Part 1

For this part of the assignment, use the “Evidence Table” from the appendix of the SNHS Doctoral Project Prospectus (DPP) to list articles that will help inform the topic you selected for your course project in the Unit 3 assignment.

Search the Capella library databases for a minimum of five peer-reviewed articles that you will use for your project topic. Complete the evidence table fully for these articles, providing all the required information.

Provide a one-sentence overview of the main topic of the article.

Discuss if the article reports on a comprehensive literature review that was completed to inform the topic.

Provide the research questions and discuss the research methodology used.

Analyze the theoretical basis and/or conceptual framework used in the study.

Report on the study findings and propose a possible application this article could have to your own project topic.

[u05d1] Unit 5 Discussion 1

Levels of Evidence

Think about your own project topic for this course. In your initial post, discuss the three different levels of evidence you could apply to your own paper in this course.

What are the levels of evidence used in the peer-reviewed articles that you found?

Are there white papers or opinion papers on your topic?

Is there an industry expert you could consult?

What did you find that is not evidence based, but could be appropriate?

Provide your findings for all three levels of evidence.

Post according to the Faculty Expectations Response Guidelines. Be sure to include at least one APA-formatted citation (in-text plus full reference). The citation should be from materials you have read during this unit. It may be from course textbooks, assigned readings, or an outside source.
