Document Summary
Lecture 2 - foundations in scholarly writing and research. In health promotion, designing messages that are clear based on best evidence currently available. Representative studies are generalizable to population of interest. Qualitative research may still be high quality with small in size. An important part of knowledge translation is accurate representation. The research question is a purpose statement. Sick kids has great knowledge translation opportunities. You should have references to back up most statements. Do not cherry pick data - you cannot ignore studies that disagree with you. Which is better is dependent on the situation. 8-15 articles would be reasonable for a scoping review. Dr. burke believes that your research question should guide quantitative and qualitative choice. You shouldn"t say i"m a ______________ researcher. In the purpose statement you should start to introduce operational definitions. In the methods section, you should go into detail. Because it hasn"t been done before, is not a good enough reason.
