For use as a primary text in undergraduate nursing research courses.Clear, engaging writing sparks an interest in nursing research and evidence-based nursing
Foundations of Nursing Research illuminates all steps of the nursing research process, helping readers understand the importance of research to evidence-based nursing practice, evaluate and critique research, and determine whether study findings are ready to apply in practice. Its conversational tone explains research simply and clearly. To illustrate specific aspects of the research process, extensive research study excerpts are interspersed throughout the book, including research performed outside the U.S. User-friendly learning features include chapter objectives, key terms, summaries, review questions, research links, and self-tests.
Also available packaged with MyLabTM Nursing or via Pearson eText.
