Explain Research Processes for: • Sensitivity, Specificity and Predictive Values • Identifying Population that is Expected to Have the NDx • Implementation Studies • Use of Valid and Reliable Instruments • Prevalence Studies • Single or Multiple Settings
Published Studies as Guides • Examples given in research chapter • Search literature: • US National Library of Medicine (free) • www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?db=pubmed • CINAHL, nursing literaturewww.ebscohost.com/cinahl/
