Summary: "This book is primarily aimed at academic level 5 healthcare students who need to complete critical appraisal assignments of primary research. However, the content is also suitable for academic level 4 or 6 assignments on the concept of evidence-based practice (EBP), using research evidence for healthcare, and extended literature reviews. The book is designed to support students with applying their learning about research and evidence-based practice to written assignment and developing their academic writing skills. These skills can be used for non-research assignments too, since they support students to locate, understand and use research evidence on any healthcare topic"-- Provided by publisher.
