The topic is Pain Management (ex., ethics, mind/body strategies, etc.) You are going to be asked to stay within that topic but your research should go in on a more specific area. This is so you can be creative and so you can better your appraisal skills. For example, falls could look into patients in an assisted living versus in an acute setting and their injuries. Look for an area that generates enough information to guide your entire paper (15-20 pages worth).
As you can see from the rubric, you will need to list 3 reasons on the significance this topic has to nursing and/or research. Mention the population and the research question in order to receive full points for the introduction of this study.
You will need to critique at least 8 of your 10 articles. This is the bulk of your paper. Aim for about a paragraph for each of your selected articles. Group the papers according to similarities: research questions, population, tools used to measure the variables identify the level of data they will collect and which statistical analytical tests will be used–comment on their appropriateness. Also, identify the following: sample size, internal validity, external validity, reliability of all research tools, and power analysis as identified in the papers.
