Research Paper
For this week, you will be completing a
research appraisal about a women’s health topic in which you may be
interested. The purpose is to complete only a synthesis of the topic. To
start, only look at studies that are specific to your women’s health
topic. Your appraisal will assist in finding the most current evidence.
Remember, this is only for the purpose of synthesis. Simplicity is key
to a successful evaluation. Below is a way to assist you in compiling
your significant articles. Your table should only contain 5 articles.
Finalize your findings in 1–2 pages and submit with your evaluation
table.

In the headings for the columns, include the following:

1. Citation: Author, year, title
2. Conceptual Framework: Theoretical basis for study
3. Design/Method: Indicate design and describe what was done in the study
4. Sample/setting: Number, characteristics, attrition rate, and why
5. Major variables studied and their definitions: Independent/dependent variable
6. Measurement: What scales were used to measure the outcome variables (e.g., name of scale, author, reliability info)
7. Data analysis: What stats were used to answer the clinical question
8. Findings: Statistical findings or qualitative findings (one for every statistical test mentioned in data analysis)
9. Appraisal/Worth to Practice: Strengths and
   limitations of the study, risk or harm if study intervention or findings
   implemented, and feasibility
