Ethics in Research

Ethics in Research

Today, scientists agree that good research is ethical in nature and is guided by a basic respect for human dignity and safety. However, this has not always been the case. Modern researchers must demonstrate that the research they perform is ethically sound.

Case Studies

Case Studies

There are many research methods available to psychologists in their efforts to understand, describe, and explain behavior and the cognitive and biological processes that underlie it.

Guidelines for Writing Outcome

Guidelines for Writing Outcome

When developing expected outcomes for a patient care plan, the nurse should adhere to the following recommendations:
Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation. The desired outcome should be realistic and achievable in the designated care timeframe. Expected outcomes should align with adjunctive therapies. The outcome should enhance care evaluation by...

Specialized Care Centers and Settings-II

Specialized Care Centers and Settings-II

Rural Health Centers
Rural health centers are specialized care facilities in remote locations with very few medical personnel. The primary care providers who run the centers are mostly Registered Nurse Practitioners. Here, emergency treatment is provided to critically ill or injured patients before they are transferred to the closest hospital. Fortunately, due to advancement in technology, many rural healthcare facilities and professionals have easy access to diagnostic and treatment...

Specialized Care Centers and Settings-I

Specialized Care Centers and Settings-I

Specialized care settings or centers are situated in convenient locations within the community and offer care to a specific group or population. They consist of daycare facilities, mental health facilities, rural health facilities, educational institutions, industries, shelters for the homeless, and rehabilitation facilities.
Daycare centers
They provide several functions. Some facilities care for healthy newborns and children whose parents work, while others are medically focused and care for...

Area of Science:

Health Services Research
Community Health
Chronic Disease Management

Background:

Federally funded exploratory research centers require rigorous evaluation.
Interdisciplinary teams in centers like the Center for Ohana Self-Management of Chronic Illness (COSMCI) present unique evaluation challenges.
Effective evaluation ensures research meets its purpose and achieves stated goals.

Purpose of the Study:

To outline the development of an evaluation strategy for a community-based chronic illness self-management research center.
To report lessons learned during the initial development phase of the COSMCI.
To highlight the importance of evaluation in the success of exploratory research centers.

Main Methods:

Utilized a systematic approach with formative and summative evaluation strategies.
Addressed key concerns including research structure, pilot project processes, faculty scholarly activity, dissemination, and sustainability.
Conducted interviews at year one and mid-point to assess process and effectiveness.

Main Results:

Evaluation themes included inclusion, timelines, realistic expectations, ongoing assessment, and team adaptability.
Timely identification of successes and challenges facilitated rapid interventions.
The evaluation process supported the early development stage of the research center.

Conclusions:

A robust evaluation process is essential for the effective development of research centers.
Ongoing evaluation enables the celebration of achievements and early problem detection.
Continuous evaluation supports adaptability and rapid response in exploratory research settings.
