Annotated bibliography paper

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Based on the potential problem you encountered for Family Nurse Practitioners, write a 4 pages document providing a critical evaluation on that research through an annotated bibliography. An annotated bibliography is a brief summary and analysis of the journal article reviewed. A total of four annotated bibliographies are to be submitted (one page each). The articles must come from nursing scholarly literature, may not be older than 5 years since publication, must be research based and reflect a quantitative methodology. Web pages, magazines, textbooks, and other books are not acceptable. 

Each annotation must address the following critical elements:

  • Explanation of the main purpose and scope of the cited work
  • Brief description of the research conducted
  • Value and significance of the work (e.g., study’s findings, scope of the research project) as a contribution to the subject under consideration
  • Possible shortcomings or bias in the work
  • Conclusions or observations reached by the author
  • Summary as to why this research lends evidence to support the potential problem identified specific to your role option.
