Evidence-Based Practice / Unit 7   EBP 0939 short lesson, about 20 seconds

The Effect on the Reader

Captions available

The idea

Appraisal of qualitative work asks whether the results are plausible and believable, and whether the reader is imaginatively drawn into the experience described.

In practice

An account that conveys what the experience was like to someone who has not had it.

Where people slip

This criterion has no counterpart in quantitative appraisal and is not decoration. Conveying the experience is part of what the work is for.
