Decide on a workplace issue or topic that interests you, for example, smoking in adolescents.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2. Read around your topic area until you feel you have read widely enough to understand your topic. Write about what you have learnt about your topic in the Background section of your introduction section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">3. Once you have written your Background section, you will be able to identify what you intend to study, perhaps the evidence you have read is not clear, indicating that a thorough review of the literature would be appropriate. From this you can then decide on a research question which will guide your research. Remember, your Dissertation is a research project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4. Once you have decided on a clear research question, you need to search the literature again to identify primary research articles to help you answer your research question. It is very important to remember that these articles must be NEW articles. They must not be articles that you have already discussed in your Background section. It is difficult to state exactly how many articles you need but approximately 6-8 articles are required at undergraduate level. However, it is important that these are the most relevant for answering your research question.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">5. Once you have chosen your articles, you need to critique them using an appropriate critiquing framework. You need to do this to ensure that these articles are good research and worthy to be included in your work.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">6. Once you are happy with the quality of your 6 \u2013 8 articles, you then need to examine what these articles are telling you. What are the findings of these pieces of research? How do they help you to answer your question?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Use these questions as a guide:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>What are some of the areas of interest that you have at work?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What are some of the areas of your practice that you would like to develop further?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Where do you have concerns about poor patient care?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What are some of the factors that inhibit good patient care?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Where is new technology changing healthcare?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What are some of the national and local policies that are influencing healthcare?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What demographic changes are affecting healthcare?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What assumptions do you have about the reasons for the problem and how it might be resolved?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What questions are beginning to arise from the thoughts you are having already and where might there be a key research question on which to base your Dissertation?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Critical Appraisal<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tools Critical appraisal of research is an integral stage of conducting a literature review. Critical appraisal aims to identify potential threats to the validity of the research findings from the literature and provide consumers of research evidence the opportunity to make informed decisions about the quality of research evidence. There are many tools and frameworks available to assist us with critical appraisal of research. There are different tools available for different research designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>You will need to describe in detail:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>How did you search the literature? Describe your literature search strategy<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What databases did you use? Give your reasons.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What search terms did you use? Include the Boolean search tables here. Include search results.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What inclusion and exclusion criteria did you use? Provide a rationale for each<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How did you screen and select your final studies for inclusion in the review? You should present this process using a PRISMA diagram<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What critical appraisal tool did you use? Give your reasons for this.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What method did you use to analyse your data? E.g. thematic analysis.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Discuss the ethical implications of literature review as a research methodology:<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ethical issues involved in using other people\u2019s research findings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The ethical need to be sure that information used in a literature review is collected ethically.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The need to be transparent in not claiming the work of others as the literature review author\u2019s own work.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Assignment Task Briefly, in your Dissertation, you need to: 1.
