Module 04: Critical Thinking Assignment
Critical Thinking Assignment: Selecting Sources
Important! This is the first of several Critical Thinking assignments that will build the
foundation for a research paper due in Module 12.
In research, you should select research articles that are peer-reviewed and, in most
instances, are not more than five years old. When searching in the Saudi Digital Library, you
can limit the results by publication date and peer-reviewed journals so that you get the most
recent, credible research on the topic (see the image below). You can then look for those
results that allow you to access the full text.
Find 10 peer-reviewed articles to research one of the following topics of interest to you:
• Antibiotic use in healthcare
• Artificial Intelligence (AI)
• Big data analytics in healthcare
• Chronic diseases
• Clinical practice guidelines
• Communicable diseases
• Diabetic foot disease
• Ethical decision-making in healthcare
• Mental health
• Non-communicable diseases
• Patient safety culture
• Vaccines
This will be the topic that you will write about in the final research paper due in Module 12.
At least five articles should be empirical studies. Look for the theory that the study uses to
identify the hypothesis that is formulated. See the following article on theory in healthcare:
Aldahmash, A. M., Ahmed, Z., Qadri, F. R., Thapa, S., & AlMuammar, A. M.
(2019). Implementing a connected health intervention for remote patient monitoring in Saudi
Arabia and Pakistan: Explaining ‘the what’ and ‘the how’. Globalization and Health, 15(1), 20–
20. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12992-019-0462-1
Write a two-page overview of your topic and the reasons for selecting each of the references.
Be aware that you may find research articles that could be subtopics that may add interest to
the main topic. Submit all ten references and the two-page overview with a title page.
Follow APA 7th edition and Saudi Electronic University writing standards.
I want to help clarify CT 4 more for you. What you want to look for specifically in these
articles is qualitative and quantitative studies these are considered empirical studies. I would
add that if you are using the table template that I posted all you need is 1. the article title
and 2. the reasons for selecting the article. Then you provide the reference page with a list of
all your references.
Example of a table that you could use to show your 10 articles and explain your
reason for selection:
Study
Burden of stroke in the Kingdom of Saudi
Arabia: A soaring epidemic
Reason for selection
The authors cited that the aging population
is a contributing factor and strokes are
anticipated to double by 2030.
