The interpretation of research in health care is essential to decision-making. By understanding research, health care providers can identify risk factors, trends, outcomes for treatment, health care costs, and best practices. To be effective in evaluating and interpreting research, the reader must first understand how to interpret the findings. You will practice article analysis in Topics 2 and 3.

For this assignment:

Search the GCU Library and find two different health care articles that use quantitative research. Do not use articles that appear in the topic Resources or textbook.

Complete an article analysis for each using the “Article Analysis 1” template.

Refer to “The Effect of Progressive Relaxation Exercises on Dyspnea and Anxiety Levels in Individuals With COPD: A Randomized Controlled Trial,” located in the Topic 2 Resources in conjunction with the “Article Analysis: Example 1,” for an example of an article analysis.

Correlation is the process of establishing a relationship between two or more factors. Correlation is an important concept that can be misused. One misuse is saying that factor A is caused by factor B just because correlation is found. Cause cannot be implied simply from correlation. Find two examples in scholarly articles within the last 10 years that use correlation analysis. One of the articles must use correlation to imply causation correctly and one article should not have justification to imply cause.

1. Summarize both articles in at least 500 words.
2. Explain why cause was appropriate in one article and not in the other.
3. What would be needed for the second article to justify a statement of cause?
