What is its      purpose, how is it conducted, and what information does it gather?

Also, as you search the Walden library and credible      sources, consider what the literature discusses regarding the validity,      reliability, sensitivity, specificity, predictive values, ethical      dilemmas, and controversies related to the test or tool.

If you are assigned Assignment Option 2 (Child),      consider what health issues and risks may be relevant to the child in the      health example.

Based on the risks you identified, consider what       further information you would need to gain a full understanding of the       child’s health. Think about how you could gather this information in a       sensitive fashion.

Consider how you could encourage parents or caregivers       to be proactive toward the child’s health.
