Nursing science and development of the profession of nursing relies on this process to expand the understanding of what nursing is and what nursing does. The purpose of this assignment is to explore how a theorist explicates their philosophy and thoughts and then develops their theory based on testing and use in practice. An evaluation of the theory will make clear its usefulness to nursing practice, leadership, and\/or education.<\/p>\n<p>Directions<\/p>\n<p>In this assignment, you are going to explore how a nurse theorist of your choice created their theory. You will become the theorist immersing yourself in the writings from the earliest mentioned to the most current literature. Writing in the voice of the theorist (taking on the persona of the theorist), you will create the theory through the following four stages.<\/p>\n<p>In the first stage, theorizing occurs. This is where you, as the theorist, identify the concepts of what nursing is and is not. Perhaps you questioned what concepts were guiding those in nursing practice and then started to question your role. You started asking yourself, \u201cWhere am I in nursing, and where the profession is going? Is there some overarching understanding that guides the professional in his or her practice?\u201d This is where you recognize that a theory is needed.<\/p>\n<p>In the second stage, syntax is developed. This is where you will define the terms, explain relationships between the terms, and examine their expansion. Syntax development is an evolution. Consider, for example, Jean Watson. She starts by defining the word \u201ccaring.\u201d Within the last several years, she has refined her terminology changing the term caring to caritas and identified the relationships between terms. This demonstrates a growth and maturation from decades of research she and other scholars did to produce the theory of caring.<\/p>\n<p>The third stage is theory testing. Here, the theorists and other researchers consider whether this theory helps answer questions that arise in nursing. This is where your theory is used by a widening group of researchers. For example, graduate nursing students request to use the tool you developed while testing your theory in an area of nursing.<\/p>\n<p>The fourth and last stage is evaluation. This is where the theory is used in practice with the goal of improving healthcare. It is evidenced in the development of policies, procedures and best practice standards that have evolved from theory implementation.<\/p>\n<p>Assignment Details<\/p>\n<p>Begin your paper with an introductory paragraph that describes why you chose this theorist. First person voice (I, me, etc.) is acceptable in this paper.<br \/>\nWrite in the first person voice (I, me, our, etc.) as the theorist. For example: I, Dr. Jean Watson, found that caring was a core concept of how I viewed nursing. To me, caring is the essence of nursing.<br \/>\nUse the four stages (theorizing, syntax, theory testing, and evaluation) to explain how your theory was developed and used in nursing.<br \/>\nIn the first (theorizing) stage, provide the historical context that influenced the theorist\u2019s thinking.<br \/>\nIn the second (syntax) stage, describe the development of the concepts and statements.<br \/>\nIn the third (theory testing), provide two (2) examples of research examining the theory.<br \/>\nIn the fourth (evaluation), provide three (3) examples of how the theory has been used in practice and a brief evaluation of the theory.<br \/>\nConsult the Grading Rubric for this Assignment found in the course resources for further detailed expectations.<br \/>\nAssignment Requirements<\/p>\n<p>Page requirements are a minimum of four (4) pages with no more than six (6) pages of content, not including the title and reference pages.<br \/>\nIt is expected that you have a minimum of five (5) sources of support.<br \/>\nUtilize spelling and grammar check to minimize errors.<br \/>\nYour writing Assignment should:<br \/>\nfollow the conventions of Standard English (correct grammar, punctuation, etc.);<br \/>\nbe well ordered, logical, and unified, as well as original and insightful;<br \/>\ndisplay superior content, organization, style, and mechanics; and<br \/>\nuse APA 7th Edition for format and style.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>need work as detail of rubric need follow intructions apa 7 need it im fail in this criteria role family nurse practitioner follow the stage!!! on intructions detail pleasee Introduction Theories are constructed and developed by nursing theorists to describe and explain phenomena in nursing.
