If you are studying the social sciences, a more appropriate system may be SPICE:
Here is an example of how it works:
Setting | Scotland |
---|---|
Population or Perspective | Teenagers |
Intervention | Provision of Quit Kits to support smoking cessation |
Comparison | No support or "cold turkey" |
Evaluation | Number of successful attempts to give up smoking with Quit Kits compared to number of successful attempts with no support. |
Here is a summary of the process you’ll use to find evidence for your group project. Remember that you will usually be looking for primary research evidence. There is lots of ‘pre-appraised evidence’ out there. As a practitioner this will often be your first port of call (Cochrane, CRD, SIGN, NHSQIS, NICE, - look in your library subject guide gateways section for links). If you need help in using these resources, come to a library drop in session or contact your librarian for help.
