For this project, you will apply course resources and readings to preventing health and safety problems. Specifically, you will:
- Select a health-related research topic for which a proposal will be written. You can choose a problem that you have a personal interest in or has implications for your professional practice.
- Construct three research questions for your selected topic.
- Identify search terms based on variables that you will need to answer your proposed research questions
- Utilizing Library databases, locate research studies that have been conducted on your topic
- For this review, identify no less than six (6) publications in peer-reviewed journals related to your topic (30 points). Your paper must reflect analysis and synthesis.
- Review and discuss the Methods of those studies
- Identify the type of study, study design
- Participants, sample size and sampling method
- Identify variables and level of measurement
- Discuss data analysis and presentation of data
- Identify statistics and tests (Test of Hypothesis) performed and statistical software used for analysis.
- With consideration of the literature review and course learning, write a carefully considered hypothesis that addresses at least one risk factor that has not been tested in the studies you have read:
- Design a study that you could conduct that would support your hypothesis. In your study design include
- Who would be your subjects, how would you select them, how would you avoid bias?
- How will you collect data?
- What type of study would you conduct?
- Based on your proposed study, discuss how you would analyze your hypothetical data once collected by identifying statistical measures that you would use to validate your hypothesis.
- With the assumption that your hypothetical results prove to be statistically significant, discuss what changes you would recommend, include a plan to communicate your findings and application to health care organizations
- Design a study that you could conduct that would support your hypothesis. In your study design include
- Organize references in the latest version of APA style and formatting (5 points) References no older than 5 years.
- Please insert as a link to your chosen peer-reviewed articles (5 points)
The Epidemiology Analysis should be no more than 10 pages including cover and reference pages.
The research topic is the title
for the 3 research questions they are as follow
- What is the relationship between different intensities of exercise and cardiovascular disease prevention?
- Which exercise is best in terms of cardiovascular health?
- What are the major barriers individuals face in accomplishing daily exercise?
