PUBH 1080 Health Inquiry Critique-some questions you want to ask your participan

Learning outcomes

 

1. Critically review the relationship between research, evidence-based nursing practice and patient safety outcomes

2. Explore the social, political and professional influences on nursing research in a variety of health care domains

3. Critically analyse available research literature to explore and inform “real world” nursing problems.

4. Identify the ethical and legal responsibilities of undertaking nursing research in a variety of settings and apply knowledge of the National Health and Medical Research Council’s (NH&MRC) standards of ethical human research to nursing research practice. In this assignment you are now required to write a research proposal based on any gaps identified in your review. This would require you to think critically and analyse the literature. This essay requires you to choose a specific area of study you want to investigate following on from your first assignment. 

Study design: Will this be a qualitative or quantitative study? If qualitative or quantitative, what type? (Phenomenology, quasi-experimental etc.). Justify the chosen design. Include appropriate references. You may even say things such as Olasoji (2020) carried out a similar study using this particular design…

Setting and Sample: Who will you be collecting data from and where will they be situated? Be as precise as possible, you can be ambitious but not overly ambitious, e.g. all mental health nurses working in the World-while this might be great you probably do not have the time/resources to carry out such large scale project.

Data Collection: How will you be collecting data, are you interviewing people, are you using a survey? What will you use to collect your data? (Include references). You should also attempt to include a sample of some questions you want to ask your participants;

Ethical considerations: What are the possible ethical issues that could arise how will you manage this, where will you apply for ethical clearance for your study? Provide as much details as possible about the ethical considerations.

Project timeline: How long do you think this study will go on for? Factor in the fact that ethics application could take at least 2 months to be obtained. Propose a realistic timeline with each stage of your study mentioned.
