Discussion: Validity in Quantitative Research Designs

Validity in research refers to the extent researchers can be confident that the cause and effect they identify in their research are in fact causal relationships. If there is low validity in a study, it usually means that the research design is flawed and the results will be of little or no value. Four different aspects of validity should be considered when reviewing a research design: statistical conclusion validity, internal validity, construct validity, and external validity. In this Discussion, you consider the importance of each of these aspects in judging the validity of quantitative research.

To prepare:

  • Review the information in Chapter 10 of the course text on rigor and validity.
  • Read the method section of one of the following quasi-experimental studies (also located in this week’s Learning Resources). Identify at least one potential concern that could be raised about the study’s internal validity.
    • Metheny, N. A., Davis-Jackson, J., & Stewart, B. J. (2010). Effectiveness of an aspiration risk-reduction protocol. Nursing Research, 59(1), 18–25.
    • Padula, C. A., Hughes, C., & Baumhover, L. (2009). Impact of a nurse-driven mobility protocol on functional decline in hospitalized older adults. Journal of Nursing Care Quality, 24(4), 325–331.
    • Yuan, S., Chou, M., Hwu, L., Chang, Y., Hsu, W., & Kuo, H. (2009). An intervention program to promote health-related physical fitness in nurses. Journal of Clinical Nursing, 18(10), 1,404–1,411.
  • Consider strategies that could be used to strengthen the study’s internal validity and how this would impact the three other types of validity.
  • Think about the consequences of an advanced practice nurse neglecting to consider the validity of a research study when reviewing the research for potential use in developing an evidence-based practice.

Discuss the changes made in the control mechanisms (external and internal) in order to control the management, financing, and quality in the long-term care systems.

Hi, are you able to complete the assignment below by tonight at 8:00 pm? Thanks

Assignment 3: Quantitative Annotated Bibliography

In this week’s discussion question you were asked to consider a potential problem (HEART DISEASE) that you would like to investigate through nursing research. For this assignment you will review current research from South’s Online Library and provide a critical evaluation on that research through an annotated bibliography. An annotated bibliography is a brief summary and analysis of the journal article reviewed. For more information on annotated bibliographies please visit Purdue’s OWL: https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/614/01/

A total of four annotated bibliographiesare to be submitted (not to exceed one page each). The articles must come from nursing scholarly literature and may not be older than 5 years since publication. Please note that the articles must be research based and reflect a quantitative methodology (review our reading assignments). Web pages, magazines, textbooks, and other books are not acceptable.  Each annotation must address the following critical elements:

  • Explanation of the main purpose and scope of the cited work
  • Brief description of the research conducted
  • Value and significance of the work (e.g., study’s findings, scope of the research project) as a contribution to the subject under consideration
  • Possible shortcomings or bias in the work
  • Conclusions or observations reached by the author
  • Summary as to why this research lends evidence to support the potential problem identified specific to your role option.

Re:Topic 2 DQ 1

Research can be difficult and confusing to manage. In any action, it is important to be prepared and organized, so that the data does not become overwhelming. Qualitative data is used to predict, control, describe, or explain data in order to improve nursing care (Polit & Beck, 2010, p. 77-80). This type of research is not only labor intensive, but it requires a lot of time and effort.  

One way that a researcher can manage and organize data is by preparing for the study prior to starting it. It is important to set a realistic time frame, and develop ways of tracking information. Prior to the study, the population being assessed needs to be determined. Ensuring that questions are simple, so that a large variation does not occur. With more common data, it will be easier to organize findings. Another method that researchers is to determine how they will group the collected information. Some information can be grouped by individual, but it can also be grouped by question. Determining all of this information prior to starting the research will benefit the individual (CER, n.d.).

organization assessment 3

Preparation

To prepare for this assessment, use the Capella Library and the Internet to study the impact of health system’s power structure on nursing, leadership, diversity related to empowerment in nursing and patient outcomes, and recruitment of a diverse workforce. You may also wish to look for examples of an Executive Summary on the Internet.

  • Identify a type of health care facility and examine the Web site and available public information to review the organization of the nursing department, nursing recruitment, and any information about the diversity of the system’s workforce and leadership.
    • You may use the health care setting in which you currently work or have worked in the past.
    • Describe the type of organization and region. For example: A major Midwestern teaching hospital or a rehabilitation hospital on the East Coast.
      • Do not report the name of the facility.

Deliverable:

Write a 2–3-page Executive Summary of Organizational Diversity.

Read the following scenario:

Scenario:

The city in which you work has undergone a significant population shift within the last 10 years, due to increased employment, education opportunities, and an influx of immigrants and refugees. To put the population shift in perspective, the local school district enrollment report states that nearly 100 languages are spoken in the schools, up from 32 languages in the last census. Senior leadership has asked you to examine all types of multiculturalism and diversity within your health care organization.

To do this, you will need to use a system perspective to examine the relationship between a diverse workforce and patient outcomes; identify gaps between best practices and the organization’s diversity policies, and make a recommendation for organizational change.

In the Executive Summary:

  • Analyze the impact of a diverse workforce on patient outcomes.
    • In what ways or situations might multiculturalism and diversity impact health care delivery or patient outcomes?
    • How is diversity defined in the organization?
  • Analyze how the health care system integrates diversity and multiculturalism into its practices.
    • Is the make-up of the organization’s leadership representative of the patient and employee populations? Is this important? What would you change?
    • Explain how multiculturalism and diversity can impact health care delivery or patient outcomes.
  • Analyze current recruitment and retention policies to identify gaps between best practices and current policies.
  • Assess the level of integration and importance of multiculturalism and diversity in a health care organization.
    • Are all types of diversity recognized and included?
    • Provide support for your position by including 2 or 3 examples of the integration of multiculturalism and diversity into the organization.
  • Recommend evidence-based changes to the organizational structure and systems leadership that empower a diverse workforce.
    • What changes would you champion as a health care leader to make the system more responsive to patients and the organization’s workforce?

Make your document easy to scan for readers by:

  • Using subheadings to organize content.
  • Using bullet points and phrases for main points, in addition to short, succinct paragraphs.
  • Including a visual, such as a graph, table, or chart.

Additional Requirements

  • Written communication: Written communication should be free of errors that distract from the overall message.
  • APA formatting: Resources and in-text citations should be formatted according to current APA style and formatting.
  • Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12 point, double-spaced.
  • Length: Summary report should be 2–3 pages.
