This course is designed to support and facilitate students in a culturally competent evidence-based practice leadership experience through which they demonstrate the scholarship of practice at the doctor of nursing practice (DNP) level. In this second part of the DNP project experience students will continue their work on creating or changing the context for excellence in clinical care delivery through a culturally competent evidence-based practice project. Students will maintain a leadership role as they continue to apply knowledge and skills to solve a clinical problem using a culturally competent evidence-based practice framework. Intra and interprofessional collaboration, consultation, and partnership development in the culturally competent evidence-based practice change will be fostered, with a focus on theoretical versus real world scenarios in crossing the quality chasm. Students will continue to have one-to-one mentoring with a faculty mentor and a clinical partner mentor as they implement the evidence-based practice change and evaluate the project. Course faculty will discuss with students progress in their learning experiences in scheduled seminars during the semester.

This foundational course introduces basic concepts of research design and statistics essential to quantitative investigation, with a special emphasis on research targeting primary health care, cultural competence, and evidence-based practice within the nursing discipline. Students will critically appraise published research articles, evaluating various design strategies (e.g., descriptive, quasi-experimental, and experimental) in relation to research aims, hypotheses or research questions, procedure and data collection, measurement, inference, and cultural congruence with population and topic studied. Statistical focus targets univariate and bivariate descriptive methods, including I-test, simple regression, chi-squared text, Analysis of variance (ANOVA), and analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) with hands-on application via statistical computing software packages. Power analysis and sample size calculations are also incorporated

This foundational course introduces qualitative research methods, conceptualization, design, and data collection procedures with a special emphasis on research targeting primary health care, cultural competence, and evidence-based practice within the nursing discipline. Featured methods include phenomenology, ethnography, grounded theory, hermeneutics, historical inquiry, and action research with a highlighted focus on how each method provides a unique, evidence-based perspective regarding a phenomenon of interest within primary health care and cultural competence. Students will discuss the nature and application of qualitative research in nursing as evidence for primary care; compare qualitative data collection methods such as observation, interviews, focus group interviews, and collection of documents; contrast data analyses techniques; conceptualize qualitative research and formulate problem statements and research questions specifically focusing on cultural competence and primary care; and subsequently design and implement a qualitative research pilot study.

The focus of this course is the development of essential competencies required to locate, select, evaluate, and utilize instruments to operationalize nursing concepts, focusing on cultural competence, evidence-based practice and primary health care. Measurement theory will be presented in relation to norm-referenced measures. Ethical considerations in nursing research and research issues in diverse populations will be considered. Specific attention is given to the process of moving from concept to construct. Through the use of the course data set, SPSS use is introduced and measurement theory, validity/reliability issues, and measurement issues in diverse populations are explored. In addition, issues including literacy, stamina during illness/crisis, social desirability bias, sensitive data, translations, and cultural norms will be addressed. Locating and evaluating measures appropriate for investigating nursing phenomena will be presented.

This course expands upon the concepts and applications of Quantitative Research I, including an introduction to longitudinal and randomized control design issues and detailed methodological and design comparisons (e.g., experimental, cross-sectional, and longitudinal). Parametric and non- parametric univariate comparative statistical methods used to analyze data resulting from cross sectional and randomized controlled designs will be included. Special emphasis targets research concerning primary health care, cultural competence, and evidence-based best practices within the nursing discipline. Students will critically appraise design issues; propose discipline-relevant research questions or hypotheses; design a quantitative pilot study; select the correct statistical technique to answer research questions involving group difference; clean and screen grouped data; use SPSS to answer grouped data research questions; interpret SPSS output; and evaluate results based upon statistical, theoretical and clinical rationale.

This course critically analyzes select nursing, non-nursing, and interdisciplinary theories, models, and approaches for application in nursing research. Select theories and approaches will be appraised for their conceptual, empirical, and other contributions towards guiding interprofessional research for cultural competent, evidence-based best practices in primary health care for diverse populations. Through readings and other teaching-learning activities, students will explore the nature of health, human behavior, and social and behavioral change; analyze the processes and components of scientific theory development; derive propositions from health-related theories to guide primary health care research in nursing; evaluate the efficacy of multiple theories, models, and empirical approaches to explain nursing phenomena; and recommend strategies for optimizing the nurse scientist role within interprofessional arenas.

This didactic course prepares students to extrapolate the research process within the practicum for application to primary health care and chosen area of research. Students will share ideas, analyze research of clinical experts, researchers, administrators, and/or educators; examine hypotheses and develop research expertise with clinical experts, researchers and/or educators in a selected area; and evaluate components of the mentoring process within the nurse scientist role. Special focus will be on research targeting evidence-based best practices for culturally competent primary health care and improving population health. Field experience objectives will be developed with the student's advisory committee in cooperation with a nurse researcher employed in a clinical agency, school of nursing, or other research setting. A minimum of one semester field experience is required of all students.

This course focuses on the completion of a dissertation proposal for students who have not yet defended their proposal. Students continue to present their research ideas, research design, and written work for peer and faculty critique. Throughout this ongoing process, students develop their skills of critical appraisal, writing, and research proposal design aimed at creating a feasible, well-written dissertation proposal that can be defended, implemented, and completed within a realistic time frame. Potential impact on generating evidence-based best practices for improving population health through culturally competent primary health care will be appraised. Students must enroll in this course each semester until the proposal is successfully defended.
