Recommendations for Future Research Sample Clauses

Recommendations for Future Research. While the data collected in this survey provided a wealth of information about incoming HBCU male students, additional questions could be added to broaden the depth of data collected. Future data collection may be improved with the inclusion of general demographic and sexual behavior questions. For instance, previous research indicates that students report varying levels of condom use depending on sexual acts (e.g. oral, vagina, or anal) (Buhi et al., 2010). The existing survey did not distinguish between condom use for oral, vaginal, and anal sex, and only assessed condom use at last sex in general. Furthermore, previous studies have found that though condoms were used at last sex, condom use is not always consistent so assessment of condom use frequency may also be warranted (Xxxxxx et al., 2014a). The survey could also be improved by collecting information on history of STI testing, as well as previous experience with STI acquisition. High-risk sexual behaviors tend to increase during college as students have more freedom and may engage in other predictors of high-risk sexual behavior, such as drug or alcohol use (Hou, 2009; Xxx & Xxxxxxxxx, 2013). Furthermore, the literature identifies that high-risk and protective behaviors tend to evolve as emerging adults age. For example, younger emerging adults (e.g. 18-to-20 year olds) are more likely to have multiple partners but also use condoms more consistently, whereas older emerging adults (e.g. 21-to-24 year olds) are more likely to be monogamous, yet less likely to consistently use condoms (Hou, 2009; Sly et al., 2011; Washington et al., 2010). A longitudinal, repeated measures test design would allow for comparisons of high-risk and protective behavior indicators within-groups at different time points across the collegiate experience, as well as to make in-between group comparisons to assess differences among younger and older emerging adults. This data could elucidate emerging risk behaviors, protective behaviors, and evolving needs of students to inform student health services and important sexual health intervention topics. Future quantitative and qualitative studies could also assess HBCU-specific barriers to student health access and condom use, including religiosity, fears, and myths or misconceptions about student health and available sexual health resources. Furthermore, once students decide to use student health services, future studies could assess maintenance of healthy sexual health practices...
Recommendations for Future Research. ‌ The findings of the present study have a number of important implications for the future research. It would be recommended to focus on some open-ended questions as well, which invite students to be more open. The questions of the research instrument should not necessarily report bullying behaviour directly, it might be the questions, suggesting the participants to imagine the situation or describe their everyday school routine, for example, “How do you feel when you are on your way to school in the morning?” (Xxxxxxxx & Xxx, 2006, p.148). Thus, the future research might be designed qualitatively, because once the present study identified some trends, it would be beneficial to continue with in-depth qualitative study. The next recommendation would be to include other members of the school. For example, to continue the present study with investigating teachers’ awareness of the bullying behaviour in general and bullying among gifted and talented children in particular. The final suggestion for future research would be to continue investigating the prevalent type of bullying among high academically oriented students but focusing on younger students. This would allow a comparison between the older and younger age group of students. As this study was conducted in only one school, it could be replicated across several schools for the academically in Kazakhstan in order to look at a large study population.
Recommendations for Future Research. A qualitative research study would be useful to determine what happen to the stop outs and University withdrawals. There are many questions that still need to be answered. Did factors of academic difficulty, social connectedness, faculty, advisement, or overall customer service have any bearing on retention? What were the problems dealing with personal issues as moving, financial, or other life event? Was online learning a good fit with some students? Was course rigor a factor? The university and many other universities in the UNC system has moved to a degree pathway program where students can go to the Transfer and Advisement, Admissions, or Academic department website to locate community college/university equivalency curriculum guides. Transfer students can locate the guides and self-advise. There are definite advantages and disadvantages to self-advisement. Self-advisement through published degree plans eliminates additional work for transfer advisors. Transfer students will usually complete their associate’s degree before transferring and follow the university degree plan. The disadvantage to self-advisement is that the degree pathway will still leave some questions unanswered. Transfer students will have questions and individual situations beyond knowing what will transfer. Further research should be conducted to compare articulation agreements to degree pathways to determine if there is any significant outcome on transfer, retention, and graduation. In addition the researcher has suggested the following recommendations to improve student success and persistence.
Recommendations for Future Research. MHM research has relied heavily on qualitative methodologies and as a result, has strong documentation of personal experiences, this study included. However, limited study designs and methodologies may preclude a broader evidence base for MHM research and programming. Quantitative research, intervention trials, observational studies, participatory methods, operational research, natural experiments, and standardized outcome measures could be considered for future research (Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxxx et al., 2016; Xxxxxx & Sahin, 2013). This study contributes detailed accounts of menstruation for women across life stages and continued research centered on the experiences of women is recommended. MHM research primarily focuses on the experiences of adolescent girls in school settings and, while recent studies have centered on the experiences of women, this is a population that is largely overlooked in MHM programs, funding, and research. Finally, further research should engage the value of the proposed definition for adequate MHM. The revised definition was developed from the results of this specific sample and should be tested in other populations to evaluate its validity. If the definition proves to have broad utility, it can inform program development, monitoring, and evaluation efforts as it is more inclusive of the scope of women’s concerns and needs than the existing JMP definition.

Recommendations for Future Research. We recommend further research in the areas of healthcare personnel training, employment, and supervision in areas of CHE such as the DRC based on our study’s findings on the overall significance of increased eligible provider staffing. Although, many studies have explored a plethora of other health indicators contributing to MMR, such as socio-economic status of women or political implications of ongoing conflict, much still needs to learned regarding the significance of the quality of care that is currently available to women in these countries. While it has been said that “socio-economic development increases reproductive health” and “improvement in social development is likely to decrease the intensity of conflict”, conflict laden countries like the DRC may not see sustained political, social, and economic stability for many years to come (Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxx, 2013). Fortunately, as the DRC continues to evolve politically and socially, studies show that health infrastructures will inevitably develop as well. As women assume more permanent roles outside of the home due to improved education opportunities and career prospects, they will no longer rely on marriage and having children as a means of financial security and social acceptability. This shift “improves women's control over her well-being including reproductive health” (Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxx, 2013). Nevertheless, young girls and women deserve quality care now, “as helpless victims of war and conflict, women bear the short term as well long term ill effects of conflict”(Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxxx, 2013) . We advise humanitarian agencies to allocate appropriate funding for research and data collection on the quality of care women receive in areas of CHE to better understand and support women’s health outcomes and reduce the gap in health equity between those in the developed and the developing world.

Recommendations for Future Research. Future research projects should focus on determining the cause of the issues in reporting with hospitals that have Level III nurseries and NICUs, utilizing similar methodology employed in the Iyengar et al. (2014) article. Potential causes would be that the hospitals are completing the screenings but the results are not being reported to the GA DPH by means of the NBS Card, or the hospitals are not completing the screenings at all. One way to determine whether screenings were occurring or not would be a study that focused on abstracting medical records for NICUs and hospitals with Level III nurseries. The medical records would be randomly sampled based on the DPH data records of infants that do not have reported data for the CCHD screening and hearing tests. Evidence that this would be an effective method for determining if screening occurs through the provider survey. Eight hospitals indicated that the hospital used another method for reporting results of the screenings. Most of these hospitals indicated a process of inputting the data into the electronic medical record, though an electronic submission system only pertains to three hospitals in Georgia. A future study should utilize this information to determine if hospitals are completing the screenings. Based off the findings of this future study the GA DPH could develop two different approaches to address the issue. If hospitals with Level III nurseries and NICUs are not completing the screenings the GA DPH should develop materials to help better integrate the screenings into the hospitals’ current newborn screening procedures. However, if the results of the proposed study indicate that the screenings are occurring, but the results are not being reported to the GA DPH, then alterations to the current reporting system should be taken into consideration. Alterations to the reporting system may be most effective for NICUs since the screenings may occur at a later time period than what is intended by the current NBS Card.
Recommendations for Future Research. We recommend further studies to quantify and determine to what extent the understanding that unintended pregnancies are out of wedlock pregnancies and that all pregnancies within marriage are intended has direct effect on contraceptive practice. The effect of these beliefs on couples’ responses to survey that quantify unintended pregnancies also warrants further studies because we were not able to investigate whether the women’s meaning of unintended pregnancies would affect how they respond to survey questionnaires on pregnancy intention. We also recommend development of measures of unintended pregnancies that would take into consideration these context specific issues to minimize biases and determine the true burden. Furthermore, we recommend research on development of effective culturally, religious and gender sensitive sexual health interventions tailored for rural areas like these.
Recommendations for Future Research. The field of CAM research among HIV-positive populations is still in its nascent stages. However, given the increasing popularity of CAM use among this population, it is imperative that the assessment of CAM be rigorous and thorough so that HIV healthcare providers can be adequately informed about their patients’ CAM-related behaviors, knowledge and beliefs. More educated providers will ultimately provide better quality of care for the patients. The first step in this process requires CAM researchers to be more thoughtful in our development and implementation of CAM instruments. Most studies administer a “one size fits all” CAM measure typically consisting of simplistic questions (e.g., “Have you ever used any of the following types of CAM?”) followed by a laundry list of all possible CAM modalities, in spite of the fact that prior literature suggests that the CAM therapies used by study participants often vary by race/ethnicity and stage of disease. For example, while some modalities are considered CAM by most users (e.g., acupuncture), many other modalities are used primarily by only one ethnic group (e.g., the use of green tea and soy products by Asian-Americans, the use of a Curandero by Latinos, and the use of prayer or garlic by African-Americans, to name but a few)37-40. Other evidence indicates that individuals who report more clinic visits, have lower Helper T-Cell levels and higher HIV viral load may be more likely to use different types of CAM or use CAM more frequently compared to their healthier counterparts15, 41, 42. Yet, most studies with HIV-positive populations fail to administer CAM instruments that reflect an understanding of this diversity in CAM use by race/ethnicity or stage of disease. To accurately assess CAM utilization the questions asked must be tailored to the specific study population. The second step towards more rigorous CAM measurement involves more thorough assessment of this complex phenomenon in three ways. One, because of the inherently subjective nature of CAM24, questions must assess participants’ intentions with respect to their CAM use. For example, green tea may be listed on an instrument as a possible CAM therapy. Two participants may indicate that they drink green tea regularly; however, one does so because she believes it is anticarcinogenic while the other simply likes the taste. The former participant is using CAM, the latter is not. Failure to include an assessment of intention in CAM-related questions may re...
Recommendations for Future Research. Because the current study only examined HPV vaccine initiation, future research should analyze HPV initiation and series completion patterns as more nationally representative datasets begin to include male HPV vaccination measures. Additionally, researchers should further examine geographical predictors of male HPV vaccine uptake, paying close attention to regional and state policy differences and school-mandated vaccination programs when larger sample sizes are available. Future studies should also attempt to study the important differences in HPV vaccination outcomes by measuring race and ethnicity with two separate constructs. In the current study, sample size restrictions prohibited more detailed analysis on the three-way interactions between teen race, ethnicity, and provider recommendation on vaccine initiation. Additionally, we do not know what type of provider NIS-Teen adolescents see when they receive HPV vaccines, and provider type may be an important indicator for successful vaccine initiation. Because the NIS-Teen does not include a measure of provider race or ethnicity, we could not measure patient-provider racial concordance. Researchers should use provider surveys to further explore this topic, as racial concordance may also have implications for the messaging included in HPV vaccine recommendations. While quantitative analysis is useful for identifying predictors of vaccination, qualitative studies may help explain the vaccination decision-making process for adolescent males and their parents, and whether or not cultural norms play an important role. For example, in 2015, Merck and Co., Inc. released Gardasil 9®, an HPV vaccine that protects against nine different HPV strains known to cause cancer and genital warts.[119] Researchers conducted online focus groups with 87 parents of daughters to examine parent perceptions of this new vaccine.[120] They found that parents remained hesitant of the “newness” of such vaccines, while others proposed delaying vaccination so their children would receive a “superior” vaccine. Parental concerns about vaccine safety continue to challenge HPV vaccine uptake. As a result, parents believe providers should exhibit more confidence when recommending HPV vaccines.[120] Identifying specific parental concerns and perspectives through focus groups and in-depth interviews, particularly for minorities, will help shape provider messaging around new versions of HPV vaccines in the future. Qualitative research would ...
Recommendations for Future Research. Although our intervention was effective, there are always improvements we could make. One improvement that could be made is making sure that the groups were more homogeneous. The ability level of the students was more variant then we would have liked. While they all had similar gaps some students were better decoders than others, and that made it difficult to increase the accuracy of those students that needed it. Also along those lines, it would be better to do multiple groups and use the whole class. Our focus was ELL students who live in poverty which encompasses most of the students in the intervention experts class. However, this intervention would be beneficial for all students, not just ELL students. Since there were limited number of weeks we chose to do a small sample size of the class, but this limited our options for grouping appropriately and getting more accurate data for the effectiveness of the intervention. This intervention is something that all students would benefit from especially when it comes to reading with prosody. By using the whole class and grouping students more appropriately, the intervention would be more effective, and students would benefit from the process and gain confidence in their literacy skills. In further studies, it would be very beneficial to teach students about how to perform in front of other students. Students in first grade do not get a lot of experience with standing up and speaking in front of the class presenting something. Many students were nervous and spoke in a lower voice. They held their script in front of their face, and they stuttered over their words even though they were able to read accurately and with prosody with their partners throughout the week. Although the intervention expert tried to correct some of these issues during the intervention process, there was not enough time to model and completely support the students with their performance readings. The performance adds a different element to the repeated readings and asks students to get out of their comfort zone, with more time performing the students would do better and become more comfortable with the process, and some of these problems would eliminate themselves. Another recommendation for future research would be to add a question to the survey about Reader’s Theater. The point of the reading survey was to determine students’ motivation and understanding of reading and while there was important information about the participant’s engag...
