A Practitioner-Friendly Guide to Understanding the Research Process
Session Description/Research Abstract
“Evidence-based practice”, “Mixed-methods”, “Systematic review”, “Randomized control trials”, “Qualitative study”... Have you wanted to take a deeper dive into understanding these terms and others associated with the research process? Maybe you have pondered potential research projects where you work as an RT, but need direction on where to start? Well, this presentation is for you! The purpose of this presentation is threefold: to provide knowledge of the basic research process, to educate practitioners on research methods trends, and to give skills on how to formulate a research study to answer your everyday questions in practice. Topics like ethical review boards and the journal publication process will also be briefly discussed.
