Rough Draft Quantitative Research Critique and Ethical Considerations
1: Unsatisfactory (0.00%)
Only one article is presented. Neither of the articles
presented use quantitative research.
Background of study, including problem, significance to
nursing, purpose, objective, and research questions, is
incomplete.
Discussion on how articles support the PICOT question is
incomplete.
Discussion on the method of study for each article is omitted.
The comparison of study methods is omitted or incomplete.
Discussion of study results, including findings and implications
for nursing practice, is incomplete.
Anticipated outcomes for the PICOT are omitted or are
unrealistic. Comparison of research article outcomes to
anticipated outcomes is incomplete.
Paper lacks any discernible overall purpose or organizing
claim.
Statement of purpose is not justified by the conclusion. The
conclusion does not support the claim made. Argument is
incoherent and uses noncredible sources.
Surface errors are pervasive enough that they impede
communication of meaning. Inappropriate word choice or
sentence construction is used.
Template is not used appropriately or documentation format
is rarely followed correctly.
Sources are not documented.

2: Less Than Satisfactory (75.00%)
Two articles are presented. Of the articles presented, only
one article is based on quantitative research.
Background of study, including problem, significance to
nursing, purpose, objective, and research questions, is
included but lacks relevant details and explanation.
A summary of how articles support the PICOT question is
presented. It is unclear how the articles can be used to
answer the proposed PICOT question. Significant information
and detail is required.
A partial summary of the method of study for each article is
presented. The comparison of study methods is incomplete.
A benefit and a limitation of each method are omitted or
incomplete. There are significant inaccuracies.
A summary of the study results includes findings and
implications for nursing practice but lacks relevant details and
explanation. There are some omissions or inaccuracies.
Anticipated outcomes for the PICOT are partially summarized.
Comparison of research article outcomes to anticipated
outcomes contains omissions of key information. It is unclear
how the anticipated outcomes of the PICOT and those of the
current research mentioned compare.
Thesis is insufficiently developed or vague. Purpose is not
clear.
Sufficient justification of claims is lacking. Argument lacks
consistent unity. There are obvious flaws in the logic. Some
sources have questionable credibility.
Frequent and repetitive mechanical errors distract the
reader. Inconsistencies in language choice (register), sentence

outcomes is generally presented. More information is needed
to fully establish how the anticipated outcomes of the PICOT
and those of the current research mentioned compare.

Argument is orderly, but may have a few inconsistencies. The
argument presents minimal justification of claims. Argument
logically, but not thoroughly, supports the purpose. Sources
used are credible. Introduction and conclusion bracket the
thesis.
