Assignment Directions
Begin by selecting topic in nursing that is of interest to you.
The topic is Addiction
Next, use PICOT to format a possible research question about that topic. Provide 1 possible PICOT research question. Find 1 quantitative or qualitative peer-reviewed research article related to your nursing topic that was published within the last 5 years. Reminder: All peer-reviewed research articles have methods, discussion, and results sections. Upload the article with your paper in PDF or Word format. This source can be used again in the Week 4 article assignment if it meets the criteria.
See PICOT FORMATING GUIDE (provided below)
Include the following:
· Title page
· Provide a brief description of the topic and background information (see page 37 of your textbook). You can use your text, your peer-reviewed journal source, or the EBP care sheets in CINAHL or Nursing Reference Center Database ( I will attach to the this)
· Explain the significance of the topic to nursing practice. Background information can be found in journal articles in the introduction section. Results and conclusions will speak to significance of the topic. The EBP care sheets may have sources for you to choose from.
· Provide 1 clearly-stated PICOT question.
· Include 1 peer-reviewed journal source related to your topic.
· The chosen topic and PICOT will be used for your Week 9 poster assignment. It will also guide your article searches in Week 4 on which you will complete appraisals in Week 6.
Your paper should:
· Be 2–3 pages (not including the title page and reference page)
· Use current APA format to style your paper and to cite your source.
There will be a 5 point deduction if peer-reviewed research journal article is not used and a 5 point deduction if the article is not included with your submission.
Review the rubric for further information on how your assignment will be graded.
