Assignment Description:

Research Study Database Essay

Pivoting off your Module 2 PICOT development, conduct a deeper dive into the evidence. Working systematically (using your database filtering skills and keeping track of your steps), select a minimum of 10 research studies that support your project gap. These studies will become part of your literature review write-up for your final assignment and will be the foundation for the Chapter Two section of your manuscript.

Refer to the article, Critical Appraisal of the Evidence: Part III as a guide in completing the Evidence-Based table. For your convenience, the table has been extracted as a word document.

Complete the Table of Evidence activity by following these instructions:

· Using reliable databases, create a filter for (original data only) scholarly literature (peer-reviewed) and primary and secondary sources no older than five years.

· Essay:

· Restate your refined PICOT question.

· Explain the key terms you used to conduct your dive, what databases you used, and what your findings were. What steps did you take to narrow down your search? What are your next steps? What more do you need to do to continue your literature search to inform your Chapter Two Literature Review?

·

· Evidence-Based Table: Enter data from 10 of the most appropriate studies to support your scholarly project using the provided word document table. Include each of your scholarly selections in the Reference page.

· Do your best to critique the studies as you complete your Evidence-Based Table. Be detailed as this content is what you pull from to write your Literature Review for Chapter Two. Please see the YouTube video to help you navigate having both portrait and landscape in one document.
