RE: valid and unbiased

Being Unbiased is being fair and not likely to support a particular person or group involved in something. Unbiased in other words are basically being fair, objective, or just, about a situation or thing. In term of journal article an unbiased article is the type that the author is not being supportive of a particular person or group. When a researcher uses multiple people to code the data, allowing others to review findings, have the participants review the result doing this makes the research unbiased. “It is important that the process of research dissemination occurs in an unbiased manner through an effective system of peer review” (Parmar et al., 2019).

Validity is defined by Benova et al., (2020) “as the level of scientific robustness of an indicator with respect to how well it captures a phenomenon or concept of interest”. “More focus on this work was on the overall meaning of validity which was further elaborated as the extend to which an indicator correctly measures an underlying maternal and newborn health phenomenon” (Benova et al., 2020).

Disparities in access to healthcare services is a topic that has once again been in the spotlight in light of the current pandemic. Some of this disparity can be attributed to cultural beliefs and stereotypes. This is particularly true in the case of African American women who have been cited as the group least likely to seek out services for mental health concerns and illnesses (Ward, Clark & Heidrich, 2009). The article I chose was “African American Women’s Beliefs, Coping Behaviors, and Barriers to Seeking Mental Health Services,” a qualitative study which examines how African American culture and self-perception itself can serve as a barrier to treatment for mental health.

I found this article using the Walden University library and searched through SAGE Journals. I found the database easy to use and did a few different searches using specific keywords with no issues. I think others in this course may find this database useful as it has many peer-reviewed articles specifically related to nursing, psychology and education along with other subjects. The database can be browsed by discipline, has the option to view the most read and most cited articles, as well as other resources.

The article I have selected for this week’s discussion is titled “Pregnancy and postpartum psychiatric episodes in fathers: A population-based study on treatment incidence and prevalence”. In my path to becoming a psychiatric nurse practitioner, we will be learning about different mental health conditions and postpartum depression is among them. When we talk about postpartum depression, this mainly refers to the mother. This peer-reviewed article has a different perspective on the topic of postpartum depression, which is the father. Throughout the pregnancy, and even postpartum, the attention is focused on the mother and the baby. It’s important that we also talk about the father and acknowledge how they are feeling and their emotions. Men may manifest different signs of depression. They may not cry but feel angry and irritable (Horsager-Boehrer, 2021). Postpartum depression is real and it’s important to know that there is help available to both the mother and the father.

I did not experience any difficulty while searching for this article. The Walden University Library is convenient and easy to use. This database would be useful to my colleagues because they provide peer-reviewed articles that have been checked for importance and accuracy in the field interest of your choice. I would also recommend this database because it is offered by the university for students and is a reliable source.

Hi Jim and class, “I did not experience any difficulty while searching for this article. The Walden University Library is convenient and easy to use. This database would be useful to my colleagues because they provide peer-reviewed articles that have been checked for importance and accuracy in the field interest of their choice”.

Please review the above information – suppose you wish to access a full text article – the journal is not included in Walden’s database. How might you secure the article?

I lok forward to your ideas – thanks, Dr. Forrest

Hi Jim. I found your article to be an excellent read. I know several fathers who have suffered from postpartum depression, and they all emphasized that they felt angry and irritable, as you described. Fathers feel stressed in their everyday lives, balancing work and coping with their parental role (Johansson et al., 2020). Becoming a father is as rewarding as it is challenging. It can be hard to cope once a child is born, especially for first-time fathers.

I also agree with you on the easiness of finding peer-reviewed articles through the Walden University Library. The Walden University Library (n.d) provides a list of databases for research. I used CINAHL PLUS to find articles for my initial post and my response to your post with ease.

Peer-reviewed article

Johnson, S., & Lucas-Thompson, R. (2021). Health Effects of COVID-19 for Vulnerable Adolescents in a Randomized Controlled Trial. School Psychology, 36(5), 293–302.

As a psych RN that has worked with adults and adolescents over the last couple of years, I noticed a dramatic increase in the number of adolescent patients admitted at the hospital I worked at. In the facility where I worked, we went from 20 adolescent inpatient beds to 50 inpatient beds in less than a year after the pandemic. I was interested in research that showed the mental and behavioral health effects of COVID-19 on the adolescent population.

Database used

I searched for this article by going to the Walden Library database EBSCO. I accessed it from my Walden homepage, where I clicked on the “Academics” link and selected the “Walden Library” link. In the EBSCO database, I was able to select the topic of “mental and behavioral health” and include the search words “adolescents” and “COVID-19 pandemic.” I selected full texts and was able to narrow my search down to peer-reviewed articles. The database narrowed down my search to about 1,171 articles and I selected this article because there was a full pdf version available for it. This was a fairly easy process; I did not have difficulty finding this article and working through this database. I would highly recommend this database to my peers because it is customizable to what you would want to search for and also has access to pdf versions that can be downloaded. The database also has a tools section, which gives many options such as emailing the link of the article, to exporting it, and a cite section for the article
