Task:
You are required to critically appraise one of the research articles from the list in your Interact 2 site. The reason you need to critique research is to check a study’s readiness to be used in nursing practice. Through this assessment task you are required to use a systematic approach to objectively review a piece of research, and highlight the strengths and weaknesses of the research study. You must also reference your work using APA 6th referencing style. Use as many references as you need to support you argument.
Being able to critique a research article will help you to identify the best available evidence to be able to implement it into your nursing practice. How should you proceed? 1. Read through the research article a couple of times. 2. You may come across words/ statistical data that are new to you, as they may be research terminology. Take notes of those words and find the meaning to understand them and the concept of the study. 3. Check for rigour and readiness of the research for use in nursing practice. 4.
