Emergency Prepare...Longitudinal
Emergency preparedness is an important topic in civic planning both in the medical care industry and in community planning. Significant negative effects can occur when a department, institution, city or region fails to respond to an emergency in a manner that has the highest rate of success with regard to loss of life as well as loss of infrastructure and/or important public services. Due in large part to the fact that emergency preparedness is associated with immediate and what by many is seen as a singular event in a time and place much of the research regarding emergency preparedness has to do with immediate response and research is reflective of that. Cross-sectional research is often the result of such research and the research questions that ensue when one is dealing with emergency preparedness issues. This brief work will explore a question regarding emergency preparedness that would be better researched using a longitudinal methods approach.
A secondary but equally important way to approach research on the subject of emergency preparedness is to ask...
The types of research questions associated with such longitudinal focuses could encompass immediate and long-term outcomes for those involved in an emergency and/or for the community affected. These types of research questions could include both long-term psychological or practical outcomes for those involved, as well as long-term infrastructural recovery, both of which have implications about the effectiveness of emergency response preparedness.
A great deal of outcomes research has been conducted in the last 10-15 years with regard to the lasting effects of massive emergency situations. This has been in large part associated with several large emergency/disasters that have occurred in the U.S. over the last 15 years. Disasters like Hurricane Katrina and terrorist attacks like those which occurred September 11th and at the Oklahoma City bombing (Felton, 2004) (Reissman, 2004). The lessons learned by such research educate future first responders as well as those who respond to the social, emotional and physical after…

Actually Survey Monkey does all of that for me also handing me the graphs and other calculations involved in results. A survey has many details going into it to ensure its reliability and validity. Part of my reason for using Survey Monkey is that it guarantees its conducting survey according to outmost scientific credibility. Data analysis A regression analysis using SPSSS will be conducted in order to see whether there is any
Data Analysis The researcher will gather all of the information collected from the self report questionnaires and analyze using a variety of techniques including summary, interpretation, classifying and describing. The author will use the data to measure change that occurs among the populations using HRT therapy. In conducting the study the researcher will undoubtedly run into some obstacles including determining how to measure change in the participants health and well being, examining
DNP Method and Design Three studies relating to the PICOT of this proposed study are the qualitative research study Ong, Chua and Ng (2014) on barriers and facilitators of self-monitoring sugar levels for diabetes patients, the quantitative study by Stevens, Shi, Vane, Nie and Peters (2015) on the experiences of diabetes patients receiving home care, and the mixed-methods research study of Wildeboer, du Pon, Schuling, Haaijer-Ruskamp and Denig (2018) on sharing
Abstract This literature review examines several scholarly articles that focus on the role of religion in the formation of student character. Some of the articles study the effect of religion and/or Christian beliefs on academic achievement, while some study the role the Christianity can play in people’s lives as the struggle to overcome obstacles or cope with issues that are adversely affecting them. Since education is an issue that is important
This report will hopefully pull together the research available with regard to this issue, and also identify what users are most at risk for virus attacks. The research currently available also confirms that modern viruses are becoming more insidious and complex, with the potential to incur more damage to computers and data than in the past. Studies suggest that newer versions of viruses may escape detection using standard anti-viral software.
These research methods adopt different instruments depending on the suitability of the event. In the following situations, decide whether you would use a personal interview, telephone survey, or self-administered questionnaire. Give your reasons. In the first scenario, it would be appropriate to use self-administered questions to reveal the underlying issues concerning the research questions. This is because the target population is large. The experiment seeks to uncover extra information to supplement
