Dоctоrаl Quаlifying Exаminatiоn Bria Ferera (U62782167) Summer 2026 Day 3 (Research) Please read the following scenario and respond to each of the 10 questions below it. As part of a large, multi-year grant, researchers in school psychology, pediatrics, and early childhood, along with caregivers and community partners have come together to initiate a program of research that would have 2 broad goals that would be accomplished over a five-year period: Goal 1: Explore caregivers’ experience of parenting a child with food allergies and investigate how these experiences may affect caregiver quality of life, family functioning, and child cognitive and socioemotional development. As part of this goal, there is interest in exploring potential mediators and moderators that may shape the relationships between caregiver experiences and both parent and child outcomes. Goal 2: Use the information from the exploratory phase of the research (Goal 1) to inform the development, refinement, and preliminary evaluation of intervention(s) designed to support caregivers of children with food allergies. As part of this Goal 2 study, a pilot study would be proposed to assess the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of the intervention(s) in improving targeted parent and child outcomes. You have been hired as a research consultant to work with this group from school psychology, pediatrics, and early childhood, along with caregivers and community partners to plan this multi-study research. Different approaches for conducting this research have been suggested. These approaches include the use of (1) qualitative methods involving case studies, focus groups, ethnographic studies, etc.; (2) survey designs that use questionnaires (e.g., online) along with existing databases and multivariate analyses; (3) experimental designs (e.g., randomized controlled trial) involving group and/or single subject designs, and (4) mixed-methods approaches; and (5) systematic reviews of the literature. For each goal (Goal 1 and Goal 2): Identify 1-2 question(s) that will drive the study for the goal. Keep in mind that the researchers have expressed an interest in potential mediator and moderator variables relevant to children’s allergies, caregiver experiences, and both parent and child outcomes. Discuss the theoretical, policy, practical, or methodological significance of the question(s) for the goal. Identify the general research approach(s) (see above) selected for the study for the goal and describe your rationale for the selection of this approach. Identify the important variables that are central to the study for the goal. Describe what data you will collect, how you will collect the data, how you will evaluate data quality for the study (e.g., validity, reliability, fairness/bias) Describe the sampling strategy you will use and why this strategy is appropriate. What are the sampling units? What sample size have you selected? How did you arrive at this sample size? Describe the procedures for data analysis that you will use. Identify the elements from your data analysis that will be used to answer your research question(s). What cautions will you advise your reader to keep in mind? Discuss any ethical issues that might arise in the study. Discuss any plan you have for disseminating the results of the study and for increasing the chances that the research results will be used.
