The Survey Says: Conducting a Desrptive Research Study Barriers to Accepting Health Information Technologies

Step One

Introduction: With the rapid transformation of the U.S. health care industry, todays HIM (including health care managers) professional requires an advanced level of skill sets and training. This includes the basic ability to conduct health care research and analysis raw data in order to derive meaningful information. Conduct a desrptive research study on the assigned topic Barriers to Accepting Health Information Technologies.

Deliverables: Submit a single document. Your submission must include an APA-formatted cover sheet.

Step One (Part A): Identifying the Variables-

Given the assigned research topic Barriers to Accepting Health Information Technologies, identify your independent and dependent study variable(s) [Refer to the accompanying reference document attached below titled Pointers for Completing Steps One (Part A & B)]
Step One (Part B): Formulate The Hypothesis-
State your hypothesis [Refer to the accompanying reference document attached below titled Pointers for Completing Step One (Part A & B)]

Step Two:

At this point you should have devised both the variables (independent and dependent) and hypothesis as it relates to the assigned topic Barriers to Accepting Health Information Technologies. At this point, lets move forward and build upon steps one in order to complete the first deliverable due, step two.

Deliverables: Submit one (1) single document Your submission must include an APA-formatted cover sheet.

Step Two: Designing a Research Survey & Soliciting Participants-

Part A. Creating a Cover Letter
Create a one (1) page cover letter that discusses the following:
An overview of the topic/study [Hint Hint Refer to the assigned topic Barriers to Accepting Health Information Technologies]
State the purpose/need of the study
State the variables of the study [originally created in step one]
State the hypothesis [originally created in step two]
State your sample size and explain the reasoning behind the selected size
Discuss the expected benefits of the study
Discuss how you plan to pilot test the survey before soliciting participants
Include an official statement requesting participation in the study
Identify and explain any associated risk(s) by participating in the study. In addition, discuss your plan(s)/measure(s) to ensure the confidentiality, privacy and security of the collected data gathered from completed surveys
State a specific deadline to complete the survey, shall not exceed sixty (60) days [state in the format of Month, Date & Year]
Share your data retention schedule and the process of discarding the collected data [provide specifics on how the data will be discarded and the time frame of completion]
Closing Remarks (along with your contact information) [Include the name and contact number of the designed person of contact, any closing notes etc.]Part B. Survey Design
Having identified the variables and hypothesis in the previous steps, design a five (5) question survey as it relates to the assigned research topic Barriers to Accepting Health Information Technologies. The survey must consist of a mix of opened-ended and closed-ended questions. Be sure to include the answer choices as well for each question.

Step Three

Using the provided UMUC, Human Research Project Notification Form, complete numbered items 1-5 only on the provided form, by providing pertinent information in regards to your Desrptive Research Study on the assigned topic Barriers to Accepting Health Information Technology. UMUC, Human Research Project Notification & Human Subjects Protection Form is an alternative to the Institutional Review Board (IRB) Application for the purpose of this assignment. Upon your submission, the proposed UMUC IRB Board will review your form and follow up with a decision to support your proposed study [Hint Hint: for the purpose of this assignment, your instructor will serve as your IRB Board]. A final draft of the project containing steps 1-3 that includes the UMUC, Human Research Project Notification & Human Subjects Protection Form is due at the conclusion of Week Ten no later than Sunday, by 11:59 PM EST.

Watch & read provided material, write 3-4 page paper critical analysis, fact check and response. This site is 1 of the sources of material Instructions and article are in the document attached. http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/film/chasing-heroin/

Analytical Response

Read Red Jackets [The Great Spirit Has Made Us All] and Tecumsehs [The White Men Are not Friends to the Indians].
Skip the summary section for this particular analysis. Instead, provide an introduction that has an attention-getter, some brief background information including the titles and authors of the works youre using, and a thesis that alludes to the purpose (compare/contrast) and content of the AR.
Compare/contrast the speeches of Red Jacket and Tecumseh. Obviously, they are both speeches by Native Americans; because this information is commonplace, it need not be addressed. Instead, consider their style, use of literary techniques, tone, etc. How do they compare/contrast, and what difference does this make?
Write this response in the THIRD person also.
Use quotations sparingly–only where necessary to support a particular point (in other words, do not simply run a list of quotations from each text together. Concentrate on making your contrast/comparison and use the citations to support particularly difficult points). Refer to the Quoting, Paraphrasing, and Summarizing information under Instructor Notes for information on working a quote into a sentence or paragraph. Be sure to use parenthetical references properly (consult one of the recommended online sites or refer to a grammar book or MLA Handbook, usually found in reference material in all libraries). Include a Works Cited Page that lists all sources–in this case, the two writings you are discussing. Each will be listed separately accordingly to the format for one selection from a collection or anthology (this note applies any time you cite a work from your textbook). There is no excuse for incorrect MLA format, as examples are given here on Bb, websites are recommended for your perusal, and samples are readily found in grammar textbooks or MLA Handbooks. Mistakes are expected; lack of effort toward being as correct as possible is not.
