Item Beyond Data Capture: Using REDCap™ to Facilitate Web-Based Therapeutic Intervention Research(Wolters Kluwer, 2019-05) Crane, Stacey; Comer, Robert Skipworth; Arenson, Andrew D.; Draucker, Claire; School of NursingBackground Limited guidelines to assist nurse researchers who use web-based interventions are available. Nurses must develop the supporting technology enabling participants to complete study activities and collected data while maintaining data security and participant confidentiality. Objectives To describe how the authors used advanced Research Electronic Data Capture (REDCapTM) functionality to support the data management infrastructure of an interactive, web-based therapeutic intervention. Methods The data management infrastructure for the WISER intervention pilot study consisted of two components: a website for presentation of the intervention and participant account management and a REDCap project for data capture and storage. REDCap application programming interface (API) connected these two components using HTML links and data exchanges. Results We completed an initial pilot study of WISER with 14 participants using the REDCap-based infrastructure. Minimal technical difficulties were encountered. Discussion REDCap is cost-effective, readily available, and through its advanced functionality is able to facilitate confidential, secure interactions with participants, robust data management, and seamless participant progression in web-based intervention research.Item Postdoctoral Opportunities for Nursing PhD Graduates: A Resource Guide(Sage, 2019-03) Lor, Maichou; Oyesanya, Tolu; Chen, Chen X.; Cherwin, Catherine; Moon, Chooza; School of NursingBefore completing a nursing PhD program, doctoral students are encouraged to seek out and apply for a position in one of many, often highly competitive postdoctoral programs. These programs include the more traditional National Institutes of Health (NIH) funded experiences, such as the T32, as well as the nontraditional institution funded positions, including the associate faculty role. Graduates often need guidance on which postdoctoral programs are available, the resources each program offers to promote development of the applicant’s program of research, the disadvantages of each program, and what each program uses as benchmarks for success. This article summarizes both traditional and nontraditional postdoctoral positions including the T32, F32, F99/K00, T90/R90, research supplements, associate faculty, research associate, and hospital-affiliated postdoctoral positions. This article updates previous papers describing postdoctoral opportunities and offers a starting place to aide PhD students planning their postgraduate activities in seeking and evaluating these positions.
