Instructions

For this assignment, you will be evaluating research. In this last module, critical appraisal and analytics have been discussed. Therefore, you will write a review and compare and contrast the research report to a similar one.

Use the FSCJ Library and Learning Commons database or outside resources from google and locate two published research papers with a similar research focus (i.e.: a specific disease, treatment, diagnostic technique, etc.).

Select one of the two papers to create a review. The format should follow the sections given in the learning unit. You must include the following for the initial review:

-Abstract

-Introduction

-Materials/Methods

-Results

-Discussion

Compare the two papers you have selected. What are the common themes? Do any of the results overlap?

Contrast the two papers you have selected. What differences do you see between the two papers? Do you think that one was written better than the other?

Note: For your comparison and contrast section, write about more than the questions you were given. The questions are to get you started. Be critical and creative.
