WORKSHOP FOCUS
Although there is a wealth of descriptive research in nursing to lay the foundation of intervention studies, it is estimated that only 25% of nursing research is focused on experimental studies. Acceleration of intervention research is needed to advance the science and improve quality of care and patient outcomes. Therefore, this 3-day intensive research workshop will focus on the essential elements of designing, conducting, analyzing, and funding intervention studies. Emphasis will be placed on:
- Experimental designs
- Minimizing threats to internal validity
- Primary components of theory-based interventions
- Conducting data analysis and measurement
- Writing successful grant applications to obtain funding
Benefits
- Content from expert faculty
