Instructions
For this assessment, select an issue of interest an apply the PICO(T) process to define the question and research it.
Your initial goal is to define the population, intervention, comparison, and outcome. In some cases, a time frame is
relevant and you should include that as well, when writing a question you can research related to your issue of
interest. After you define your question, research it, and organize your initial findings, select the two sources of
evidence that seem the most relevant to your question and analyze them in more depth. Specifically, interpret each
source’s specific findings and best practices related to your issues, as well explain how the evidence would help you
plan and make decisions related to your question.
If you need some structure to organize your initial thoughts and research, the PICOT Question and Research
Template document (accessible from the “Create PICO(T) Questions” page in the Capella library’s Evidence Based
Practice guide) might be helpful.
In your submission, make sure you address the following grading criteria:
Define a practice issue to be explored via a PICO(T) approach.
Identify sources of evidence that could be potentially effective in answering a PICO(T) question.
Explain the findings from articles or other sources of evidence.
Explain the relevance of the findings from chosen sources of evidence to making decision related to a PICO(T)
question.
Communicate using writing that is clear, logical, and professional with correct grammar and spelling using
current APA style.
Your assessment should meet the following requirements:
Length of submission: Create a 3–5-page submission focused on defining a research question and
interpreting evidence relevant to answering it. A title page is not required but you must include a reference
list.
Number of references: Cite a minimum of four sources of scholarly or professional evidence that support
your findings and considerations. Resources should be no more than 5 years old.
APA formatting: Format references and citations according to current APA style.
