2. Identify your audience. Clarify whom the PSA’s main message is intended. Your research from part one of the project will help you understand what this audience cares about can help target your message and final product. 

3. Determine the “hook.” A hook is a message that grabs someone’s attention. A powerful hook will substantially increase the number of people who do what you ask them to do. 

While doing research I came across a few articles that spoke about child sexual abuse. One spoke about the life long implications and risks that have been linked and associated with victims of sexual abuse. Some examples are substance abuse, suicide, slowed brain development, and chronic pain. (Bustamante et al., 2019). In another article I found it interesting that victims of sexual abuse can present with Alexithymia, is a cognitive disorder defined as the inability to express or identify with ones emotions. It is used a defense mechanism to avoid negative feelings. Alexithymia is shown to have a relationship with childhood traumas. (Boisjoli and Hebert, 2020).

Dissemination  of EBP and research, such as presenting results at a conference or  writing an article for a journal, is an important part of professional  practice. Identify one professional journal and one nursing or health  care conference where you might present your project. Discuss why each  of your choices is the best option for you to disseminate your new  knowledge.

 Discuss why EBP is an essential component of the practice of a  BSN-prepared RN. Identify two ways in which you will continue to  integrate evidence into your practice and encourage it within your work  environment. What obstacles could challenge this plan, and what steps  will you take to minimize their impact?
