NURS 3150 Week 3 Assignment 2 Essay (Walden University)
Sample Brief: Qualitative studies utilize people’s personal experiences from their own viewpoint and in turn can be used in nursing practice to increase our understanding of a phenomenon of concern through qualitative approaches such as phenomenological research, grounded theory research, ethnographic research, exploratory-descriptive qualitative research, and historical research (Grove, Burns, & Gray, 2013). Many researchers think qualitative research studies do not have the same rigor and adherence to objective standards as quantitative research studies, but after reading this week’s resources I believe qualitative studies are worthy of consideration and can provide a deeper understanding of human thoughts and needs. The rigor of qualitative studies canbe found in the philosophical orientation of the researcher and the meticulous data collection, analysis, and awareness of potential bias with the philosophical approach used (Grove et al., 2013)

As I become more familiar with various research designs, I realize that the goal of all methods of medical research is to optimize patient care by generating new knowledge while maintaining the rights and interests of any human subjects involved (Izet, Ajila, & Smaila, 2014). So much is considered for a valuable and reliable study. This week’s focus involved the influence of music on the anxiety level of preoperative female patients planning to undergo gynecologic surgery (Labrague & McEnroe-Petitte, 2016). After reading the assigned resources, I found myself critiquing the study in ways that I wouldn’t have prior to this course.

Preview:
Developing a research study to maximize care for our patients and promote health and wellness within the community can be challenging. Choosing which type of research methodology to apply can be difficult if the researcher is unfamiliar with the characteristics of each type. Qualitative research is more difficult to analyze than quantitative research. With qualitative research it is impossible to precisely measure outcomes. It relates more to experiences and reasoning and involves an understanding of relationships between variables. Qualitative research may be described as somewhat of a starting point for further analysis of treatment or investigation of evidence based practices (EBP).

Qualitative Analyses: The analytic method you will use to analyze the narrative data for this Assignment is called content analysis. It requires you to read each student’s narrative and then code its content using the thematic categories on page 4 (Coding Scheme: Student Pet Peeve Data). Once you have completed the coding, you will need to describe the most common types of “pet peeves” that students have about their courses.
