best for qualitative

middle range
addresses specific conepts in a specific field of nursing
practice
narrow scope, specific population
nursing metaparadigm
person
health
environment
nursing
grounded theory
theory as a source
lit review is minimal before research, majority done after
completed in an area where there is little/no research
theory based on observations, purposeful sampling
ethnographic method
embedding self in culture
case studies
one situation generalized to the rest of the population
community based participatory research
observe, derive meaning, then test
inclusion criteria
things someone has that youu want in yhe study
exclusion criteria

phenomenology

(fieldwork, interviews)
experimental quantitative research
determines causality
componenets needed for an RCT
randomization
manipulation
control
internal validity
did the independent variable really make an impact or were there confounding factors
external validity
the degree to which the results of the study are generalizable to other populations
solomon 4 group
inductive framework
qualitative
generated as outcome of research
deductive framework
: quantitative
theory is tested in research
EBP
: using existing knowledge, translating what’s known, answer already exists, uses it
Research
Research: Qualitative and Quantitative, develops a question and solves unanswered
question
quality improvement
: continuous evaluation, guidelines in practice
example of interval data
temperature
negative to positive numbers
example of ratio data
((annot go below zero)) 0 and positive numbers

peer debriefing (assistance from peer researcher)
referential adequacy(other sources of data to compare)
member checks(participants review results)
