Qualitative Research Study Design

Case study was research strategy adopted for this study. It is one of the types of qualitative research study (Creswell, 1998). According to Rubin and Babbie (2013) which view case study as a particular examination of phenomenon. In this study case study explore the influence e-resources has on the professional development and classroom practices of beginner teachers and providing a detailed information through multiple source of data collection methods such as semi-structured interview, observation, data analysis and research journal.However,Creswell,2007 highlighted that case study is a qualitative approach that explore bounded system of phenomenon over time. More so, Yin (2009) validates that case study is an empirical

Selecting a qualitative research design best suits the outline of our intended study. As we are wanting to investigate the perceived harms of e-cigarettes by users and non-users this design will compliment the data we are looking to obtain. Within the qualitative design we have selected phenomenology as our specific design. The object of this study is to focus on the beliefs and experiences of the participants. This will be accomplished through the phenomenological research design. An interpretive approach will allow the researcher’s an opportunity to draw conclusions and gain a further understanding of the individuals experiences related to e-cigarettes.

Nurses are responsible in providing holistic, quality care to their clients. In order to effectively provide such care Boswell and Cannon (2009, p. 2 & 7) states that nurses must base their provision of care on the most current, up-to-date health information available and sound nursing knowledge. This is where evidence-based practice (EBP) comes in. Polit and Beck (2010, p. 4) defined EBP as "the use of the best clinical evidence in making patient care desicions". This usually comes from research conducted by nurses and other healthcare professionals. Thus it is pertinent that research reports are critically analyzed.

To answer Research Question 2, the researcher analyzed the responses of childcare staff on the SIS. Wage and program quality data were collected from the Supplemental Information sheet (SIS) created by the researcher (see Appendix B). Two levels of quality were: Level 1 corresponded to state licensing such as acquiring a Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) license; Level 2 corresponded to accreditation from the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC).

In this assignment, various research with regards to different agendas will be discussed and broken down into the approaches that were conducted and the results of these researches. The first study that will be analyzed will be; Factors Involved in Recovery from Schizophrenia: A Qualitative study of Thai Mental Health Nurses. The authors for this research study were; Kaewprom, Chettha; Curtis, Janette; Deane, Frank P.

This study will be quantitative in nature. It will be an observational retrospective cohort study using an existing National VA database to examine differences in health service utilization by gender for U.S. veterans diagnosed with AKI while hospitalized at Veterans Affairs Medical Centers (VAMCs). Differences in short-term outcomes, such as length of inpatient stay and inpatient mortality, by gender, will also be examined. This study will also thoroughly describe study population of hospitalized VA patients diagnosed with AKI.

As a long-time Nutritional Coordinator of the Morgiana high school, I would like to propose to the Director of food services of our school that a formal analytical report be prepared in order to serve healthier school lunches in our school cafeteria. Over the past several years, I have observed that our school lunch program serves lunches that, for the most part, consist of fatty and sugary foods that supply little more than empty calories to our students. We need to change our school menu so that our students can learn and perform better, both academically and athletically.

A qualitative study delves into a social or human problem in hopes to formulate a theory about that phenomenon. Paterson et al. (2005) performed a qualitative study that formulated a theory on how male nursing students learn to care. The researchers discovered how and what aspects perpetuated males to learn to care for patients empathetically while in nursing school. This paper will critique the above study noted and provide rationales.

The article I chose to discuss is: Davis, H. A., & Bowman, S. L. (2015). Examining experiences of weight-related oppression in a bariatric sample: A qualitative exploration.

Despites public health interventions, the rate of obesity increases dramatically in the nation. In New Jersey, approximately 24.7% of children aged 10 to 17 are obese or overweight1. Although a multitude of school-based nutrition program exists in New Jersey, the rate of obesity remains high. School-based programs tempt to omit several factors influencing children’ dietary behavior. Nutrition interventions in communities are critical to produce a change. Therefore The Rak Foundation for Nutritional Awareness (RFNA) intends to act by applying distinct strategies.

The researchers used convenience sampling by recruiting women from a metropolitan breast center in the Midwest US, newly diagnosed with stage 0-II breast cancer, not yet treated.

The program monitoring process will be reviewed and the participant expectations from the use of the meal programs as well.

Research Question: Does inadequate education play a role in incorrect use of inhalation devices in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)?

My Research Project focused on the ways in which the Australian South Sea Islander (ASSI) community reflect the historical events of blackbirding; a topic which I was inspired to investigate this due to my Pacific Islander heritage. Between 1863 and 1904, people were brought to Australia from throughout the Pacific, often through unscrupulous methods like kidnapping, to be used as a source of cheap labour. I investigated the history surrounding the labour trade in Queensland as well as current and past issues faced by ASSI people. Interviews and government publications revealed that the issues of educational attainment and health are prominent issues for the ASSI community. These sources also highlighted
