annotated bibliography

 

  1. Choose one of the shared theories presented in McEwen & Willis Chapters 13-18, or identify another from the current nursing literature for review in nursing research. (Note: if you select a theory not discussed in the text, please check with your grading faculty).
  2. Access CINAHL and identify two nursing research studies that used the theory in their work (maybe as a conceptual framework, but maybe testing the theory). Be aware that since these are non-nursing theories, much of the research that uses them is from other disciplines.  For this assignment, we are interested in how nursing researchers use them (i.e. select nursing journals).
  3. Create an annotated bibliography (if you are unfamiliar with this term, please look it up and an example is also provided here). Focus your notation on how the theory was used for the study – not the process, methods, or findings of the study!!!!
  4. Create a reference list and title page (APA)

Yes, identifying level 1 evidence can be challenging and insightful. It appears you were able to identify evidence at large; however, you were not bale to identify evidence specific to your demographic population.

If there is a lack of evidence that supports your specific topic/population, I invite you to consider searching the evidence for information about other chronic diseases and how that is addressed in rural areas. Sometimes when searching
