articles for this assignment:
· Qualitative research article
· Informative article
· Concept Analysis
· Quality Improvement Project (avoid studies that indicate it is project)
· Project Development/Implementation (Project/ Observational study that discusses a project (many times these are identified as projects for Doctorate of Nursing Practice requirements, you may find the credential DNP behind the first authors name; however, some authors with DNP credentials may engage in primary research so look for the word “Project” in the article, sometimes found in the abstract or under the heading “Methods”
· The title or purpose of the article states “Review of the literature OR narrative article OR integrated/integrative reviews OR systematic review of the literature”. (Please note: the review of the literature is a step in the nursing research process, so you may find review of the literature as a heading in the text of an appropriate research article but avoid if it is in the title or purpose of the article.)
· Research report in a secondary source (i.e. not written by the researchers that conducted the actual study) or secondary analysis
· A research report published as part of an article/module for continuing education units (you may find “CEU” or “CU” on the first page of the publication and may have a short quiz at the end of the article)

· Clinical Guidelines
· Systematic reviews
· Secondary analysis
· Meta-analysis
· Meta-synthesis
· Meta-aggregate
· Program/Project Evaluation-***this is a common error that has been made in the past; please make sure your selected article is not a program or project evaluation.
· A survey/tool/questionnaire/instrument development study (typically the article will indicate that the research focus is tool development in the title or purpose of the study. The purpose may state: The purpose of this research is to test/develop a survey/tool/ questionnaire/measurement/instrument to measure____ or something similar)
**Faculty highly recommends that you avoid studies with large data sets (refer to page 299 of your text )multiple variables (multivariate analysis with resultant data) or higher level statistical analysis. Previous students seem to be more challenged when choosing studies with large data sets. Your faculty may notify you that your selected article has a more challenging data analysis procedure and to submit another article. However, your group may have an advanced statistical background and may select not to submit another article. If this is the case for your group, please discuss this with your assigned coach.
Do not select these articles (Please note: if you select one of the following articles it will not be approved and result in a 2-point deduction (please do not request an exception as this will not be given):
