Article Critique Assignment

Formal research studies follow a systematic research process. The quality of a research study lies within all stages of the study research process. This assignment aims at integrating the major basic research processes in quantitative research concepts.

Select any quantitative nursing research article you are interested in. Compare and comment on the various sections of the study based on the ideal steps of the research process. Choose the study from a journal probably peer reviewed journal not a mere internet site. Ensure that the chosen article will enable you answer the questions the critique assignment should address.

Based on the steps of an ideal research process, read and critique the entire study using the information from Chapter 12 of the course book. Provide definitions and explanation of applicable step of the research process before each critique. Reference cited statements from course textbook and the research study are needed to support each of the sections critiqued.

Adhere to the evaluation of the Evaluation of Scholarly Paper Rubric. Questions to address:
Problem Statement and Purpose of Study

o Identify the problem statement and/or purpose of the studyo Is the problem significant to nursing?
o Does the purpose narrow and clarify the aim of the study?

Literature Review

o Does the literature review demonstrate progressive development of ideas through previous research? What is the relationship of this study to similar previous studies in the literature review?

o Does the literature review provide a rationale (gap) and direction for the study?
o Are the findings of previous studies used to generate the research problem and purpose?

Theoretical Framework

o Is a theoretical knowledge base (framework) developed for the problem and purpose? If a framework is provided, is it adequate to explain the phenomenon of concern?

Objectives, Research Questions and hypotheses

o Identify the hypotheses or research questions
o Are the objectives, questions, or hypotheses expressed clearly?
o Are the objectives, questions, or hypotheses logically linked to the research purpose and

framework?

Variables
o Identify Research Variables-Independent and dependent variables of the study.

o Are the variables conceptually and operationally defined? Research Method/Design

o Identify the quantitative research design of the study
o Is the design used the most appropriate to obtain the needed data?
o Is the design logically linked to the sampling method and statistical analyses?

Participants/Subjects

o Describe the subjects being studied with inclusion and exclusion criteria
o Are any subjects excluded from the study based on age, socioeconomic status, or race,

without a sound rationale? Sample Size

o Identify the sampling method used in the study.
o Is the sampling method adequate to produce a representative sample?
o Were the sampling criteria appropriate for the type of study conducted?o Was power analysis used to determine sample size?

Ethical Considerations
o Are the rights of human subjects protected?

o How were consents obtained? Are there any other ethical considerations? Data Collection

o What are the data collection methods? Are the data collection methods ethical?o Are the instruments clearly described?
o Are validity and reliability of the instruments described?

Data Analysis

o What statistical measures were used in data analysis?
o Are data analysis procedures appropriate to the type of data collected?

Please follow the rubric and do a great job. Follow chapter 12 as it says in the instructions below. I uploaded the book below. It must be a quantitative nursing article.

As a manager of Health Information Services, you must be able to organize your time in a fashion that reflects priorities, deadlines, and reasonable expectations. To-do lists, calendars, and delegation can help you organize time appropriately and effectively.

For this written assignment read Director Jones’ Monday Morning (Source: AOE Case Study Manual, 1998).

Determine the priority of each of the 10 items listed at the end. Decide on priority #1, #2, or #3. Write your answers in Microsoft Word.

#1 – the task should be handled immediately

#2 – the task should be delegated

#3 – the task can be resolved/scheduled for a later date

For each item, list the action you will take and the rationale for the action.

Create a plan that outlines a research study and the associated qualitative method(s) you will use to analyze the data collected in the research study. The plan must include an abstract, introduction, literature review, methods section, and an expected conclusions section per APA standards. At least seven outside sources are to be used in the literature review section of the study. Please use your feedback from assignments prepared during the first four weeks (first four assignments if in the 12 week course) as guidance for your research plan.

Your research plan should look like a research article from a refereed journal, without the results section, but with an expected conclusions section. The most time and emphasis should be placed on the method and expected conclusions sections of your paper, as appropriate qualitative research methods are the focus of this course.

Details: For your selected topic, please complete the following:

• Abstract – this is a relatively short piece, no more than one page in length (double spaced), where you summarize the paper. In it, you will give a brief description of the research study to be done. This piece of the proposal should be written in such a way that the reader of your Research Plan will be interested in your proposal and want to read further to find out the details.
• Introduction – this is where you introduce the study Here you discuss the problem, going from the broad to the narrow topic, pointing toward the specific problem of which you plan to address with the literature. In a qualitative study, you will generally be investigating a research question that starts with “Why?” or “How?”. Whereas, the quantitative research questions generally address “How Much?” or “How Many”. Each section of your research plan should have alignment. Once you identify the specific problem and the prospective research question(s), you will be able to examine the literature within the scope of the specific problem to be investigated.
• Literature Review – in this section, you should present existing information regarding your topic. You will present summaries of articles and their findings that support the background leading up to your study, or any aspect of the research proposed.
• Method-here you tell the reader how you will gather the data that you will need to address the specific problem. This should be in alignment with the introduction and the proposed research question(s). Tell the reader how you plan to address the research questions with collection of the data. Briefly include the type of qualitative study (case study, qualitative, phenomenological, or other), as well as all qualitative research procedures you’ll use to gather and evaluate your data. Your target audience and the specific research techniques that you will use should be identified in this section of the paper.

• Expected Conclusions – using fake data, use charts, graphs, and any analyses you think are appropriate for this proposal. Write a summary description, critique, evaluation, and comparison of the qualitative research technique(s). Discuss each method’s procedures, strengths and weaknesses, typical findings, best applications, and the unique qualities of each.

Support your paper with a minimum of 7 resources. In addition to these specified resources, other appropriate scholarly resources, including older articles, may be included.

Length: 12-15 pages not including title and reference pages
References: Minimum of 7 scholarly resources.

Your paper should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts that are presented in the course and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your paper should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards.
