Evidence-Based Practice / Unit 7   EBP 0935 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Are Data Collection Procedures Clear?

Captions available

The idea

Appraisal asks whether the sources of data and the means of verifying them are explicit, and whether the researcher's own roles and activities are explained.

In practice

A method section stating who was interviewed, how, and what the researcher's part in the setting was.

Where people slip

The researcher's role is part of the method here, and its absence from the report is itself a finding.
