Purchase options and add-ons

Develop the knowledge and skills you need to become a research-literate, evidence-based practitioner with this user-friendly book. Mirroring the way practicing nurses read research reports, the book begins with a research article’s conclusion—the section that most directly addresses the clinical meaning of a research study—and works “backward” through each section in the research article.
Organized around user-centered questions, such as how conclusions were reached, which patients the conclusions apply to, and how the study was done, each chapter begins with a clinical case that identifies the clinical question the nurse is seeking to answer and one or two published research articles that directly relate to the clinical case.
  • See the relevance of research to clinical practice through the authors’ unique approach that helps you learn about research methodology in a natural, intuitive way.
  • Explore the ways that becoming research literate will help your clinical practice with Rebar & Gersch Evidence-Based Bridge Theory .
  • Increase your understanding of difficult, abstract concepts through visually dynamic graphics.
  • Broaden your knowledge with enhanced coverage of two important forms of nursing research—systematic reviews and mixed method research, including the AAAAA Evidence-Based Practice Model.
  • Become a savvy consumer of research with an easy-to-understand review of the basic statistical information necessary for interpreting research studies.
  • Access clinical cases that reflect nursing practice in a variety of settings, from acute care to public health and across a range of specialties.
  • Find the information you need fast with anytime, anywhere access to the fully searchable text online.

    Cherie R. Rebar, PhD, MBA, RN, CNE, CNEcl, COI, FAADN loves to write. As a nurse educator, she has spent most of her life in a college classroom as a student or as a professor. She holds degrees and certificates from some of her favorite places – Morehead State University, UMass Boston, and the University of Cincinnati (among others). In addition to writing, she is currently a tenured professor of nursing at Wittenberg University. Dr. Rebar’s favorite roles are that of wife, mother, and friend. She is an avid iced coffee drinker, a big fan of Bands of America and Drum Corps International, and a dedicated follower of University of Kentucky basketball. Her favorite place to be is the ocean and she is a Ravenclaw at heart. Her best buddy is her 12-year-old rescue dog, Flash the Basset Hound. It is debatable whether Dr. Rebar rescued Flash, or Flash rescued Dr. Rebar.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kindle version vs. textbook
Reviewed in the United States on May 7, 2018
Verified Purchase
This is my first textbook rental using the kindle version. I love that you can access the readings on all my devices. You can highlight, take notes, and make flash cards. You can also search through your notes and highlighted sections. This version beats carrying a bulky book around and risking damage to it if you’re renting.

I bought this book for my nursing research class as a requirement. It's very organized and easy to follow. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in getting an understanding of how to read research papers and the best way to read the papers to get the most out of the dense information they contain.

I needed the book that day for homework and it was also cheaper to buy the kindle edition. I used it on my macbook and it worked perfectly. I'd recommend the kindle edition if you need it for class. But the book itself is hard to follow.
