The module about integrated research in public health (PH) has reviewed in further depth the two branches of research described as the positivist (quantitative) and interpretivism (qualitative).

qualitative research in relation to the research process. It will demonstrate an understanding of the process of data collection and analysis in quantitative and qualitative research. Use informatics in conducting a literature search. Lastly it will conduct an analysis of a research report which uses a quantitative, qualitative or mixed approach (Classroom 2017).

For the researchers, the fact that there are over 250,000 adults over age 50 in the system (a vulnerable population), 40% of which are estimated to have mental health issues and in one study, 70% of adults reported at least one traumatic experience during their life, is human rights issue. Due to the minimal research on this population in prisons
Mixed effects regression model Mixed-effects modeling is basically a regression technique which allows two kinds of effects: fixed effects (meaning just as in ordinary regression, intercepts and slopes intended to describe the population as a whole) and random effects (means the slopes and intercepts that can vary across subgroups of the sample). These models are useful in a wide variety of disciplines in the medical, biological and behavioral sciences. They are particularly useful in settings where

Those with extrinsic religiosity view attending spiritual functions as a cultural norm. Intrinsic spirituality measures
