This seventh edition of Nursing
Research: Principles and Methods presents many important
changes to this textbook. This edition retains the features that have
made this an award-winning
textbook, while introducing revisions that will make it more relevant in
an environment that is increasingly focused on evidence-based nursing practice.
New to This Edition
• Emphasis on producing and
evaluating research evidence.
This edition focuses more squarely on the fact that research is an
evidence building
Enterprise. We stress throughout that the decisions researchers make in
designing and
Implementing a study have implications for the quality of evidence the
study yields—and that
The quality of evidence affects the utility of study findings for
nursing practice. We have
also expanded the final chapter on using research in an evidence-based
nursing practice.
• Expanded coverage of
qualitative research methods.
As in the sixth edition, this textbook discusses the methods associated with naturalistic
inquiries (qualitative studies) in a manner roughly parallel to the
description of methods
more typically used in traditional scientific research (quantitative
studies). This edition,
which is coauthored by a prominent qualitative nurse researcher, goes
even further than previous
ones
in offering assistance.
Better “how to” assistance.
There are even more “how to” tips in this edition than in previous ones,
with many new ones aimed at qualitative researchers. Moreover, these
tips are interspersed
throughout the text rather than clustered at the end, which not only
places them in more relevant locations, but also makes for a livelier
presentation.
• Improved readability.
This textbook has been widely hailed for its clear, concise, and
“userfriendly”
presentation. In this edition, however, we have gone to great lengths to
write in an
even simpler, more straightforward fashion, in recognition of the fact
that research methods are
an inherently complex topic. Additionally, the readability of the text
is enhanced by several
visual features, such as the use of a new, fullcolor design.
• Greater acknowledgment of
international efforts.
This edition gives better recognition to the contributions of nurse researchers from around the globe
