study sample here?
(3) What do you notice about race/ethnicity: Compare them across the two articles. Please provide your observation. Why is this an important observation?
STEP 3
One more article application: respond with critical reflection and application to the following questions on the article below.
ARTICLE 3: Frontline staff characteristics and capacity for trauma-informed care: Implications for the child welfare workforce
In Bosk et al. (2020), what is the strongest statistically significant correlation presented in Table 2? How is this correlation interpreted? What correlations were not statistically significant?
In Bost et al. (2020) they hypothesized that staff with insecure attachment styles and higher rejection sensitivity were less likely to be open towards the principles of TIC. What did researchers conclude? Do you agree/disagree with their interpretation? What were the major findings from this study?
Please be sure to read the instructions provided for this discussion board in the Forum.
