Guidelines for the Critical Appraisal of Qualitative Research:
What was the study purpose? What was the qualitative study approach (i.e. Ethnography, phenomenology, historical, grounded theory)? Are the two consistent? (10 points)
What is the significance of the study? Does the review of the literature support it? (10 points)
Describe the sample (who, size, how selected, inclusion and exclusion criteria). Did the sample size and composition reflect the study needs and qualitative approach? (10 points)
What were the phenomena of interest? How were data collected? Did the investigator verify the data? (10 points)
Describe data analysis. Was data management described? (10 points)
What were the results? Were quotes used to illustrate? Give an example. (10 points)
What does this research mean for clinical practice/managerial decision-making? (10 pts.)
What would you recommend for future research on this issue/problem? (10 pts.)
What did the authors identify as limitations of the study? Were there other limitations that you detected? (10 pts)
Clarity of writing, APA format adhered to (10 pts) *Read the APA sheet and listen to the audio before turning in your paper.
Note:
Number your responses to the 9 questions above.
Most questions will be answered in a paragraph or two. If you are repeating information you probably answered one of the questions incorrectly.
Tip – Limit your use of direct quotes. It is much better to learn to paraphrase. If you do use a direct quote, enclose it in quotation marks and cite the page number.
Since it is clear you are referring to one article, you only need to cite it once in the beginning and once at the end. Please don’t reference every sentence.

*Be sure to use APA format and include a title page and reference page
