This is the first book to clearly and fully demonstrate the
process of using theory to guide nursing research and professional
practice. It describes a step-by-step format for evaluating nursing
theory's applicability to research, a format that links theory
(both middle-range and grand theory) to research on a wide range of
clinical populations and care delivery systems. The book describes
how theory analysis models are used to examine various nursing
phenomena as they relate to nursing research and professional
practice, and provides key examples of how this is
accomplished.
The book takes the reader through the process of using a theory
to guide research from inception of a research question to
evaluation of future research. International experts in
theory-related nursing research describe twelve theories that have
previously been applied to research and practice and six theories
that can be applied to future research and practice. Using a
consistent analytic framework, each chapter applies a specific
theory (from either nursing, psychology, sociology, or management)
to a particular clinical population or care delivery issue. These
encompass clinical, administrative, and educational nursing
settings. The consistent format facilitates ease of comparison
across different theories. Generous use of figures and tables
further demonstrates the complex relationships between and among
concepts embedded in the theories.
Key Features: Demonstrates a systematic format for evaluating
middle-range and grand nursing theory's applicability to research
Links theory to clinical practice at patient population and care
delivery levels Provides a useful template for students of nursing
disciplinary knowledge development Presents the scholarship of
international researchers of theory-related nursing Includes
theories from nursing, psychology, sociology, and management
