Answer

Presenting Research Findings & Publishing Research Results

The term dissemination can be referred to as a planned process that involves consideration of target audiences and the settings in which research findings are to be received and, where appropriate, communicating and interacting with broader policy and…”service audiences in ways that will facilitate research uptake in decision-making processes and practice” (Wilson, Petticrew, Calnan, & Natareth, 2015). In other words, dissemination of research findings involves careful planning, thought, consideration of target audiences, and communication with those audiences. Writing up results from your research and having others take notice are two entirely different propositions. In fact, the general rule of thumb is that people will not take notice unless you help and encourage them to do so (Wilson, Petticrew, Calnan, & Natareth, 2015).

Some essential questions can be asked, such as who might be interested in, benefit from, or be impacted by my research, or why would my research be of interest to this specific group of people. Similarly, relevant aspects of the research that align with its goals influence their interaction with other investigations. Besides answering these questions, the formatting that one chooses plays an important role or factor here; there is a big difference between writing that is engaging and welcoming, with plain language easy to understand, versus a boring article full of medical jargon that seems complicated and not so accessible to that part of the population where it is needed most (Brownson, Eyler, Harris, 2018).

On the other hand, the main reason there are publications made on nursing research is that the same enhances the practice, helps to share with others, and creates awareness about the benefits or innovations that the findings in that research brought to light. All this knowledge and new information help reshape the constantly evolving nursing practice. This has a great positive impact because the patient care and the health outcomes, education on the topic, etc., will help the patient’s health status. It sets forward new and more studies to continue further evaluating this topic so that the gaps can be closed. At the same time, since this can have such a significant impact, it is important to stress that the results should be reviewed and appropriately validated before publication. The reliability of the research and the follow-up on ethical principles in the research can have a meaningful impact and relevant implications on the results obtained (Tappen, 2016).

Great post!! It made me think of March 2022 – COVID 19- AND ALL THE challenges brought on by COVID!!

Remember when the President back then said something about BLEACH!! SCARY!!

Here are some challenges that were identified:

1-recognizing differences in the meanings of shared symbols

2-sharing implications of information

3-interpreting the emotions used in sharing information

4-re-establishing trust after incorrect, critical information is shared

Would you agree?
