Week 4 Discussion: Designs - A Plan to Study for the Truth (graded- 50 points)

Week 4: Assigned Readings
Houser, J. (2018). Nursing research: Reading, using, and creating evidence (4th ed.). Sudbury,
MA: Jones and Bartlett.
 Chapter 2: The Research Process and Ways of Knowing
 Chapter 6: Selecting an Appropriate Research Design

Purpose
This week's graded topics relate to the following Course Outcomes (COs).
 CO 2: Apply research principles to the interpretation of the content of published research
studies. (PO 4 & 8)
 CO 4: Evaluate published nursing research for credibility and significance related to
evidence-based practice. (PO 4 & 8)

Discussion
This week we learned how research designs are different and help us to objectively study nursing
problems; the key is to decide which type of research and design will serve the purpose or intent
to find a solution. After completing Week 4 readings and lesson, answer the following:
 Reflect on your learning about Quantitative and Qualitative research; share two ways that
helped you understand how they are different.
 Choose one category of study design that you found interesting and describe; include
what you learned about the design and how you believe it can help study nursing
problems.
 Refer back to your clinical nursing priority problem and evidence you located for your
week 3 assignment:
o The nursing-evidenced practice (NEBP) committee has requested for you to make
a recommendation to the team: Describe the type of research and the design that
you believe would be the best way to study your problem. Discuss your rationale.


Professor,

“Qualitative research is a naturalistic approach to research in which the focus is on understanding
the meaning of an experience from the individual’s perspective (Houser, 2018, p. 35).” The
researcher is exploring the perspective from the eye of the participant to gain their knowledge
and insight on an issue. Sometimes, that background information helps the researcher develop a
premise for a prospective quantitative research project. Qualitative research can also be used
discover trends or find the deeper reasons for certain issues a person or group is experiencing.

“Quantitative research is a traditional approach to research in which variables are identified and
measured in a reliable and valid way (Houser, 2018, p. 34).” The information obtained from this
research can be used as statistical data of several variables such as behaviors, attitudes, opinions,
or choices to discover patterns or support facts. Quantitative data is a structured method of
collecting surveys, interviews, studies, and observations.
