    The study aimed to determine improvements in knowledge and skills for addressing adolescent health issues by comparing survey results from nurses 12 years apart. While the samples were moderate in size, comparisons of knowledge lacked objective measurement and the sample sizes differed between studies. The study acknowledges a lack of knowledge among nurses regarding adolescent care but does not evaluate progress in education on topics like sexual orientation.

    A national Needs
    Assessment of Nurses Providing Healthcare to Adolescents. Journal of
    Professional Nursing, 22, (5), 304-313.

    The purpose of the study was to determine any improvement of knowledge and skills to
    for addressing health issues of in adolescents and to assessdetermine their the change in
    interest in receiving training for adolescent’s health issues by comparing the resultsit with
    a previous assessment. The period between the studies wasdifferences between the
    studies were 12 years, and the. The authors argue that there is athe lack of knowledge
    concerning the care ofwhen caring for adolescents. They accessed the original data to
    compare the similarity of group participants. The sample size wasThe differences of
    participants were 75, being those participants of the recent study. While the samples were
    of moderate size, the problem lies infor the comparisons of knowledge and skills. These –
    these comparisons of knowledge are subjective because there was no type of instrument
    measurement used that could have actually determined the knowledge of the participants.
    Instead, only a The survey was used to analyze the difference between the two periods
    times. Also, the sample sizes were not the same for the two studies, and this affects
    theThis apparently is not consistent in the collection of data because of the for it lacks
    equality in the inequal number of participants. The study does not indicate any
    difference in which gender was more involved in the study. Also, it does not point out
    Not to pointed out either it says where whether these participants come from a rural zone
    or urban zone nor does neither it say if there is any difference among them in nationality
    or point of originof nationalism. The moral standards of the participants seem not to be
    affecting when this study was conducted. The study does not reflect In the study shows
    no any hard choices about how to care for adolescents, and instead its only addresses
    talks about the knowledge and skills of the participants on the topiccaring for adolescents.
    The audience to which the study is directed to is to the community of health care
    professionals and it uses a clear and appropriate language and is understandable. It
    emploies appropriate references to the literature supporting their thesis, and It uses
    enough medium that supports their consent. Uses uses and identifies these resources
    correctly, but. However, since it is being the case that these two studies areitself this
    study is of a decade apart there have been additional resources that have become
    available is some of their resources since 1981 taking into account that this report was
    written in 2006, making this makes a difference of 15 years. The authors use many
    references to verifycheck their points according to the response achieved through the
    survey. The author acknowledges that there is a gap of knowledge and preparation among
    nurses about the health of adolescents. The aAuthors’ main concernconcerned is the care,
    skill and type of treatment that is giving to the adolescents, especially to the ones that are
    from a certain sexual status or preferences., whish I would note that there has not been
    any discernable no type of progress to in the education of this type even though we had
    have grown to be more open minded or toand we hear more about this topic. It The study
    stressed that the majority of the participants has have a great handlingindicate that they
    have done well in provding education in their offices on sexual transmission and sexual
    education but in contrast that there is not such progress on managingit does not manage
    advice concerning sexuality of their sexualism or advice of theon HIV/AIDS.
    The study has merit, but the power of the study needs to increase by obtaining a greater
    exemplary size.
