Prospective or Retrospective - ANSWER Looking forward or backwards.
Studies a cohort of individuals that share a common exposure factor to determine
its influence on the development of disease, and are compared with another group
of equivalent individuals that were not exposed to the factor
Literature Review - ANSWER Analyzing articles written by experts
Systematic Review - ANSWER Gather all available empirical research to
obtain answers to a specific question
Meta-Analysis - ANSWER A method of systematically combining qualitative
and quantitative data from multiple studies to derive a single, more robust
conclusion with enhanced statistical power. It involves the use of statistical
techniques to analyze aggregated data, often leading to informed decision making
and chages in treatment
Standard Deviation - ANSWER Measures variability that describes the
deviation from the average of a frequency distribution
,Cluster Analysis - ANSWER The task of grouping a set of objects in a way that
objects in the same group are more similar to each other than those in other groups
One sample T-test - ANSWER Compares the average of the score. Sample size
is small. Looks for differences
U-Test (Mann-Whitney) (Wilcoxon-ran-sum test) - ANSWER Used when we
think we are comparing apples to apples, but we are not sure
Two Sample T-Test - ANSWER Researchers have a group of subjects, and have
two different interventions to apply. They randomize the subjects into two groups,
and compare for results
Paired T-Test - ANSWER Compares a variable measured at two time points on
the same subject or comparing values between matched pairs
Anova - ANSWER Used as a test to compare means between independent
variables with similar variance and normality of distribution. Can compare
multiple groups
Z-Test - ANSWER A statistical test utilized to assess whether there is a
significant difference between two population means when the variances are
known, and the sample size is large.
F Test - ANSWER Most often used when comparing statistical models that
have been fitted to a data set, to identify the model that best fits the population
from which the data were sampled.
, Chi Square Test - ANSWER Tests for relationships between categorical
variables. Used when you are comparing values you can observe with those you
expect
Examples of Chi Square Test - ANSWER As a person ages, their blood
pressure increases.
As a child grows, their height increases
Correlation Coefficient - ANSWER Measures strength and relationship
between two variables on a scatterplot
Examples of Correlation Coefficient - ANSWER As people age, their
likelihood of having arthritic changes increases (positive)
As people increase their exercise activity, their weight decreases (negative)
Descriptive Statistics - ANSWER Describes and analyzes a given group
without drawing any conclusions. Data is measured, organized, graphed.
Inferential Statistics - ANSWER Draws conclusions about a larger population.
Conclusion is based on data from a sample. Make an educated guess
Research Process - ANSWER Includes research design, study population, data
collection, and analysis plan
, Research Design - ANSWER Descriptive, correlational, experimental. The type
of study that is being done
Subjective Methods - ANSWER Observation, watching, taking notes, open-
ended questions, in person or phone interviews, focus groups
Experimental Methods - ANSWER Hypothesis/Null hypothesis parametric tests
such as t-tests, ANOVA, linear regression etc
Fidelity - ANSWER Loyalty, truthfulness
Fidelity - ANSWER Keeping a promise to a patient about a specific treatment
plan and advocating for the patient's rights and well-being during the healthcare
process
Autonomy - ANSWER The ability to make your own decision without being
controlled by anyone else
Justice - ANSWER Fair Selection
Justice - ANSWER Ensuring that research participants in a clinical trial are
selected without discrimination and that the risks and benefits of participation are
distributed fairly among diverse populatinos
Nonmaleficence - ANSWER Not harming
