NURS540 Week 4 Research Proposal Project Design
NURS540 Week 4 Research Proposal Project Design
Design
For this section of your research proposal assignment, you will focus on the sampling, reliability, and validity of your research proposal. This section will include information on sampling, reliability, and validity.
The following components should be addressed in your paper this week:
Information on your sample
Sampling basic information (age, gender, criteria, etc.)
Sample size
Explain why your sample is appropriate for your study
Reliability
Explain how your data collection process is consistent and reliable
Explain why your measurement tool is reliable
Validity
Explain how you will ensure you have a valid sample
Explain how you tested the validity of your measurement tool
APA formatting, references, and citations are required.
Your research project design should be included as part of your final submission for your research proposal project in week 7 and your research proposal presentation in week 8. Use the feedback you receive from your instructor on your design to modify and improve before submission of your final project in weeks 7 and 8.
NURS540 Week 5 Research Proposal Project Implementation Plan
Implementation Plan
For this section of your research proposal assignment, you will focus on the implementation plan, which includes considerations for ethics, recruitment practices, and a plan for how you will collect your data. Please note that you will not explain how to analyze your data in this section, but rather how you will go about collecting the data.
The following components must be addressed:
Explain how you will ensure your research is conducted in an ethical manner
Include a copy of an informed consent that will be included for participants of your research proposal project (see pp. 202–203 for a sample)
Explain how you will recruit participants for your study, and how your recruitment process will remain ethical. Be sure to address any incentives (if applicable)
Explain what quantitative data you will collect and how you will go about collecting this data (survey, questionnaire, observation, etc.)
APA formatting, references, and citations are required.
Your research project implementation plan should be included as part of your final submission for your research proposal project in week 7 and your research proposal presentation in week 8. Use the feedback you receive from your instructor on your implementation plan to modify and improve before submission of your final project in weeks 7 and 8.
NURS540 Week 6 Research Proposal Project Data Analysis Plan
Data Analysis Plan
For this section of your research proposal assignment, you will carefully design a plan for analyzing your quantitative data. Explain in detail how you will go about analyzing your data. Be sure to:
Include definitions of all variables
Identify your null hypothesis and research hypothesis
Include the type of analysis to be conducted (correlation, t-test, confidence interval, regression, ANOVA, ANCOVA, etc.)
Explain why this type of analysis is most appropriate for your research
Identify the significance level (typically set to .05, but may be set to .01 or .10)
Explain what results you are looking for in your quantitative study (how will you know if you will accept or reject your null and research hypothesis?)
, references, and citations are required.
Your research project data analysis plan should be included as part of your final submission for your research proposal project in week 7 and your research proposal presentation in week 8. Use the feedback you receive from your instructor on your data analysis plan to modify and improve before submission of your final project in weeks 7 and 8.
