¶ … search, and evaluation task.
The literature exhibited particular gaps with regard to the initial problem that I was considering. For example, I began thinking about the difficulties of emergency room nursing care and the jeopardy to morale and job satisfaction that was just part of on-the-job exposure to the emergency room setting. Patients were often very badly hurt, but they were just as often in need of routine medical care for common, albeit uncomfortable conditions. Treating patients in emergency room settings often meant dealing with people who were violent toward those who were trying to care for them. In addition, much of the literature -- for no apparent reason -- was based on data and studies from non-American hospitals and emergency rooms. Dwindling resources in some locations meant fewer staff members to do the same amount of work in general hospitals and in emergency rooms. Physicians were often the focus of these studies rather than nursing staff. Balancing the preponderance of some kinds of studies and the dearth of others, I began to see a pattern that indicated a line of research: Job satisfaction of emergency room nurses in American hospitals. My search narrowed to the following key words: American hospital emergency rooms, emergency rooms, emergency room care, emergency care, emergency nurse, job satisfaction, job stress, job burnout, job fatigue,...
Gradually, a mosaic of literature was compiled that illustrated the need for more research on job satisfaction and staff morale in nurses who practice in the emergency rooms of American hospitals.
B. Discuss the purpose of conducting a literature review of the chosen research topic.
The reasons for staff morale and job satisfaction for nurses working in the emergency rooms of American hospitals are not entirely clear. A considerable degree of generalization has occurred from nursing staff providing different types of care in a variety of settings to staff providing emergency room nursing care. Sweeping assumptions have been made about staff morale and job satisfaction of nursed which have tended to disregard the very different types of work that these nurses do, and the different types of practice demands they face in these several and distinct settings. This literature review was designed to gather research information about the different contributions made by settings that are both similar to and dramatically different from what is encountered in American hospital nursing room care.
C. Discuss at least two specific examples of how the literature review affected different components of a research proposal.

" (Halpin and Burt, 1998) DuBois states: "The history of the American Negro is the history of this strife -- this longing to attain self-conscious manhood, to merge his double self into a better and truer self. In this merging he wishes neither of the older selves to be lost. He would not Africanize America, for America has too much to teach the world and Africa. He would not bleach
The Teacher and Principal Relationship with the Principal as Leader Research indicate that the primary role of the principal is that of the school "leader." The decision a principal makes concerning the issue of instructional leadership and the extent to which that principal develops the skills needed to exercise appropriate instructional leadership will influence what does or does not happen in classrooms throughout the country. Marks and Printy (2003) agree that the importance of the instructional leadership
Heart of Darkness advances and withdraws as in a succession of long dark waves borne by an incoming tide. The waves encroach fairly evenly on the shore, and presently a few more feet of sand have been won. But an occasional wave thrusts up unexpectedly, much further than the others; even as far, say, as Kurtz and his Inner Station"- Albert J. Guerard." In Conrad's Heart of Darkness Marlow, the chief

This will function as an
Learning in adults is most effectual when the environment is both participative and interactive. Another important characteristic is that learners obtain instantaneous feedback. Teaching methods that necessitate a learner to think though data or information and come to a conclusion or forecast an outcome are more valuable than is reading or lecture. "The minute-to-minute care and monitoring of critically ill patients requires nurses to collect, analyze, and react to
