Physical therapy approach in Metabolic syndrome
Article Critiques: The articles must be research (actual research study) articles from peer reviewed journals and related to metabolic disorders. You should not choose a literature review or a case study. You must provide copies of the articles as well. Follow the grading criteria closely. Do not just directly copy paragraphs from the article. The article may not specifically describe each area in the grading criteria. However, you must provide this information. For Example: -The article may not specifically describe threats to internal/external validity. Based on what you read in the article, you need to determine what may be a threat to internal/external validity. -The article will probably not mention relevancy to clinical practice. You need to determine this based on your specific discipline. You should follow the grading criteria exactly. I would like you to include an underlined sub-heading for each grading criteria. Under the heading you can provide the requested information. 13 For example: the article critique grading criteria includes the following items: – Recent material pertinent to subject. – – Clear statement of research purpose. – – Identification of population, subjects, examiners. – – Operational definitions of pertinent aspects of research. – – Defines independent and dependent variables. – – Clear statement of research results. – – Clear statement of research limitations. – – Examines threats to internal/external validity. – – Addresses relevancy to clinical practice. You should have an underlined heading for each of the above. grading of article critique Recent material pertinent to subject. 5 pts.
