Summary
Most emergency medicine (EM) leaders publish education scholarship but perceive inadequate venues. Key barriers include suitability and methodology, with solutions like journal supplements and collaboration networks proposed to improve dissemination.
Area of Science:
- Medical Education Research
- Scholarship Dissemination
Background:
- Education research is a growing field with an unclear landscape for scholarship distribution.
- The adequacy of publication venues for education scholarship is not well-established.
Purpose of the Study:
- To identify the types of education scholarship produced.
- To determine where this scholarship is published.
- To explore barriers to publication and perceptions of venue adequacy.
Main Methods:
- An online survey was administered to emergency medicine (EM) education and academic leaders.
- The survey included multiple-choice, completion, and Likert scale items to assess publication practices and perceptions.
- Data were collected from 45 out of 59 (76.3%) participants.
Main Results:
- 73.3% of respondents published education scholarship, yet 65.9% felt venues were inadequate.
- Curricular innovations and original research were most published; peer-reviewed print journals were the most used venue.
- Common rejection reasons included "not suitable for this journal/venue," methodology, and sample size.
Conclusions:
- A majority of EM education leaders publish scholarship, but perceive a significant lack of suitable publication venues.
- Barriers to publication are evident, highlighting a need for improved dissemination strategies.
- Interventions such as journal supplements, online repositories, and networking could enhance the publication and dissemination of education scholarship.

Learning disabilities are cognitive disorders caused by neurological impairments that affect cognitive functions like language and reading, without indicating overall intellectual or developmental challenges. These disabilities differ from global intellectual or developmental disabilities as they are limited to distinct cognitive functions. Common learning disabilities include dysgraphia, dyslexia, and dyscalculia, each of which impacts unique aspects of learning.

01:11Guidelines 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...

The two sources for collecting information are primary and secondary. After gathering information, interpretation and validation help to complete the data. The purpose of assessment is to establish data with the initial information, to interpret data about the patient's perceived needs and health problems, and to respond to these problems identified.

The nursing process provides a clinical decision-making framework for patients and families to establish and implement a personalized care plan. Since part of the nurse's duties is to teach patients, the steps of the nursing process are the most effective way to approach instruction. The nursing process and the teaching-learning process are inextricably linked.

Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.
