Components of evidence critical appraisal.

Components of evidence critical appraisal. How do I go about answering this assignment?

Based on the five systematic reviews (with or without meta-analysis) critically appraised by your group, your group evidence table provides key elements of appraisal for each of the individual studies.

Your assignment here is to provide an overall synthesis/summary of the evidence as a whole.

Please speak to the validity, reliability, and applicability of the body of evidence you have in from the individual critiques and the summary evidence table. In your response, think overall about the five studies as a whole, not as individual studies. You can give examples or cite data from a study or studies if desired as you write about validity, reliability, and applicability.
