alongside a trained obstetrician, however, early recognition of a maternal hemorrhage can make the difference of life or death. The researchers sought to prove that training midwives through simulation verses those midwives with no specialized training will increase their knowledge and skill levels which would decrease maternal morbidity and mortality rates. The researchers cited 7 previous projects in the study and those topics included: comparing simulation training with ordinary lectures,…

reconstructing ‘the case history’ of a single participant or group of individuals (such as a school class or a specific social group), i.e. the idiographic approach” (McLeod, 2008). A case study will allow the researcher to investigate topics in a more detailed manner than possible if the researcher is attempting to manage a large number of participants for an averaging. Looking at the history of a case study, one is able to conclude that it emerged as a resolution to a problem and evolved with…

this hypothesis by showing her language skills throughout the film (Garmon, 1994). Many researchers tried to teach Genie language but could not get her to use correct grammar. While Susan Curtiss, a researcher, was working with Genie she stated,” ‘What red blue is in?’ Does that make sense? Is that a silly question?” Genie understood vocabulary and concepts, but could not put sentences together. Another researcher, Stacy Keach, stated that, “Genie didn 't seem to be able to put words together in…

article by Alta Charo titled, “Body of research- Ownership and Use of Human Tissue” she states that there are two key questions that researchers need to focus on that is: First, could a 1-time general consent to all future research be used? It is not clear if this type of consent would comport with Health Insurance Portability and Accountability. The HIPAA requires specific information for use of the patient's protected health information in research, unless the IRB has made a specific…

Researchers Maurice Kernan, David Cowan, and Charles Zuker used the scientific methods in their study of the transduction pathway of mechanoreception. Their research was mostly exploratory with a focus on building a theory for the molecular basis of mechanoreception. Extensive research has been done on the transduction pathways of the senses, such as scent and hearing, but very little has been found about the rapid pathway that is mechanoreception. This response is a vital part of an animal’s…

In this regards the researchers have long used surveys on the racial attitudes amongst the population in general. However, nowadays the researchers in many cases have developed in-depth interviews to understand the propensities that exist for discrimination against the employment of people based on race. One line of interview the researchers have asked a number of questions about the last employee hired on the job by the employers. The researchers have asked about number of characteristics…

of the dependent variable(s): There are two dependent variables in this research: the body mass index which was calculated according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention Guidelines (CDC) and the food consumption. They have trained researchers to measure the height (cm) and also the weight (kg) of each participants. Body mass index was adjusted for age and gender to create percentiles. They classified the people who had the body max index of 25-30 as being overweight and people who…

physiologic pacing (dual chamber or atrial) and single chamber pacing (ventricular). The researchers were trying to determine whether the physiologic pacing is superior to the single chamber pacing as previous thought. The way they would determine this is to take a sample of patients that will receive one of the above pace makers and compare the results of atrial fibrillation, stroke, or death due to the heart. The researchers gathered their sample by some specific criteria. A total of 7734…

guidelines to follow. Informed consent focuses on describing the best way to gain consent of a participant. It is not adequate enough to just get a participant to agree to an experiment. They first need to know what it is they are agreeing to and researchers must outline what the experiment…

thinking and acting within us. These subjective states refer to our “inner” world of experiences rather than the world out there….our central interest as researchers is now focused upon people’s understandings and interpretations of their social environments (May, 1993, p.8) Researchers re-intpret the…
