The articles must be current (within the last five years), and one article must be quantitative, and one article must be qualitative. Article choice is very important, therefore:
Articles used for this assignment cannot be used for the other assignments. The selected articles should be original research studies. Review articles, concept analysis, meta-analysis, meta-synthesis, integrative review, and systemic review articles should not be used.
Mixed-methods studies should not be used.
There are two parts to this assignment. Part 1: Complete a Rapid Critical Appraisal Checklist
Select one each: qualitative and quantitative research articles.
