CRITERION 1: THE INTRODUCTION • It is important that you read and reference Greenwood (2000) and Reed (2006) (see unit essential readings) to enable you to understand what is meant by and how to apply the major terms: • Theory • Espoused Theory • Theories in Use • Theory practice gap. • Please see Unit vUWS site re access to these essential readings. • Greenwood, J. (2000). Nursing Theories. An introduction to their development and application. In J. Greenwood (Ed.), Nursing theory in Australia: Development and application (2nd ed.) (pp. 1-19). Frenchs Forrest NSW: Pearson Education Australia. • Reed, P. G. (2006). The dialogue within nursing theory-guided practice: a frontier of knowledge development. Nursing Science Quarterly, 19 (4), 328- 333. • In the INTRODUCTION: • Introduce the topic. • Define the major terms and describe how they will be applied in the paper • Provide overview of what the paper will cover • Thesis statement: State the aim of the paper Criteria 2 –Discussion of one major theoretical perspective currently guiding own nursing practice, including why this perspective was chosen and how it guides and impacts on own nursing practice Criterion 2 – Discussion (continued) Discussion of one major theoretical perspective currently guiding own nursing practice, including why this perspective was chosen and how it guides and impacts on own nursing practice Criterion 2 requires discussion of espoused theory. Espoused theories: the theories /conceptual models that people claim they hold and guide their practice. “ When someone is asked how he would behave under certain circumstances the answer he usually gives is his espoused theory of action for that situation . This is the theory of action to which he gives allegiance and which upon request he can communicate to others” ( Argyris & Schon, 1974, pp.6-7) “ The concepts underpinning theories or models of nursing and the nursing process approach to care are components of the espoused theories of nursing theorists and academics – that is, the theories they claim to hold (Argyris and Schon, 1974)…therefore, they are also the espoused theories of nursing undergraduates and graduates. They are acquired consciously” (Greenwood, 2000, p. 7). Criteria 2 – Discussion (continued) Discussion of one major theoretical perspective currently guiding own nursing practice, including why this perspective was chosen and how it guides and impacts on own nursing practice This criteria requires that you discuss your espoused theory of nursing practice. Ensure you address this criteria (see Learning Guide and Marking Criteria) by • Identifying your own current area and level of nursing practice. • Discussing ONE major theory or theoretical perspective (such as nursing theory ) and how, where and why you apply it in your nursing practice and with what impact on your nursing practice. • For example: • If you are a clinical nurse educator you may be using Benner’s Novice to Expert theory to guide your practice in educating, mentoring and preceptoring nursing staff in the organization. • If you are practicing as a registered nurse in the mental health nursing context you may be using Peplau’s Theory of Interpersonal Relations. • If your nursing practice area is Medical Surgical Nursing and your level of practice is as a beginning nurse practitioner your espoused theory of nursing that you may claim mainly guides your practice is Orem’s Self Care Deficit Theory, or Kolcaba’s Comfort theory. Criteria 3: Discusses own personal theory of nursing, including own beliefs and values in relation to the concepts of health, nursing, person and environment and the relationships between these two concepts. • Argyris and Schon (1974) claim people have mental maps which guide their way to act in situations. (Theories in Use) and these strongly guide they way they actually act more than the formal theories and conceptual models that they espouse guide their practice. • People are not generally aware of their own personal theories of nursing . • Criteria 3 requires you to discuss your own personal nursing theory-in-use. • Identify, describe and discuss how you define and what you mean by the 4 concepts: Health: Person; Nursing: Environment and how these impact, influence and guide influence your nursing practice and the quality of the nursing care you give. • Discuss what your beliefs and values are that underpin how you view, define, give meaning to the concepts of Person, Health, Nursing and environment. That is, how they are the basis or the underpinnings of your own nursing theory-in-use, and impact on your nursing practice. • When presenting your own reflections and ideas in relation to your own personal theory of nursing, it is appropriate to use the first person; however, elsewhere use of the third person and referencing of all sources is required. Including in this section if you refer to another person’s ideas, words, etc. (See also designated style manual and Turnitin Report). Criteria 4: Discuss how your personal theory-in-use developed and how it impacts on your own actual nursing practice. • Discuss how you came to develop how you define, view and give meaning to the concepts of Person, Health, Nursing, Environment. That is discuss how your nursing theory-in-use developed. • For example, did your concept of nursing develop from being nursed, seeing a family member being nursed, watching nurses in their practice, from your family, peers, other? How did this influence the development of the concept and how you nurse others in practice. How does it guide your practice and impact on the quality of your nursing practice. • When presenting your own reflections and ideas in relation to your own personal theory of nursing, it is appropriate to use the first person; however, elsewhere use of the third person and referencing of all sources is required. Criteria 5 With particular reference to the current literature discuss the importance and applicability of theory guided nursing practice in general and to own nursing practice in particular. • You are required to have at least five (5) recent (i.e. from 2012) references from peer-reviewed academic journals, preferably from nursing journals. All sources of information must be adequately acknowledged by correct and complete referencing.

There must be clear identification and evidence of understanding of major issues, with evidence of critical examination of issues, including sound arguments and positions adequately supported by academic literature as appropriate and required.
