The first article “a child with type 1 diabetes is in your care” provides the researcher with information what should be done to those children. The purpose of this study is to determine what cases diabetes to children and also know what type of diabetes that can get children and how to prevent them. The sources of the data will be from those who take care children suffering from the disease. Also the information can be found from health cares where children go for medication. Collecting of data will be difficult because the interviewers are not the one who is affected and thus it is not easy to get valid information. The purpose of the study might differ with what outcome will be because the respondents might not provide relevant information. The validity of the study solely depends with the respondents and the research method which will be used. In this case we shall use qualitative method.
On the other hand, the article “type 1 diabetes in children” provides the researcher with information on what causes diabetes to children. Sources of information as per this article are from those who are affected with the disease. The purpose of the study is to get the number of children who are affected by diabetes and also determine what the possible solution for the disease is. The study will also provide information on how the disease occurs so that measures can be taken not to happen in future. Unlike the first article, this is a quantitative one because we are going to determine the number of children affected by the disease. Quantitative research method will be appropriate for this given study.
