Appropriate articles to use
Please note that you MUST use
research papers for this assignment,
and for assessment task 3. General
discussion papers, CPE (continuing
professional education) papers, and
clinical guidelines, although very
useful in normal professional
practice, are NOT appropriate for
this assessment task. Look for:
Primary research: articles
describing a single study, written by
the researchers themselves. These
articles will explain how the study
was carried out and the results of
that study.
Secondary research: systematic
reviews, with or without meta-
analysis or meta-synthesis, which
bring together a number of studies
to provide a bigger picture and,
depending on the rigor of the
review, stronger evidence.
