Professional literature is filled with articles documenting research studies that have been done on topics of great value to health professionals.
For this assignment, you will choose one of two articles that are listed below, and are available through the SPC library. I have provided the information that you will need to locate the articles in the SPC databases. Please browse through each of the studies and select one that you are interested in carefully analyzing over the next few weeks.
Note that you will use your chosen study for this assignment as well as for both of the Analysis Assignments.
Your selection must be from these two studies – do not find your own study to use for the assignment. Only choose A or B below. Do not delay retrieving the article from the library. Be sure that the articles that you locate and browse to make your selection exactly match the information that is provided for each of them below.
