Discussion 2 Theory

Critically appraise a qualitative and quantitative research design – Please select two research articles (qualitative and quantitative) and critically appraise both of them.   

Once you chose your research articles, answer the following questions for both studies: 

1. Is the evidence from a known, reputable source?

2. Has the evidence been evaluated in any way? If so, how and by whom?

3. How up-to-date is the evidence?

4. How was the outcome measured?

5. What implications does the study have for your practice? Is it relevant?
