Learning objectives
Il corso si pone l’obiettivo di far acquisire agli studenti un repertorio di
conoscenze, abilità e capacità di riflessione critica rispetto all’utilizzo
della ricerca, stante la rilevanza della stessa nella professione
infermieristica ed ostetrica. Gli studenti dovranno dimostrare di aver
compreso ed assimilato il processo della ricerca in tutte le fasi che lo
compongono, evidenziando le differenze insite nelle diverse tipologie di
studi. Essi dovranno saper leggere ed analizzare criticamente i risultati
della ricerca, nazionale ed internazionale, attingendo alle fonti delle
migliori prove di efficacia disponibili. Saranno costruiti con gli studenti i
passaggi fondamentali del processo della ricerca, con particolare grado di
approfondimento per le prime due fasi.
Gli Studenti sapranno delineare in modo specifico una possibile area
problematica, formulare correttamente il quesito della ricerca,
individuare e formulare l’ipotesi di ricerca e selezionare il disegno della
ricerca pertinente.
Ci si propone di far acquisire agli studenti gli strumenti principali per la
preparazione di un progetto di ricerca quali- quantitativo, applicabile alle
specifiche aree di competenza infermieristica ed ostetrica.

literature: aims, primary sources, secondary sources - Guidelines for the
critique of a research report - Classification of variables: definition and
different types depending on the type of study and the research question
- causal relationships between the variables - Formulation of the

(quantitative and qualitative), the purpose of design - Materials and
Methods - Tools for Checking dell'ipostesi Research - Principles of

Ethical considerations related to research.
It should be noted that, as a compendium of theoretical concepts, the
focus will be constantly orients nanny to the presentation of examples
and case studies drawn from everyday contexts of care.

Teaching methods
Lectures and interactive with the use of audiovisual aids, classroom
discussion with students, group and individual processing. The course will be held through lectures to Students either in the classroom (“in presenza”) or in synchronous-streaming (“in telepresenza”) on the Teams platform. Therefore, the opportunity of Student/Teacher interaction will be preserved both face to face and remotely, by the simultaneous use of the Teams platform.
Lectures will be supported by slide presentations, which will be available to students on the Elly platform (https://elly.medicina.unipr.it).
Lectures will be held on-site in compliance with safety standards, provided that further instructions on the ongoing health emergency are not implemented. Supporting material will be available on the specific, student-reserved platform (Elly) and will include slide presentations, audio-video aids or video-recording of the lectures.
