COURSE
NURS3150 Foundations Nursing Research-Winter
Instructions
As a nursing professional, you will likely engage in research for your health care setting. Depending on the research question you seek to address, you might choose to use a qualitative research design. Understanding when and why it is appropriate to choose a qualitative research design will be important as you develop research skills for nursing practice. As you continue throughout this course, think about what considerations you should keep in mind when choosing to engage in qualitative research. In what ways might qualitative research be more preferred than quantitative research for informing nursing practice?
For this Discussion, be sure to review the qualitative article by Vretare and Anderzen-Carlsson (2020). Then, view this week’s Qualitative Research Design PowerPoint webinar that describes each step of the qualitative research process and different approaches used to conduct qualitative research.
You will need to prepare and post a 350-word response that addresses the following:
- Qualitative research often is viewed as not having the same rigor and adherence to objective standards as quantitative studies. Using the references provided to assist you, prepare an argument to either support or refute this claim and post it to the Discussion. In your response, explain if qualitative research does or does not have the controls needed to generate the results that contribute to the nursing knowledge base.
- Then, explain if qualitative research could be used to investigate the patient safety problem you identified in Week 1.

There are many other applications, but those are two blatant reasons for using qualitative research design. All research does not have to be empirical to show similarities, correlations, or information related to a topic.……..Please click the icon below to access entire solution at $5
