What's in a Name? Revisiting Pilot Studies in Nursing Education Research.
Journal of Nursing Education 2018 August 2
Pilot studies are a commonly described type of study in the nursing education literature. Although nursing education researchers continue to label small, single-site, hypothesis-driven studies as pilot studies, the consensus in other fields as to what constitutes a pilot study has changed over time to focus more narrowly on issues of feasibility and acceptability of study interventions and interactions. Nursing education researchers are encouraged to adopt more modern definitions of pilot studies that substantially reduce (or eliminate) the focus on inferential statistical testing while increasing the focus on practical and procedural aspects of study design and implementation. This article highlights the historical evolution of the term pilot study and provides researchers with suggestions about the purpose and focus of pilot studies that support development of the science of nursing education.
