Evaluating and Applying Care Research

This subject introduces key principles for critical evaluation of the evidence supporting various contemplative practices in professional settings. The subject examines different types of evidence, different methods of evaluation and the ways in which practices based on varying types of evidence may be similar or different. Students will also develop an appreciation for how variation in settings, intended outcomes, and intervention components can influence care design and wellbeing outcomes. This subject will equip students with the research literacy required to design, apply, and evaluate contemplative practices within various settings to enhance wellbeing and resilience.
