TY - CHAP M1 - Book, Section TI - Management of Quantitative Data A1 - Portney, Leslie G. PY - 2020 T2 - Foundations of Clinical Research: Applications to Evidence-Based Practice, 4e AB - An important part of the research planning process is the development of a data management plan that specifies how data will be recorded, organized, and analyzed. This plan begins with the research proposal, specifying the research question, hypotheses, and design. These plans will also translate to the data analysis section under methods in a research report. It is not unusual for these plans to change once the project is under way, but nothing should begin without a firm plan in place. This planning requires knowledge of statistical programs, data coding and format requirements. The purpose of this appendix is to describe the process of data management. SPSS will be used to illustrate the process, consistent with the presentation of statistical output throughout the text. SN - PB - F. A.
