Practice-based research in (allied) health care (Paperback)
By looking at the world around you with an open and critical mind, identifying areas of improvement, looking for explanations, and sharing knowledge and ideas, you can contribute to the development of your profession. Practice-based research in (allied) healthcare teaches you to specifically examine practical problems, appreciate existing research, critically assess scientific articles, and come up with solutions to practical problems. The research process is described in four parts and follows the student over the course of their journey. Part I examines the “why” of research in healthcare, the ethics and the value of evidence-based practice. Part II teaches you how to translate a practical problem into a good research question and how to write a project plan. Part III describes how to conduct your own research, up to and including analysing and presenting the results. It also covers quantitative designs, qualitative research, action research, design research and literature reviews.
