 Hi there, this video is for those of you specifically in nursing evidence-based practice who need to find both a qualitative study and a quantitative study on your topic. First you will want to start at the library's homepage www.library.ohiou.edu. From here you will click on databases and search send all. You will then need to connect with your Ohio information. Now that you are in send all, which is perfect for nursing related research, you will start by typing in your topic. For example, hand hygiene and infection. You can go ahead and search from here. Given the nature of the field, a good majority of your results will be quantitative in nature. Quantitative research focuses on numbers and statistical analysis. Research studies that are almost always quantitative are randomized control trials, cohort studies or clinical trials. For more information about study design and to learn more about what makes a qualitative or quantitative research study, please see my evidence-based practice guide. You can get to it from the R&BSN guide or directly from the library's website. Go to the last green tab, search for evidence, and then click on evidence-based practice. Once there, you will be looking for the tab that says study design. Okay, back to your send all search results. To expedite the process, in addition to your topic, you can add randomized control trials. For example, if you are looking for quantitative studies. Because we know randomized control trials are naturally quantitative. Qualitative studies are a little bit more difficult to search for in my opinion. Because qualitative studies focus on people's ideas and experiences, you will most likely be looking for surveys, questionnaires, or interviews because that is often how we gather qualitative information. So you can add that directly to your search or even include the word qualitative. You will have to look at the method or methodology section of your article to be sure of this study type. Because not all of the articles will tell you directly in the title or abstract whether it is indeed qualitative or quantitative. Good luck and feel free to get in contact with me if you have any other questions. All of my contact information can be found on either my R&BSN guide or the evidence guide in the last green tab on the left.
