Identify the problem statement or statement of purpose of the article.

Please select any nursing research article from any one of the scientific journals found in the Nursing-Related Databases and Journals list. Select an article from an area that you are interested in or from the field you are working in. Using the article selected, construct a critique of the article, 6 to 10 pages (including cover page and references).

The critique should

• identify the problem statement or statement of purpose of the article

• describe the participants being studied, stating inclusion and exclusion criteria

• discuss the sampling issues, such as probability or nonprobability and number of subjects used

• identify the study setting—where data collection occurred

• discuss informed consent—whether the participants were fully informed, how their consent was obtained, and any other ethical considerations

• identify the hypothesis or research question

• identify the research design—for example, experimental or nonexperimental; descriptive, exploratory, explanatory, or predictive?

• identify research variables, both independent and dependent

• comment the on article’s literature review—how the study data were analyzed (what statistical measures were used)

• describe the results of the study and appropriateness of the methods used; include study limitations

• accurately critique comments on level of evidence used, nursing theory, and implications for nursing practice or research

• discuss how the research findings can be applied to the clinical area
