PREFACE

Rare is the student who enrolls in a nursing program and is excited about the requirement of taking a course on theory. Indeed, many fail to see theory’s relevance to the real world of nursing practice and often have difficulty applying the information in later courses and in their research. This book is the result of the frustration felt by a group of nursing instructors who met a number of years ago to adopt a textbook for a theory course. Indeed, because of student complaints and faculty dissatisfaction, we were changing textbooks yet again. A fairly lengthy discussion arose in which we concluded that the available books did not meet the needs of our students or course faculty. We were determined to write a book that was a general overview of theory per se, stressing how it is—and should be—used by nurses to improve practice, research, education, and management/leadership.

As in past editions, an ongoing review of trends in nursing theory and nursing science has shown an increasing emphasis on middle range theory, evidence-based practice (EBP), and situation-specific theories. To remain current and timely, in this fifth edition, we have added a new chapter entitled “Ethical Theories and Principles,” presenting information on these topics and describing how they relate to theory in nursing. We have also included new middle range and situation-specific nursing theories as well as new “shared” theories from non-nursing disciplines. One notable addition is a significant section discussing Complexity Science and Complex Adaptive Systems in Chapter 13 (Theories From the Sociologic Sciences) helping to explain their importance to nursing. Updates and application examples have been added throughout the discussions on the various theories.

Organization of the Text Theoretical Basis for Nursing is designed to be a basic nursing theory textbook that includes the essential information students need to understand and apply theory in practice, research, education, and administration/management.

The book is divided into four units. Unit I, Introduction to Theory, provides the background needed to understand what theory is and how it is used in nursing. It outlines tools and techniques used to develop, analyze, and evaluate theory so that it can be used in nursing practice, research, administration and management, and education. In this unit, we have provided a balanced view of “hot” topics (e.g., philosophical world views and utilization of shared or borrowed theory). Also, rather than espousing one strategy for activities such as concept development and theory evaluation, we have included a variety of strategies.

Unit II, Nursing Theories, focuses largely on the grand nursing theories and begins with a chapter describing their historical development. This unit divides the grand nursing theories into three groups based on their focus (human needs, interactive process, and unitary process). The works of many of the grand theorists are briefly summarized in Chapters 7, 8, and 9. Because this volume is intended to serve as a broad foundation, these analyses provide the reader with enough information to understand the basis of the work and to whet the reader’s appetite to select one or more for further study rather than delving into significant detail.

Chapters 10 and 11 cover the significant topic of middle range nursing theory. Chapter 10 presents a detailed overview of the origins and growth of middle range theory in nursing and gives numerous examples of how middle range theories have been developed by nurses. Chapter 11 provides an overview of some of the growing number of middle range nursing theories. The theories presented include some of the most commonly used middle range nursing theories (e.g., Pender’s Health Promotion Model and Leininger’s Culture Care Diversity and Universality Theory) as well as some that are less well known but have a growing body of research support (e.g., Meleis’s Transitions Theory, the Theory of Unpleasant Symptoms, and the

11

Uncertainty in Illness Theory). The intent is to provide a broad range of middle range theories to familiarize the reader with examples and to encourage them to search for others appropriate to their practice or research. Ultimately, it is hoped that readers will be challenged to develop new theories that can be used by nurses.

Chapter 12, which discusses EBP, explains and defines the idea/process of EBP and describes how it relates to nursing theory and application of theory in nursing practice and research. The chapter concludes with a short presentation and review of five different EBP models that have been widely used by nurses and are well supported in the literature.

Unit III, Shared Theories Used by Nurses, is rather unique in nursing literature. Our book acknowledges that “shared” or “borrowed” theories are essential to nursing and negates the idea that the use of shared theory in practice or research is detrimental. In this unit, we have identified some of the most significant theories that have been developed outside of the discipline of nursing but are continually used in nursing. We have organized these theories based on broad disciplines: theories from the sociologic sciences, behavioral sciences, biomedical sciences, and philosophy as well as from administration, management, and learning. Each of these chapters was written by a nurse with both educational and practical experience in his or her respective area. These theories are presented with sufficient information to allow the reader to understand the theories and to recognize those that might be appropriate for his or her own work. These chapters also provide original references and give examples of how the concepts, theories, and models described have been used by other nurses.

Chapter 16, new to the fifth edition, describes ethical theories and principles that apply to nursing practice. This addition was suggested by nursing faculty who recognized the importance of maintaining an ethical perspective within the very complex health care system. This information is vital to professional nursing practice and absolutely essential for nurses in advanced practice, management, or educational roles.

Finally, Unit IV, Application of Theory in Nursing, explains how theories are applied in nursing. Separate chapters cover nursing practice, nursing research, nursing administration and management, and nursing education. These chapters include many specific examples for the application of theory and are intended to be a practical guide for theory use. The heightened development of practice theories and EBP guidelines are critical to theory application in nursing today, so these areas have been expanded. The unit concludes with a chapter that discusses some of the future issues in theory within the discipline.

Key Features In addition to numerous tables and boxes that highlight and summarize important information, Theoretical Basis for Nursing contains case studies, learning activities, exemplars, and illustrations that help students visualize various concepts. New to this edition is a special boxed feature in most chapters that highlights how a topic is outlined in the American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN’s) The Essentials of Master’s Education in Nursing or The Essentials of Doctoral Education for Advanced Nursing Practice. Other key features include:

■ Link to Practice: All chapters include at least one “Link to Practice” box, which presents useful information or clinically related examples related to the subject being discussed. The intent is to give additional tools or resources that can be used by nurses to apply the content in their own practice or research.

■ Case Studies: At the end of Chapter 1 and the beginning of Chapters 2 to 23, case studies help the reader understand how the content in the chapter relates to the everyday experience of the nurse, whether in practice, research, or other aspects of nursing.

■ Learning Activities: At the end of each chapter, learning activities pose critical thinking questions, propose individual and group projects related to topics covered in the chapter, and stimulate classroom discussion.

■ Exemplars: In five chapters, an exemplar discusses a scholarly study from the perspectives of concept analysis (Chapter 3); theory development (Chapter 4); theory analysis and evaluation (Chapter 5); middle range theory development (Chapter 10); and theory generation via research, theory testing via research, and use of a theory as the conceptual framework for a research study (Chapter 20).

■ Illustrations: Diagrams and models are included throughout the book to help the reader better

12

understand the many different theories presented.

New to This Edition ■ New Chapter 16, Ethical Theories and Principles ■ Detailed section on Complexity Science and Complex Adaptive Systems in Chapter 13. ■ More detailed explanation of EBP, situation-specific theories, and their relationship to theory in nursing ■ Numerous recent examples of application of theories in nursing practice, nursing research,

leadership/administration, and education ■ Enhanced instructional support, focusing on activities and information directed toward online learning

Student Resources Available on ■ Literature Assessment Activity provides an interactive tool featuring journal articles along with

critical thinking questions that will encourage students to engage with the literature. Students can print or e-mail their responses to their instructor.

■ Case Studies with applicable questions guide students in understanding how the various theories link to nursing practice.

■ Learning Objectives for each chapter help focus the student on outcomes. ■ Internet Resources provide live web links to pertinent sites so that students can further their study and

understanding of the various theories. ■ Journal Articles for each chapter offer opportunities to gain more knowledge and understanding of the

chapter content.

Instructor Resources Available on ■ Instructor’s Guide includes application-level discussion questions and classroom/online activities that

Melanie McEwen uses in her own teaching! ■ Strategies for Effective Teaching of Nursing Theory provide ideas for instructors to help make the

nursing theory class come alive. ■ Test Generator Questions provide multiple-choice questions that can be used for testing general

content knowledge. ■ PowerPoints with audience response (Iclicker) questions, based on the ones used by Melanie

McEwen in her own classroom, help highlight important points to enhance the classroom experience. ■ Case Studies with questions, answers, and related activities offer opportunities for instructors to make

the student case studies an exciting, fun, and rewarding classroom/online experience. ■ Image Bank provides images from the text that instructors can use to enhance their own presentations.

In summary, the focus of this learning package is on the application of theory rather than on the study, analysis, and critique of grand theorists or a presentation of a specific aspect of theory (e.g., construction or evaluation). It is hoped that practicing nurses, nurse researchers, and nursing scholars, as well as graduate students and theory instructors, will use this book and its accompanying resources to gain a better understanding and appreciation of theory.
