Resource manual for nursing research : generating and assessing evidence for nursing practice / Denise F. Polit, PhD, FAAN, President, Humanalysis, Inc., Saratoga Springs, New York, and Adjunct Professor, Griffith University School of Nursing, Brisbane, Australia (www.denisepolit.com), Cheryl Tatano Beck, DNSc, CNM, FAAN, Distinguished Professor, School of Nursing, University of Connecticut, Storrs, Connecticut. - Eleventh edition. - Philadelphia: Wolters Kluwer, [2021] - vii, 529 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm
Article Abstract: "This Resource Manual for the 11th edition of Nursing Research: Generating and Assessing Evidence for Nursing Practice complements and strengthens the textbook in important ways. The manual provides opportunities to reinforce the acquisition of basic research skills through systematic learning exercises. We have emphasized exercises that involve careful reading and critical appraisal of actual studies. Critical appraisal skills are increasingly important in an environment that promotes evidence-based nursing practice. Moreover, the ability to think critically about research decisions is fundamental to being able to design and plan one's own study. An important feature of this Resource Manual is the online Toolkit, which offers important resources to beginning and advanced researchers. Our mission was to include easily adaptable tools for a broad range of research situations. In this edition, we have added many more resources for qualitative researchers and tools that can be used in quality improvement projects. In our own careers as researchers, we have found that adapting existing forms, figures, manuals, or protocols is far more efficient and productive than "starting from scratch." By making these tools available as Word files, we have made it possible for you to adapt tools to meet your specific needs, without the tedium of having to retype basic information. We wish we had had this Toolkit in our early years as researchers! We think seasoned researchers are likely to find parts of the Toolkit useful as well"-- Provided by publisher.
