Unit 6. The ability to accurately locate, read, and understand research is applicable across a wide range of careers, including any field with an evidence-based component for potential outcomes. Critically analyzing research beyond the undergraduate level is a skill that carries over this strategy of evidence gathering to practical and research-based levels of employment. In this assessment, you will gain a better understanding of a research study, including its potential ethical considerations and the methodology used to achieve results.<\/p>\n
