Nursing Research
Nursing research is a methodical procedure of survey that utilizes appropriate strategies
to provide impartial, dependable solutions to queries about the nursing practice (LoBiondo-
Wood & Haber, 2017). Nurses do investigations to create the answers of different problems and
define the procedure, and may assess different methods for efficiency (Moule, Aveyard &
Goodman, 2016). Nurses utilize different evidences for the nursing practice for the assessment of
the patient’s health status, diagnose patient condition, create care strategies, evaluate mediations,
and monitor patient’s reactions (Boswell & Cannon, 2018).
Study selection
Mollon, D., Fields, W., Gallo, A. M., Wagener, R., Soucy, J., Gustafson, B., & Kim, S. C.
(2012). Staff practice, attitudes, and knowledge/skills regarding evidence-based practice
before and after an educational intervention. The Journal of Continuing Education in
Nursing, 43(9), 411-419.
In the field of nursing, clinicians require knowledge and skill for the evidence-based
practice. Their knowledge and skill vary reliant on their degree of education, experience level,
and interest. In this study article, nurse’s baseline and practice regarding post-education,
knowledge, skills and attitudes have been assessed. The article found that the online modules for
self-learning approaches were not effective in enhancing nurse’s skills and abilities for evidence-
based practice (Karvinen et al., 2017). However, the article concluded that involving evidence-
based practice into practice in an organization will require time and assistance from the leader
which will eventually develop and help in promoting safety of the patient, health outcomes and
satisfaction of the employees (Mollon et al., 2012).

Credibility
The authors and researchers of the following journal article have the requisite medical
and academic qualifications. There is no indication of any conflict of interest for the researchers
that could involve prejudice in the layout of the analysis or the interpretation of the findings.
Evidence for peer review of this research article as it has a sequential page number, volume
number and issue numeral (43(9)) is present in the reference and year of review (June 2009) is
also mentioned in the journal paper.
Design
The quantitative aspect of the analysis in the abstract section is clearly stated. A pre- and
post-survey concise model was used to evaluate the nurses ' skills. An alternative justification
was also given for the preference of model concerning the application of nurses ' knowledge and
skills for evidence-based care. The reliability of the instrumentation was defined and figures and
comparisons were provided. A comprehensive procedure is defined for using each instrument in
the measurement. The journal provides sufficient detail to determine the sample's
appropriateness and attributes. Optimal sample details and documents are given to ensure
adequate applicability.

Ethical Issues
Appropriate safety measures have been introduced to safeguard participants from any
possible harm. It is clearly stated that there was informed consent from the participants. When
vulnerable participants were included, the informed consent and research protocols were given
special attention. After the authorization by the institutional review board (IRB), data collection
was initiated. The packages of data collection included a written letter of approval, an EBPQ
sample, a statistical questionnaire, and a pre-addressed return packet. Steps were taken to protect
participant’s identity, confidentiality, and privacy. Participants could also send assessments via
internal mail if it was uncomfortable to use the collection box or if they felt privacy was
compromised. Participants have been recruited identified and equitably allocated to categories.
Participants are selected through meetings of unit personnel, flyers posted, email alerts and
newsletters from hospitals.
Human Rights
Participant security in health-related research has grown in a well-articulated legal
structure backed by legislative guidelines, treaties, and laws in increasing numbers of
jurisdictions (Amon, Baral, Beyrer & Kass, 2012). The ethical standards help guarantee that
authors and researchers are publicly accountable. Protection norms for human participants are
needed to ensure that publicly funded researchers are accountable to the public (Davies, 2019).
