Qualitative Review

c) What is the null and alternative hypothesis? Do the data results lead you to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis?

D: The client discussed interest in living in an Oxford house after his release from PWC ADC (6/19). The client stated that if he was released from PWC ADC today, he would not return or violate probation. The client discussed that being on probation is not an issue for him because he learned from his mistakes and is confident that he can remain sober long-term.

On reading this article and identifying the study, there was a clear insight on how death and dying, and even improved health, impacted those nurses (Conte, 2014). Nurses, who worked closely with their patients, through the perils and suffering, culminating of death and losses, had grief not readily explored to enable that comfort zone (Conte, 2014).

The qualitative approach to research is anchored in the ideographic tradition and seeks to focus on the insider's world and the meanings that are attached to behaviour. While this is a general view of qualitative studies each qualitative design has unique foci. Hudacek (2008) examined the concept of caring in the work of nurses using a phenomenological design. Phenomenology gives attention to the subjective social reality. It gives value to the individual experience of the actor even within highly structured organizations. It is through the everyday experiences that meaning is constructed. The use of phenomenology is therefore highly consistent with the attempt to understand the meaning of caring. The design and the stated purpose of the researcher are highly congruent. The researcher noted that the purpose of the study was to "describe the dimensions of caring." Phenomenology is useful for unearthing the individuals understanding of their own behavior and consequently the meaning they attach to particular actions.

Special care and attention must be given to infants in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) because of their small size and the health complications they face. One particular challenge faced by health care professionals in the NICU is the management of pain for preterm babies. Preterm infants must undergo a wide range of tests, procedures, and, often, life-saving measures during their hospitalizations, which not only subjects them to pain, but pain-related stress and anxiety. This has an impact on the infants themselves, as well as on the family members and friends who are involved in their care (Smith, Steelfisher, Salhi, & Shen, 2012). The purpose of this paper is to examine the problem of pain management among preterm NICU patients and propose the implementation of kangaroo care as a pain management technique.

Part B: How might each of the following concepts affect the results of the study?

This is an academic critique of a qualitative article published in 2012, by Maj-Britt Raholm, RN, MNsc, PhD. In the article, “The ethics of presence when bathing patients in a nursing home”, the researcher intends to create a more profound understanding of the ethics of presence from the nurses perspective (Raholm, 2012, p. 30). The study will be analyzed for the credibility, conformability, and dependability to assess the strengths and weaknesses of the article. Based on the analysis a recommendation for evidence-based practice will be advised or rejected.

Described below is a critical appraisal of a qualitative article by Lisa Booth using the frame-work suggested by Ryan, Coughlan and Cronin 2007 to establish its believability, robustness, credibility and integrity (Ryan, Coughlan & Cronin, 2007).

In the first article chosen, “Why are Nurses Leaving? Findings From an Initial Qualitative Study on Nursing Attrition,” the research method used was qualitative. The specific type of research design used was phenomenology. The participants were interviewed about their person experience of what it was like working as a registered nurse. The research question for this study was, “What is the experience of RNs who leave clinical nursing?” The sample is registered nurses (RN) with a minimum of 1 year of clinical practice and no clinical practice in the last 6 months. The sample size was ten, which were a majority of females (80%),

a. The study was designed as an experimental research by using independent and dependent variables.

Identify any limitations or flaws in the research design. For example, is the study repeatable and objective?

The methodology used in the work is based on a qualitative case study, in order to describe, compare and prove how the songs can be used as a tool to ease the English learning in the Pre-Primary class. The qualitative method is important because people who practise it try to find an example of participants’ reactions to explain what people who are investigated feel and the way they think. People who practise this method also want to understand which is the reaction of the participants when they are provided in a meaningful environment Austin

Qualitative and quantitative research assume an instrumental part in item advancement. Information acquired from the quantitative research incorporate client inclinations, socioeconomics, and advertise measure offers imperative data which is utilized for business basic leadership. Qualitative research gives information which is utilized to the plan of an item, and client prerequisites. Both of the methodologies have qualities and shortcomings which ought to be tended to when doing an exploration procedure. There are advantages which are collected from consolidating the two techniques. Quantitative investigation is communicated in numbers. Information in quantitative research is in numeric frame, so measurable tests are pertinent. The depiction of measurements which can be utilized incorporates standard deviation, mean, and middle. Measurable investigation empowers the specialists to infer huge certainties. In this view, the paper will talk about Qualitative and quantitative research concentrating on their focal points and inconveniences.

I will be investigating the following research question: how is coming out as a non-heterosexual person framed and preformed in YouTube videos? Mills (1959) explains that, as researchers we must learn to use our life experiences in our intellectual work (196). I have never come out in a YouTube video. However, as a person that does not identify as heterosexual I have experienced coming out in a variety of contexts. As such, I hope to lean on this personal experience to shape my craftsmanship (Mills, 1959: 196; van den Hoonaard, 2014: 156; Inglis, 2010: 509).
