Congruity between the stated philosophical perspective and the research methodology Does the report clearly state the philosophical or theoretical premises on which the study is based? Does the report clearly state the methodological approach adopted on which the study is based? Is there congruence between the two? For example: A report may state that the study adopted a critical perspective and participatory action research methodology was followed. Here there is congruence between a critical view (focusing on knowledge arising out of critique, action and reflection) and action research (an approach that focuses on firstly working with groups to reflect on issues or practices, then considering how they could be different; then acting to create a change; and finally identifying new knowledge arising out of the action taken). However, a report may state that the study adopted an interpretive perspective and used survey methodology. Here there is incongruence between an interpretive view (focusing on knowledge arising out of studying what phenomena mean to individuals or groups) and surveys (an approach that focuses on asking standard questions to a defined study population); a report may state that the study was qualitative or used qualitative methodology (such statements do not demonstrate rigour in design) or make no statement on philosophical orientation or methodology. Congruity between the research methodology and the research or objectives Is the study methodology appropriate for addressing the research ? For example: A report may state that the research was to seek understandings of the meaning of pain in a group of people with rheumatoid arthritis and that a phenomenological approach was taken. Here, there is congruity between this and the methodology. A report may state that the research was to establish the effects of counselling on the severity of pain experience and that an ethnographic approach was pursued. A that tries to establish cause-and effect cannot be addressed by using an ethnographic approach (as ethnography sets out to develop understandings of cultural practices) and thus, this would be incongruent. Congruity between the research methodology and the methods used to collect data Are the data collection methods appropriate to the methodology? For example: A report may state that the study pursued a phenomenological approach and data was collected through phenomenological interviews. There is congruence between the methodology and data collection; a report may state that the study pursued a phenomenological approach and data was collected through a postal questionnaire. There is incongruence between the methodology and data collection here as phenomenology seeks to elicit rich descriptions of the experience of a phenomena that cannot be achieved through seeking written responses to standardized questions. Congruity between the research methodology and the representation and analysis of data Are the data analyzed and represented in ways that are congruent with the stated methodological position? For example: A report may state that the study pursued a phenomenological approach to explore people’s experience of grief by asking participants to describe their experiences of grief. If the text generated from asking these questions is searched to establish the meaning of grief to participants, and the meanings of all participants are included in the report findings, then this represents congruity; the same report may, however, focus only on those meanings that were common to all participants and discard single reported meanings. This would not be appropriate in phenomenological work. There is congruence between the research methodology and the interpretation of results Are the results interpreted in ways that are appropriate to the methodology? For example: A report may state that the study pursued a phenomenological approach to explore people’s experience of facial disfigurement and the results are used to inform practitioners about accommodating individual differences in care. There is congruence between the methodology and this approach to interpretation; a report may state that the study pursued a phenomenological approach to explore people’s experience of facial disfigurement and the results are used to generate practice checklists for assessment. There is incongruence between the methodology and this approach to interpretation as phenomenology seeks to understand the meaning of a phenomenon for the study participants and cannot be interpreted to suggest that this can be generalized to total populations to a degree where standardized assessments will have relevance across a population. Locating the researcher culturally or theoretically Are the beliefs and values, and their potential influence on the study declared? For example: The researcher plays a substantial role in the qualitative research process and it is important, in appraising evidence that is generated in this way, to know the researcher’s cultural and theoretical orientation. A high quality report will include a statement that clarifies this. Influence of the researcher on the research, and vice-versa, is addressed Is the potential for the researcher to influence the study and for the potential of the research process itself to influence the researcher and her/his interpretations acknowledged and addressed? For example: Is the relationship between the researcher and the study participants addressed? Does the researcher critically examine her/his own role and potential influence during data collection? Is it reported how the researcher responded to events that arose during the study? Representation of participants and their voices Generally, reports should provide illustrations from the data to show the basis of their conclusions and to ensure that participants are represented in the report. Ethical approval by an appropriate body A statement on the ethical approval process followed should be in the report. Relationship of conclusions to analysis, or interpretation of the data This criterion concerns the relationship between the findings reported and the views or words of study participants. In appraising a paper, appraisers seek to satisfy themselves that the conclusions drawn by the research are based on the data collected; data being the text generated through observation, interviews or other processes Introduction: The introduction must introduce the article, including proper referencing of the article, and a discussion about why you chose that article to evaluate, its purpose, give an outline and overview of articles Body: In the body of your essay you must: 1. Use the critical appraisal tool you have chosen to evaluate all the sections of the research study, including the title, abstract and declarations. 2.
