2. In essay format, critically evaluate the reliability and validity of the chosen tool in relation to a specific clinical context and population. The essay should include

  • A brief description of your own clinical context and patient population.
  • With reference to validation literature critically discuss the elements of reliability and validity of your chosen assessment tool. A minimum of three primary research articles must be included (you should include a brief justification for your choice of articles, eg. Publication date, research setting, aim of paper). Any review or meta-analysis articles should be retained for the intro or discussion section. Additionally, for this work it is permissible to include limited older literature as the original validation study may be the most comprehensive. Where possible, select more recent studies and studies specific to your own patient population.
  • Draw a conclusion about the usefulness of the assessment tool for your clinical practice.
  • Please refer to the marking criteria and resources on the eLearning site when preparing this assessment.
