FOR THIS ASSIGNMENT YOU MUST: 1) DOWNLOAD AND COMPLETE THIS FORM AND TURN IN A WORD DOCUMENT AND……………. 2) UPLOAD A COMPLETE PDF OF YOUR CHOSEN ARTICLE FAILURE TO DO SO WILL RESULT IN A MINMUM OF 15 POINT DEDUCTION Please ensure that your selected study is an original qualitative study, NOT A SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW OR A SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW WITH A META ANALYSIS Complete the following information. Be specific in your responses. You must present a rationale for ALL items. No yes or no responses are accepted. This is a critical analysis of the article. Copying of information from the article with no analysis or rationale will not be accepted. If there are areas the author did not address, you are expected to give potential research questions, theoretical constructs, etc. If for example interrator reliability was not addressed how could it have been addressed in the study? This critique is to demonstrate your synthesis of research content. 1. Statement of the Phenomenon of Interest Item Response a. What is the phenomenon of interest? Is it clearly identified? What is it? How is it identified? The type of individuals targeted for the research are the adults with diabetes type 1 and type 2 who take the ketogenic nutrition regularly as a standard eating plan (Wong et al., 2021). That is why the researchers are interested in learning about the effects that the ketogenic diet has on these people and how it affects their day-to-day existence and diabetes. This has now been made very clear as the area of concern in this study. b. Has the researcher included an explanation about why the phenomenon requires a qualitative format? Does the explanation seem clear and logical? Wong et al. (2021) further posit that a qualitative method is appropriate because personal experiences are multifaceted and unique (Wong et al., 2021). This approach makes sense because surveying people with diabetes on a ketogenic diet may involve other qualitative considerations that are often not reflected in numbers. 2. Purpose Item Response a. What is the purpose of the study and is it made explicit? Give a rationale for your response. The research aims to comprehend the qualitative reality of individuals with type 1 and type 2 diabetes who are on keto food (Wong et al., 2021). This purpose is clear and corresponds to the qualitative approach, which implies studying personal experiences (Polit & Beck, 2020). b.. Does the explanation seem appropriate and logical? Give a rationale for your response. The description is relevant since it relates the study's goal to the decision to adopt a qualitative approach (Wong et al., 2021). Therefore, the researchers will target participants' stories on how keto food impacts diabetes, diet preference, and social interactions. 3. Methodology Item Response a. What is the tradition or design of the study? Is it compatible with the purpose of the study? Give a rationale for your response. The research employs a descriptive qualitative cross-sectional study design that is suitable for the research objective and the aim of the study, which is to describe people's experiences with ketogenetic diets (Wong et al., 2021). The phenomenological approach enables the researchers to examine participants’ experiences from a highly individualistic perspective emphasizing subjectivity. b. Is the method adequate to address the phenomenon of interest? Give a rationale for your response. ...
