Write a 3-4 page research paper based on article attached?

Given the Article is: "Determining Nurses' Readiness for EBP"

The levels of evidence answer the type of question you are asking and then questions 1-6 are 2 in that section and you need to incorporate the two tables into that section. Tables are listed below after the questions that need to be answered.

Questions:

1. Do the authors have the appropriate clinical and educational credentials for this research study? What are the strengths and weaknesses of this research team?

2. Is there evidence of any conflict of interest that might introduce bias into the way the study is designed or the way the results are viewed? Do the authors have any potential to realize a financial gain from the results of this study?

3. What is the evidence that this journal is peer-reviewed? Find the home page of this journal on the Web. Does the journal have an editorial board?

4. Does the journal have anything to gain by publishing positive or negative results from this study?

5. Is there evidence of bias in the way the study was designed or implemented? If so, how does it affect the nurses' use of these data in the practice setting?

6. Appraise the level of evidence this research study provides the nurse and the strength of the recommendation for practice provided by the results.

Table 1.4 : Rating Systems for Grading Levels of Evidence

Level of Rating	Type of Study
Level I	Multiple randomized controlled trials (RCTs) reported as meta-analysis, systematic review, or meta-synthesis, with results that consistently support a specific intervention or treatment Randomized trials with large sample sizes and large effect sizes
Level II	Evidence from well-designed controlled studies, either randomized or nonrandomized, with results that consistently support a specific intervention or treatment
Level III	Evidence from studies of intact groups Ex-post-facto and causal-comparative studies Case-control or cohort studies Evidence obtained from time series with and without an intervention Single experimental or quasi-experimental studies with dramatic effect sizes
Level IV	Evidence from integrative reviews Systematic reviews of qualitative or descriptive studies Theory-based evidence and expert opinion Peer-reviewed professional organization standards with supporting clinical studies

Table 1.5 The Link Between Evidence and Recommendations for Practice

Type of Evidence	Clear Evidence of Benefit or Harm	Benefit and Harm Are Balanced
Well-designed, randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or reports of multiple RCTs	Strong recommendation for or against the intervention.	Action is optional.
RCTs with limitations of quasi-experimental studies	Recommendation for or against the intervention.	Action is optional.
Observational and descriptive studies, case controls, and cohort designs	Recommendation for or against the intervention.	Action is optional.
Expert opinion, case studies	Action is optional.	No recommendation for or against the intervention.
