Nursing theory application

1. Select any one of the articles included in this course as supplemental references that provide examples of application of theory to practice to respond to the discussion topics. Identify the article you have selected and describe a situation in your nursing practice where the use of this theory may be appropriate.

2. If you were to use this theory as a basis for a research study, what are some of the questions that this theory would help you to answer? (Remember that research questions are asked as open-ended questions rather than questions that can be answered with a simple “yes” or “no”). How did you arrive at these questions?

****Discuss some of the specific things in your population of interest (group of patients) that you would need to consider- be specific. (Look at Figure 3-1 in the Good chapter- might be helpful).

**** Discuss how the assumptions and propositions assisted you in the above exercise. Be specific, by citing examples.

***When you respond to two of the your classmates’ postings, consider the following in your response:

****Did you learn or see something new about the theory itself of the use of theory from the postings, or were there more questions or confusion created for you about “applying” the theory?

*****Were the questions or situations presented consistent with the theory?

****Did you think the theory was used appropriately? If not, then explain why, and what should have been done. ( in order to answer this, think about what parts of the theory that you would look at or examine that will assist you to determine this? Hint: think about you did in critiquing the theory…e.g. looking at the assumptions, propositions, etc.).
