Research Quality in Nursing

The essential foundations and paradigms in quality that all Nursing Research must comply with”

Although there is no clear consensus on what constitutes research quality, there is agreement on some of the requirements that a research study must meet to be considered quality work.  
Traditionally, quantitative methodology must meet criteria such as validity, generalizability, reliability and replicability. From other designs with qualitative and mixed methodologies, other criteria have been proposed, such as credibility or contribution to science or social change.

As important as it is to always try to promote studies of the highest possible quality, it is equally important to analyze and assess the quality of the scientific documents that reach the researcher, with the ultimate goal of being able to recognize that relevant unspecialized and with the best degree of scientific evidence, applicable to daily practice or to communicate to the scientific community.

Research or project presentations involve more than simple communication or socialization of a finished work. Quality presentations can become a real instrument for knowledge production, which makes them a determining factor in the research process itself. When elaborating oral or written communication, a series of basic steps must be followed in order to satisfy some of the following conditions: visual appeal, personality, balance, aesthetic quality, clarity in the explanation of ideas, quick understanding of the hierarchy and distribution of parts, synthesis and rigor.
