Mirandola speaks of a new and different God; a God unlike the medieval, punishing, and cruel one portrayed in earlier times. This work was written for the public even though
PICO: Depression Pico is a way to formulate clinical questions for research. It is composed of the population or problem, the intervention, a comparison group and the outcome. Using this approach, it is easier to formulate an answerable question. Once the question is formulated, search terms are selected and a search is performed. The results of the search are reviewed and the data analyzed to form the answer to the Pico question. The purpose of this paper is to formulate a question and research
Giovanni Pico della Mirandola was an Italian humanist, philosopher, scholar, Neo-Platonist and writer whose main passion was the reconciliation of philosophy and religion.

These are examples of syncretism because Pico uses a Classic example to explain a Christian concept--Classicism and Christianity are two very different beliefs/schools of thought. 2) Instead of focusing on man, medieval theories
PICO concept The PICO is a clinical hypothesis that focuses on the patient population or problem, the intervention, comparing intervention and the type of outcomes seen with the interventions. The patient population can be focused to a specific age group or group of people with a common health issue. An intervention is implemented to address the common age group or health issue for that patient population. Then another comparing intervention is necessary to evaluate if one or the other is better

All selected articles are relevant to the PICO question as they share a common objective, to evaluate the efficacy of health coaches on chronic disease self-management, and evaluated in each study either as a primary or secondary outcome; all studies were experimental designs – RCTs; two are pragmatic design studies, a design which enhances external validity thereby extending generalizability to the PICO population, Wayne et al. (2015), and Ma et al. (2013), researchers in these two studies were
