COPES framework:\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>a system for helping practitioners frame clear practice questions to guide their search for evidence.<\/p>\n

distal outcomes:\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>effects or impact of an intervention that appear in the long-term or long-range time frame.<\/p>\n

effect size: <\/em><\/strong>a quantitative (statistical) indicator of the size or magnitude of an observed difference, helping interpret how meaningful a difference might be.<\/p>\n

errata: <\/em><\/strong>means of correcting errors that appeared in print (published errors).<\/p>\n

inputs:\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>the resources committed to an intervention or change effort.<\/p>\n

keywords:\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>search terms associated with a manuscript to assist those seeking to locate information on the topics covered.<\/p>\n

logic model:\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>a \u201cmap\u201d of an intervention plan that includes the various inputs and outputs anticipated.<\/p>\n

mechanism of change:\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>the underlying processes leading to a change outcome, often identified as mediators of influence.<\/p>\n

mediators:\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>variables or factors that influence or determine the path between an \u201cinput\u201d and \u201coutcome\u201d (see mechanism of change).<\/p>\n

meta-analysis:\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>form of systematic statistical analysis allowing data from multiple studies to be combined into a single analysis to assess an intervention\u2019s impact common to each of the included studies.<\/p>\n

outputs:\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>the results, effects, or impacts of an intervention effort.<\/p>\n

PICO framework:\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>a system for helping practitioners frame clear practice questions to guide their search for evidence, common in medical professions.<\/p>\n

precision (of search):\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>a concept from information science related to the proportion of items retrieved from a search strategy (query).<\/p>\n

proximal outcomes:\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>effects or impact of an intervention that appear in the short-term or immediate time frame.<\/p>\n

psychometric properties: <\/em><\/strong>results of analysis concerning the validity and reliability characteristics of a measurement instrument, indicative of how valid and reliable the instrument is for measuring the intended constructs; psychometric properties may vary with different populations being measured.<\/p>\n

scoping review: <\/em><\/strong>a form of systematic review that applies less stringent (precise) criteria, typically applied when an area or topic is emerging and insufficiently developed for a formal systematic or meta-analysis review to be conducted.<\/p>\n

sensitivity (of search):\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>a concept from information science related to the inclusiveness or breadth in range of items retrieved from a search strategy (query).<\/p>\n

systematic review: <\/em><\/strong>a summary of evidence presented in literature that is conducted systematically, applying unbiased criteria for locating, reviewing, and critiquing the literature and integrating the analysis results.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"menu_order":8,"template":"","meta":{"pb_show_title":"on","pb_short_title":"","pb_subtitle":"","pb_authors":[],"pb_section_license":""},"chapter-type":[],"contributor":[],"license":[],"class_list":["post-106","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"part":61,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.ulib.csuohio.edu\/swk627\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/106","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.ulib.csuohio.edu\/swk627\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.ulib.csuohio.edu\/swk627\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.ulib.csuohio.edu\/swk627\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.ulib.csuohio.edu\/swk627\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/106\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":107,"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.ulib.csuohio.edu\/swk627\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/106\/revisions\/107"}],"part":[{"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.ulib.csuohio.edu\/swk627\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/parts\/61"}],"metadata":[{"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.ulib.csuohio.edu\/swk627\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapters\/106\/metadata\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.ulib.csuohio.edu\/swk627\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=106"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"chapter-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.ulib.csuohio.edu\/swk627\/wp-json\/pressbooks\/v2\/chapter-type?post=106"},{"taxonomy":"contributor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.ulib.csuohio.edu\/swk627\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/contributor?post=106"},{"taxonomy":"license","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pressbooks.ulib.csuohio.edu\/swk627\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/license?post=106"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
