PEER REVIEWING IN EVIDENCE BASED PROJECTS 2
Week# 11 Assignment 1: Which Tools Shall You Use?
Peer reviewing of articles is an important duty for two main reasons. First, it ensures only valid articles are published thereby reducing inaccurate studies or forged findings. Secondly, it facilitates the sharing of information that can enhance studies and findings before they are published. There are various peer-reviewing techniques for evidence-based practices, however, the two most common are the use of surveys and the use of questionnaires.
Peer review tools for my EBP proposal
For my proposal, I have selected to use the two tools mentioned. Surveys are easy to conduct and require little to nil expertise (Atkinson et al., 2017). The technique will be crucial when I am reviewing literature for my study as it will allow me to collect as much information as I want without going into the details of the articles that I am reviewing. I will use the method to interview other researchers who have written on the same topic as I have. The interview process will allow me to gather as much information as possible as to what the researchers think of my topic; the validity of my topic. It will also allow me to gather information on how I can improve my study.
I will also use the method to collect information from other researchers who have interacted or come into contact with publications similar to my proposed research topic. Throughout carrying out studies, researchers came into contact with data or information that does not concern what they are studying. By having sit-downs with other researchers, I will be able to tap from such researchers and get ways to ensure that my study findings are relevant.
The second peer-reviewing technique that I will use is the use of questionnaires. The majority of time in evidence-based practice, researchers utilize questionnaires since they utilize the qualitative approach. Questionnaires allow researchers to gather information from their study subjects as well as from non-participants of studies (Panczyk et al., 2017). Two of the main reasons as to why I will use the questionnaire peer review tool are that it will cut on costs and that it is simple to administer. I plan to use the questionnaire technique to gather as much information from my peers on what they think of my subject topic and the details of the topic. Also, it will be possible for me to know if there is previous literature that concerns my study based on the response on the questionnaires. Previous literature will help in the collection of information that can validate my proposed study.
Peer reviewing is an important aspect of validating studies and their findings. It allows other researchers or students to scrutinize an article before it is published. It helps in the validation of studies. For my EBP proposal, I will use the survey and questionnaire peer review tools to help in validating my studies. The two methods are effective as they are simple and cheap to administer. It will be possible for me to gather information on how I can improve my research as well as gather information on what people think of my topic.
