1. You can choose the peer-reviewed articles to be appraised. You should ensure that the articles are related to your research topic.

3. The critical appraisal template worksheet template can be used to assess the articles. This template guides you through the process of answering questions to critically evaluate each article.
4. Fill in the evaluation template and answer each question.

2. Is the study designed appropriate to the research question?
3. Did the sample have enough size and was it representative of the target population
4. Did the data collection process prove to be reliable and appropriate?

8. Are there any strengths or weaknesses to the study?

Answering these questions about each article will allow you to form a critical evaluation of it and identify the best articles that are reliable.
