NUR-550 Topic 4 DQ 2 Identify a data collection tool you could use for your research
Topic 4 DQ 2
Dec 15-19, 2022
Identify a data collection tool you could use for your research. Consider how you could employ translational research to potentially overcome barriers, which may arise during data collection. Identify the best type of translational research to address this barrier and provide rationale for the type you have chosen. What strategies would you employ to provide an understanding of your chosen type of translational research and to gather collaborative support?

UPDATED–here is another link for a similar video as the other one did not work.
Optional assignment for participation credit.
Watch the 5-minute you tube video on validity and reliability. Please give 3 differences between reliability and validity (there were several discussed).

1.Reliability is about the consistency of a measure
validity is about the accuracy of a measure.
2.A valid measurement is usually reliable
3.If a measurement is not reliable, it’s likely not valid
4.Reliability is not equal to validity

Reliability is the degree to which results can be replicated under the same or similar conditions/methods, while validity is whether the study methods/tools measure what they claim to be measuring (Hall, 2022).
Another difference is that reliability describes how consistent a study’s methods/results are, but validity just looks at how/what a tool measures (Hall, 2022).
Lastly, and most importantly, reliability does not equal validity and vice versa (Hall, 2022). It is necessary for researchers to understand their differences in order to achieve reliable and valid scientific evidence.
Reference Identify either a safety or quality improvement initiative related to improving population health.

Reliability-extent to which the results can be replicated under the same conditions
- If you read the procedures of the study, should be able to replicate it
- Saying something is consistent
Validity—do the results measure what they are supposed to measure
- Data collection procedures measuring what they are suppose too
- Example: wanting to test reading comprehensions, but ask students to respond to a writing prompt…that would be testing their writing skills not reading comphrension
References: Identify either a safety or quality improvement initiative related to improving population health.

Thank you for sharing the informative and interesting video. Three differences between reliability and validity that I was able to identify from the video is that 1) reliability focuses on the how something is being measured and validity focus on the what is being measured. 2) If a process is reliable it can be repeated to obtain the same results, if a process is valid it is accurately addressing the issue or question at hand. 3) Reliability and validity are not equal to one another, but they do depend on one another. It is very difficult to have a valid result that is not reliable.

There are multiple data collection tools that are used in research. These tools range from surveys to interviews to observations (Paradis et al., 2016). For my research, the best data collection tool would be content analysis of photography/video recordings (Paradis et al., 2016). When comparing infant safe sleep environments before and after an intervention, analyzing the adherence to safe sleep guidelines via checklist at different points in time will determine if the intervention was successful and collect necessary data.
Some barriers that may arise during data collection include lack of response by parents/parents not sending in photos of infant sleep spaces in a timely manner (Canty et al., 2020). In order to address this barrier, T2 translational research should be employed with considerations for parents with access to fewer resources (Canty et al., 2020). Using the T2 phase of translational research will help researchers see what efforts need to be employed to promote adherence to parents sending photos/videos to their healthcare professionals.
In order to gather collaborative support on my translational research, I would educate obstetric clinics and hospitals with labor and delivery units on the disparity of sudden unexpected infant deaths (SUIDs) among African American populations. The disparity
demonstrates that something needs to be done to help prevent SUIDs, starting with making sure infants sleep in safe environments via telehealth communications to help prevent this occurrence. Education and presentation of current studies/evidence on this topic could help foster collaboration and understanding for this research.
