In Weeks 5 and 6, you explored quantitative research designs. In Week 7, you will examine qualitative and mixed methods research designs. For this Assignment, you will critique a quantitative and either a qualitative or a mixed methods research study and compare the types of information obtained in each.<\/p>\n<p><strong>To prepare:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 Select a health topic of interest to you that is relevant to your current area of practice- (Pediatric Nursing). The topic may be your Course Portfolio Project or a different topic of your choice.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 Using the Walden Library, locate two articles in scholarly journals that deal with your portfolio topic: 1) Select one article that utilizes a quantitative research design and 2) select a second article that utilizes either a qualitative OR a mixed methods design. These need to be single studies not systematic or integrative reviews (including meta-analysis and metasynthesis). You may use research articles from your reference list. If you cannot find these two types of research on your portfolio topic, you may choose another topic.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 Locate the following documents in this week\u2019s Learning Resources to access the appropriate templates, which will guide your critique of each article:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Critique Template for a \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Qualitative Study<\/li>\n<li>Critique Template for a \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Quantitative Study<\/li>\n<li>Critique Template for a \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Mixed-Methods Study<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u00b7 Consider the fields in the templates as you review the information in each article. Begin to draft a paper in which you analyze the two research approaches as indicated below. Reflect on the overall value of both quantitative and qualitative research. If someone were to say to you, \u201cQualitative research is not real science,\u201d how would you respond?<\/p>\n<p><ins><strong>To complete this Assignment:<\/strong><\/ins><\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 Complete the two critiques using the appropriate templates.<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 Write a 2- to 3-page paper that addresses the following:<\/p>\n<p>\u00b7 Contrast the types of information that you gained from examining the two different research approaches in the articles that you selected.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Describe the general advantages \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0and disadvantages of the two research approaches featured in the articles. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Use examples from the articles for support.<\/li>\n<li>Formulate a response to the \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0claim that qualitative research is not real science.
