| Description | The unit aims to extend and consolidate the students’ knowledge and understanding of evidence-based research theory and practice acquired earlier in PRI204 Research Methods, and provide an opportunity to apply their knowledge of research theory, practice-research, and research data analysis and evaluation skills to the investigation of a specific TCM problem or issue. Emphasis throughout this unit will be focused on the ethical application of the principles of evidence-based research practice through the critique of research questionnaires, undertaking literature reviews, the critical evaluation of their own and others’ research proposals and the development of a research project in Chinese medicine. The unit instils in students a deep respect for and commitment to evidence-based research practice in Chinese medicine and to enhance and deepen their developing knowledge and understanding of best practice in research undertakings. This will be achieved through lectures and assessment tasks that focus on advanced research methodologies, statistical measurement and ethical research practice in a clinical setting. |
