Name: NURS350-Summary (Abstract) of Study
Description: This rubric is used to evaluate the the abstract of a quantitative and qualitative research article in NURS350. The rubric is set up to score each research article (quantitative and qualitative) separately and provide one cumulative grade. For each research article, there are 6 categories to assess: type of research, research questions & hypothesis, sample, setting, findings, and mechanics.
