  • Extends previous findings
  • Provides new findings

E - Ethical

Examples

Poor Question: "Does stress affect health?"

Better Question: "Does chronic work-related stress increase cardiovascular disease risk in middle-aged adults?"

  • Specific population, exposure, outcome

Best Question: "Among adults aged 40-60 with high job strain (Karasek Job Content Questionnaire score >24), does a 12-week mindfulness-based stress reduction intervention reduce systolic blood pressure compared to usual care?"

  • PICO format: Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome
  • Measurable variables
  • Specific timeframe
