Section 2 of Methods
This week, you will submit a draft of Section 2 of the Methods section of your project. Remember that Section 2 includes the following information:
- Instruments: What instruments will you use? What evidence or research exists for the instruments? Have they been determined to be valid or reliable? If so, for what groups? If you are using an instrument or tool that has not been well studied, ensure that you provide evidence to justify its use in your project.
- Data Collection: Are there any other points of data that you will be collecting that have not previously been mentioned? The emphasis in this section should be on fully describing specifically what data you will be using in your study. Part of the purpose of doing this is to detect flaws in the plan before they become problems in the research.
- Data Analysis Plan: How will you analyze your data? This section should explain in some detail how you will manipulate the data that you assembled to get at the information that you will use to answer your question. When describing statistical tests, ensure that you have specified the appropriate information, such as significance level and type of confidence interval (one or two sided). Additionally, describe what meaning the “output” of any statistical tests will help answer and how it relates to your PICOT/clinical problem.
Also include:
· Describe the instruments that you will use to conduct your study, discussing reliability and validity
· Provide an overview of the data collection and analysis plan including statistical tests that will be used
· Used correct spelling, grammar, and professional vocabulary. Cited all sources using APA format. No errors. PLEASE ADD REFERENCES
