Doctor of nursing practioners graduates are expected to apply research findings and integrate nursing science into evidence-based practice. To develop your skills in this high level of nursing practice, you will analyze the strengths and weaknesses of a research study over the next several weeks using the concepts presented throughout the course.
To prepare: This final analysis will be a 5- to 7-page assignment that includes the following:
- A brief, 1- to 2-paragraph overview of the quantitative study that you selected. FOR THE PURPOSE OF THIS ASSIGNMENT THE ARTICLE CANNOT BE A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW.
