Describe sampling theory and provide examples to illustrate your definition 2025

1 posts Re: Topic 3 DQ 2 Sampling theory is the study of the relationship between a population and a group randomly picked as the representatives of the whole population (GCU 2018). This theory can be considered biased since the researcher is picking and choosing which group to research and what population they want to represent (GCU 2018). An example of sampling theory would be taking a population of smokers and starting them on nicotine gum and see if it helps the smokers quit smoking. The sample would be the population of smokers, changing their habits by starting the nicotine gum, and testing the results (Paul 2017). Generalizability is the extension of research findings or conclusion made from the sample during a research on a large population. Using my previous example, the researcher is generalizing the smoking population that nicotine gum would help with smoking cessation when it most likely will not help everyone. Generalizability is big in the nursing research world because we study populations as a whole and try to come up with “generalized” solutions. These solutions may not help everyone specifically but will meet the need as a community (GCU 2018). Using 200-300 words APA format with at least two references to support this discussion. Describe sampling theory and provide examples to illustrate your definition. Discuss generalizability as it applies to nursing research.

Analysis and Evaluation of Frameworks and Theories 2025

Analysis and Evaluation of Frameworks and Theories Theory analysis is particularly helpful in research because it provides a clear idea of the form and structure of the theory in addition to the relevance of content, and inconsistencies and gaps present. The ‘missing links’ or inconsistencies are fruitful sources of new research ideas. They also point to the next hypotheses that need to be tested. —Walker and Avant, 2011, p. 206 Nurse scientists often find that examining the literature is a productive way to see how existing frameworks and theories have been applied in other research studies. By engaging in this process, they may gain insights about a particular framework or theory, be able to identify gaps in research, or uncover new questions they are eager to explore. In this Discussion, you analyze existing frameworks/theories using the procedure proposed by Walker and Avant. Your analysis should provide an objective understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of each framework or theory. This, in turn, should enable you to evaluate whether the framework/theory is useful for the purposes of your theoretical foundation for a program of research. To prepare Review the information that Dr. Hathaway presents in the Week 1 media program, “Theoretical Foundation for Research,” regarding the phases of theory development and the similarities and differences between frameworks and theories. Search the literature and identify two frameworks/theories that may be useful for investigating your phenomenon of interest. Review the procedure for theory analysis presented in Chapter 12 of Walker and Avant (2011). Apply these steps to each framework/theory you have selected and identify the strengths and weaknesses of each framework/theory. Determine whether additional development or refinement is needed (i.e., for each framework, identify which aspects would require further research in order for it to meet the requirements of a theory). Evaluate the value of each framework/theory for addressing your phenomenon. Determine which framework/theory has the most potential for use as part of your theoretical foundation of your research. Think about any questions you have related to theory analysis and evaluation. By Day 3 Post a description of the two frameworks/theories you analyzed and evaluated, and explain why each is considered either a framework or a theory. For framework(s) you have selected, explain which aspects would require further research to meet the requirements of a theory. Explain why one has the most potential for use in your theoretical foundation for research, noting its strengths and weaknesses. Also pose any questions that have arisen through your examination of frameworks/theories. Read a selection of your colleagues’ postings.

2025 Lat Week 3 discussion An anxious patient is having rapid and shallow breathing

by

nursing assessment 2025

Lat…. Week 3 discussion An anxious patient is having rapid and shallow breathing. After a few moments, he complains of a tingling sensation. What could be the causes of this tingling sensation? What are the various patterns of respiration and their significance? Ethnicity and culture influence risk factors for heart disease. Do you agree? Why or why not? What is the technique of percussion and palpation of the chest wall for tenderness, symmetry, bulges, fremitus, and thoracic expansion? Explain. Would you anticipate hearing hyper-resonance on a patient with a history of tobacco use? Why or why not? What are the mechanics of breathing with reference to lung borders and the anatomical structure of the lungs and diaphragm? The patient is having rapid and shallow breathing because of a decrease in Co2 in the blood to the extremities. The patient is experiencing hyperventilation. This could be a result of a panic attack or cardiac related. Norml respirations between 12-20 breaths/min. The chest expands and falls with a normal and even rate and rhythm Tachypnea: Respiratory rate that is above 20 breath/min. Some things that can cause this change is fever, pain, anxiety, respiratory issues. Bradypnea: Respiratory rate below 12 breaths per/min. Some causes of this could be certain medications such as narcotics or sedatives. Cheyene Stokes: Deep shallow breathing with periods of apnea. This could be in relation to renal faluire or drug overdose. African Americans are at a higher risk for devoloping heart disease due to genetics. Yes, I do agree because African Americans consume alot of sodium in their diet, and are geneticly sensitive to salt consumption which causes an increase in blood volume and raises blood pressure. Palpitation: Stand behind the patient and place your thumbs at the 10 th rib. Your hands will be out with thumbs touching. You can ask your patient to take a deep breath and you would watch for symmetry movement on your thumbs. During this point in the examination you will ask the patient to say ninety-nine as you bring your hands down along the sides of chest. You should have the same type of vibration throughout as you make your way down. To feel for bulges you would assess both posteriorly and anteriorly. You would use the tips of your fingers and gently palpate the area below the breast tissue. Percussion: You can perform the anterior assessment this way with your patient lying down. Then, strike the finger placed on the patient’s skin with the end of the middle finger of your dominant hand. You are listening and feeling for differences. For someone that has a history of tobacco use, I would anticipate hyper resonance because tobacco use can cause emphysema or COPD. The action of breathing in and out is due to changes of pressure within the thorax, in comparison with the outside. This action is also known as external respiration . When we inhale the intercostal muscles (between the ribs) and diaphragm contract to expand the chest cavity. The diaphragm flattens and moves downwards and the intercostal muscles move the rib cage upwards and out. This increase in size decreases the internal air pressure and air from the outside (at a now higher pressure that inside the thorax) rushes into the lungs to equalise the pressures. When we exhale the diaphragm and intercostal muscles relax and return to their resting positions. This reduces the size of the thoracic cavity, thereby increasing the pressure and forcing air out of the lungs

by

COMMENT THOMAS DQ2 2025

I NEED A POSITIVE COMMENT BASED IN THIS ARGUMENT..BETWEEN 100-120 WORDS Compare and contrast two change theories, and determine which theory makes the most sense for implementing your specific EBP project. Why? Has your mentor used either theory, and to what result? The first change theory is Lewin’s Change Theory. This theory is very widely used in nursing. This theory has three stages the unfreezing stage, moving stage, and refreezing stage. The theory has driving and resistant forces and for the theory to be successful the driving forces have to overcome the resistant forces. The other change theory is Rogers’ Change Theory. This theory has 5 stages and they are awareness, interest, evaluation, implementation and adoption.(Oguejiofo,2017) It is successful when nurses who ignored the proposed change earlier adopt it because of what they hear from nurses who adopted it initially. Both of these theory’s are widely used in nursing and both require nurses that want the change or who are willing to make the change. My mentor has used the Lewin’s change theory recently. The hospital already has hourly rounding but she just introduced new paperwork that has to be signed every hour. The unfreezing period she just explained how the new way will be better and she showed the nurses how it will be easier because the techs can also sign the sheet. The moving stage she let the nurses tell her how they feel about the whole situation and letting them express what they think will work. The final stage is refreezing and during this stage she went around for the first week making sure the nurses get this in their daily habit. I believe this theory makes more sense to my EBP because there are a lot of nurses that will be the driving force to make this happen and less people being the resistant force. So, it will be more likely to succeed. References: Oguejiofo,N. September 26, 2017. Change Theories in Nursing. https://bizfluent.com/about-5544426-change-theories-nursing.html

Describe two external stressors that are unique to adolescents 2025

opic 3 DQ 2 Adolescence is a period of growth and development that occurs between childhood and adulthood. As they continue to form an identity, they face many difficulties in integrating themselves into society; they do not belong to either the childhood or adult groups. Any transition that upsets the balance of our lives and forces us to adapt is referred to as a stressor. Stress may be described as physical or mental tension experienced as a result of life events. They don’t stress factors affecting adolescents are here or social stressor and self-esteem and sexual stressor. Rejections when they begin to form intimate relationships, teasing or being teased, as this is the moment that teenage bodies are undergoing physical changes such as weight gain, awkwardness, acne growth, and so on, are all possible peer or social stressors. Other sources of tension during this time include education and the need to excel, dealing with a family crisis, and online social lives. Self-esteem and sexual stressors are normal in puberty as their bodies shift, they continue to develop sexual identities, and self-esteem may be low. An adolescent’s life revolves around fitting in, and identifying sexually outside of what is considered normal (i.e., bisexual, homosexual, transgender/gender neutral) can be stressful. Society does not often tolerate these kinds of sexual identities, and their bullying, teasing, gossip, and family rejection of their decisions contribute to a poor sense of self-esteem. As a result, when puberty is confronted by stressors like these, they feel depressed and resort to action to cope. Social avoidance, behaving violently against others, or self-abuse, as well as consuming alcohol or using drugs, are examples of those behaviors. When these fails to properly relive the stress experienced by the teenager, they may consider or attempt suicide. Any of the reinforcement or coping mechanisms that may be used are mentioned below. Since nurses’ assessments are critical for understanding stressor signs and symptoms, this would help nurses to understand how the teenager is feeling and speak about it when their adult is not present. As a result, they would feel more at ease debating those topics. We will teach them to talk about their feelings by giving them things to talk about that they are comfortable with. When it comes to suicidal thoughts or acts, ask them simple questions. To ease tension, encourage healthy coping skills such as sports or exercise, listening to music, or praying. If they don’t feel comfortable talking about their emotions, they can write them down in a diary as a stress reliever. Giving them information about support groups where they can go on their own and get assistance is another informative opportunity. Some of the support groups- self-esteem: Teens Health.org, gender identity question or stress associated with the subject: gay, lesbian and straight education Network (www.gisen.org), Bullying: www.bullying.org or kidshealth.org. Depression and suicide are complex issues and get torn on the flesh for adolescents. It is important for nurses to use communication and sensitivity in education for this group. Respond using 200-300 words APA format with references supporting the discussion. Describe two external stressors that are unique to adolescents. Discuss what risk-taking behaviors may result from the external stressors and what support or coping mechanism can be introduced.
