Module 6: Quantitative Critique Assignment Critique the research study by the following:
Klainberg, M. B., Roller, M. C., Ambrosio-Mawhirter, D. A., Johnston, J., Clarilee J Hauser, C. J., Parker, D. R., & Neville, S. M. (2021). Impact of sleep on nursing students in the era of a pandemic. The Journal of the New York State Nurses Association, 18(1), 57–63. Find the assigned article under the appropriate module assignment section. Follow current APA formatting standards, including a title page and reference page. Use the headings Part I, Part II, and Part III, below bolded subheadings, and the specific questions to answer the below questions in detail. Traditional essay paragraphs are not required. Support each question response with a minimum of two references for each question (the assigned article, plus your E-book and/ or other scholarly, peer-reviewed references). Make sure to cite all references with appropriate in-text APA citations and corresponding reference page citations. The assigned article critique questions will be graded via the Grading Rubric for Required Papers/ Assignments. Resources should be within the last five years, from 2019 until 2024. Make sure you cite the references with pages. Also, include this source in this assignment – Polit, D. F., & Beck, C. T. (2022). Essentials of nursing research: Appraising evidence for nursing practice (10th ed.). Wolters Kluwer. – Chapters 13 and 14 (PowerPoint included). Also, think of the best title for this assignment.
Below are several tips that I hope will provide further guidance when critiquing the article assigned for the Module 6 Quantitative Critique. • This assignment is titled “Quantitative Research Article Critique.” Two key words – quantitative and critique. You are critiquing this article based upon your thoughts and examinations of the article, the assigned readings and other sources. Based upon the readings, interpret this article via the assigned questions. Defend your answers/ arguments with substantive information from your insight and other scholarly sources. For some questions, there may not be a straightforward answer. In these cases, adequately support your answer to the assigned question with relevant references.
• Some questions may be answered by a yes/ no response. In those cases, respond and then support with why / why not. Sources to include
Klainberg, M. B., Roller, M. C., Ambrosio-Mawhirter, D. A., Johnston, J., Clarilee J Hauser, C. J., Parker, D. R., & Neville, S. M. (2021). Impact of sleep on nursing students in the era of a pandemic. The Journal of the New York State Nurses Association, 18(1), 57–63. Polit, D. F., & Beck, C. T. (2022).

Part I Method Box 8.1, p. 135:
1. What was the level of evidence for the study, and was the level the highest possible for the study purpose? 2. Were appropriate comparisons made to enhance interpretability of the findings?
3. Was the number of data collection points appropriate? Was the period of follow-up (if any) adequate?
Population and Sample Box 9.1, p. 146:
4. Did the design minimize biases and threats to the validity of the study (e.g., was blinding used, was attrition low)?
5. Was the population of interest clearly identified? Was the sample adequately described?
6. Was the best possible sampling design used to enhance the sample’s representativeness? Were sampling biases minimized?
7. Was the sample size adequate? Was a power analysis used to estimate sample size needs?
Part II
Data Collection and Measurement Box 9.2, p. 156:
1. Were key variables operationalized using the best possible method (e.g., interviews, observations, biomarkers)?
2. Were clinically important and patient-centered outcomes measured? Were the specific instruments adequately described?
3. Did the report provide evidence that the data collection methods yielded data that were reliable and valid?
Procedures Box 8.1, p. 135; Box 9.2, p. 156:
4. If there was an intervention, was it adequately described, and was it properly implemented? Did most participants allocated to the intervention group actually receive it?
5. Were data collected in a manner that minimized bias?
Data Analysis Box 13.1, p. 233:
6. Were appropriate statistical methods used?
7. Was the most powerful analytic method used (e.g., did the analysis control for confounding variables)?
8. Were Type I and Type II errors avoided or minimized?
Findings and Interpretation Box 14.1, p. 252:
9. Was information about statistical significance presented?
10. Was information about effect size and precision of estimates (confidence intervals) presented?
11. Was the clinical significance of the findings discussed? If so, explain what those were.
Part III: Choose three of the following questions to answer. 1. How well is the research design described in the report? Was the design decision explained and justified? 2. Does it appear that the researchers made all the design decisions up front, or did the design emerge during data collection, allowing them to capitalize on early information?
3. Did the design and analysis enhance the applicability of the study results?
4. Do you think the sample size in this study was adequate? Why or why not?
5. Despite any limitations, do the study findings appear to be valid? Do you have confidence in the truth value of the results?
6. Does the study contribute any meaningful evidence that can be used in nursing practice or that is useful to the nursing discipline?
