What can explain this phenomenon?
A study once found that, for any given year, there was a positive correlation between ice cream consumption and the crime rate (during the summer months). If ice cream consumption was high for a given year, the crime rate was also high; if consumption was low, the crime rate was also low. What can explain this phenomenon?

Name two different methods for evaluating evidence. Compare and contrast these two methods.
Topic 3 DQ 2
Two different methods for evaluating evidence include quantitative and qualitative techniques.
Quantitative techniques include methods that focus on objective measurements and analyzing numbers to draw conclusions about research subjects (Reference, 2020). This type of evaluation collects and measures data by using standard deviation, mean, average and other statistical parameters.
Qualitative is another form of research, but this does not involve numbers instead it collects information based on opinions and experiences. According to Aspers and Corte (2019), qualitative research is a process that improves the understanding of the scientific community by making new significant distinctions resulting in getting closer to the phenomenon studied. This means that the qualitative technique uses data collection without numerical measurable parameters.
Both are important in evaluating evidence, while quantitative gives actual numerical data, qualitative attempts to find an answer or a why to what is in question. Both qualitative and quantitative work great when used together. Qualitative does not necessarily need a large number while quantitative does collect from a larger number. The difference is that quantitative can be used to represent the general population, while qualitative can not.
When evaluating evidence, one wants to look at the article to identify the population in study and if it is appropriate for the research one is conducting. One also wants to look at the validity of the article for example if the methods and conclusions accurately reflect the end results. This includes looking at if the article is quantitative, qualitative, or both in nature.
Name two different methods for evaluating evidence. Compare and contrast these two methods.

In order to design the most efficient flow of work through an organization, it is useful to understand workflow and the ways it can be structured for the most optimal use of time and resources.he implementation of a new technology can dramatically affect the workflow of an organization. Newly implemented technologies can initially limit the productivity of users as they adjust to their new tools. Such implementations tend to be so significant that they often require workflows to be redesigned in order to achieve improvements in safety and patient outcomes. However, before workflows can be redesigned, they must first be analyzed. This analysis includes each step in completing a certain process. Some systems duplicate efforts or contain unnecessary steps that waste time and money and could even jeopardize patient health care. By reviewing and modifying the workflow, you enable greater productivity. This drive to implement new technologies has elevated the demand for nurses who can perform workflow analysis. In this Discussion you explore resources that have been designed to help guide you through the process of workflow assessment. To prepare: Take a few minutes and peruse the information found in the article ?Workflow Assessment for Health IT Toolkit? listed in this week?s Learning Resources. As you check out the information located on the different tabs, identify key concepts that you could use to improve a workflow in your own organization and consider how you could use them. Go the Research tab and identify and read one article that is of interest to you and relates to your specialty area.Post a summary of three different concepts you found in ?Workflow Assessment for Health IT Toolkit? that would help in redesigning a workflow in the organization in which you work (or one with which you are familiar) and describe how you would apply them. Next, summarize the article you selected and assess how you could use the information to improve workflow within your organization. Finally, evaluate the importance of monitoring the effect of technology on workflow.McGonigle, D., & Mastrian, K. G. (2015). Nursing informatics and the foundation of knowledge (3rd ed.). Burlington, MA: Jones and Bartlett Learning. Chapter 14, ?Nursing Informatics: Improving Workflow and Meaningful Use? Huser, V., Rasmussen, L. V., Oberg, R., & Starren, J. B. (2011).
