Assignment:
Instructions
Find and synthesize evidence that supports potential interventions to mitigate the negative effect of the organizational challenge you identified as the focus of a prospective doctoral capstone project. Then, substantiate the applicability of the interventions to the organization, populations served, or both. In addition, substantiate the efficacy of the improvement intervention you think is the best candidate for a capstone project.
Requirements
The assignment requirements, outlined below, correspond to the scoring guide criteria, so be sure to address each main point. Read the performance-level descriptions for each criterion to see how your work will be assessed. In addition, note the additional requirements for document format, length, and supporting evidence.

Summarize the significance of the identified challenge and need for improvement.
Briefly describe your search strategy and methods.
Include total search results, results by search term, and both inclusion and exclusion criteria results.
Synthesize research evidence to support potential improvement interventions for one organizational challenge.
