use of systemic method to identify, appraise, and synthesize data to address a practice problem

28
Q

What is literature review?

A

a part of the EBP process as evidence needs to identified and leveled

29
Q

How to conduct literature review on a quantitative study?

A

in advance

30
Q

How to conduct qualitative studies?

A

some where it is done before & some done after data collection as part of analysis.

31
Q

What is a primary resource?

A

the person writing the info you are reading did the study

32
Q

What is a secondary resource?

A

paraphrasing the work/thoughts/ideas of researchers and theories

33
Q

What does PICO stand for?

A

p-population
i-intervention
c-comparisons of the intervention
o-outcomes needed for practice and ways to measure the outcomes in your practice

34
Q

What is an operational definition?

A

it creates parameters for what you are studying ex. points on a thermometer for temp

35
Q

What is a conceptual definition?

A

a description of what a concept means within the context of a study

36
Q

What is orienting definition?

A

the act of providing initial background information or context at the beginning of a study

37
Q

What is a continuous variable?

A

a number than is changing over time
ex. temp, mass, height

38
Q

what is a discrete variable?

A

non-changeable ex. score given as a judge, dice roll

39
Q

What is a categorical variable?

A

separating data in similar attributes ex. condos, houses, apartments

40
Q

What is a dichotomous variable?

A

not restricted to whole numbers ex. yes/no, M/F, etc.

41
Q

What is an active variable?

A

a variable that can be manipulated by the researcher ex. teaching method

42
Q

What is an attribute variable?

A

not changeable like race, gender, psychological condition

43
Q

What is an independent variable?

A

intervention and influence

44
Q

What is the dependent variable?

A

outcome that depends on the intervention

45
Q

What is an extraneous variable?

A

any factor outside of the study’s primary focus that could potentially influence the results of a research study

46
Q

What are demographic variables?

A

characteristics of a population that are used to describe its composition, such as age, gender, race, ethnicity, income
the only variable you will see in qualitative

47
Q

What is the mean?

A

The mean is the sum of the scores divided by the number of scores being summed.

48
Q

What is the median?

A

The median is the midpoint or the score at the exact center of the ungrouped frequency distribution—the 50th percentile.

49
Q

What is the mode?

A

The mode is the numerical value or score that occurs with greatest frequency.

50
Q

What is a confidence interval?

A

range of values that is derived from sample data that is likely to contain the true population parameter with a specific level of confidence

51
Q

What is the standard deviation?

A

measure of the amount of variation or dispersion in a set of values. It quantifies how spread out the numbers are from the average

52
Q

What is the relationship of standard deviation and confidence?

A

the lower the standard deviation the more confident you can be with your results

53
Q

What is considered an extreme score?

A

higher or lower than 95% of the population

54
Q

What is a nominal measure?

A

level categorizes data without any order

55
Q

What is ordinal level?

A

ranking but doesn’t indicate the differences between levels
ex. Customer satisfaction ratings (e.g., very dissatisfied, dissatisfied, neutral, satisfied, very satisfied).

56
Q

What is interval level?

A

ordered data with meaningful differences between values, but there is no 0 point ex. temp in celsius (0 is still a temp)

57
Q

What is ratio level?

A

This level has all the properties of interval data, but it also has a true zero point, allowing for meaningful ratios between values.
Example: Height (in centimeters).

58
Q

What is a p-value?

A

the probability of something to occur

59
Q

What is a t-test?

A

The t-test- compare means of two groups - interval level data for the dependent variable (means)

60
Q

What is ANOVA?

A

F test for the difference in the means of more than 2 groups- interval level dependent data

61
Q

What is Chi-square?

A

Nominal level data (ratio of expected and observed)

62
Q

What is regression?

A

used when one wishes to predict the value of one variable based on the value of one or more other variables
ex. one might wish to predict the possibility of passing the credentialing examination based on grade point average (GPA) from a graduate program.
