OTH 670: Professional Research II

Professional Research II is designed to be the culminating experience of the research series in occupational therapy. This course will continue to provide students with a working knowledge of research methodology focusing on data analysis, writing, and reporting skills. Data collected in the previous semester will be analyzed, interpreted and reported back to research participants and the community. The class meetings will involve data entry using computer software programs, peer debriefings, and other analytic discussions related to formulating the research findings. Students will interpret results and identify impact in professional application to OT practice. Each student will be required to write a final manuscript following the required library format outlined by the college. As a final requirement, students will present their research experiences at the end of the semester in a professional public forum.
