Assignment 2: Nursing Theory Analysis Paper
Overview/Description:
The purpose of this assignment is to describe, evaluate and
discuss application of a nursing grand or mid-range theory. This
assignment also provides the learner an opportunity to connect
theory and research to nursing phenomena. Learners will develop an
8 page paper (excluding the title page and references) using APA
style to address the elements listed below.
Theory/Author Name and Background
1. Select a Grand or Mid-Range Theory that is appropriate to
your practice setting.
2. Describe the theorist’s background in detail and discuss
how their experiences have impacted the theory development.
3. Examine crucial references for the original and/or current
work of the theorist and other authors writing about the selected
theory.
4. Identify the phenomenon of concern or problems addressed
by the theory.
Theory Description
1. Explain whether the theory uses deductive, inductive or
retroductive reasoning. Provide evidence to support your
conclusion.
2. Describe the major concepts of the theory. ? How are they
defined? (theoretically and/or operationally) Is the author
consistent in the use of the concepts and other terms in the
theory?
3. Interpret how the concepts are defined. ? Implicitly or
explicitly?
4. Examine the relationships (propositions) among the major
concepts.
Evaluation
1. Identify explicit and implicit assumptions
(values/beliefs) underlying the theory. On what assumptions does
the theory build?
2. Examine if the theory has a description of the four
concepts of the nursing metaparadigm. If so, how are they explained
in the theory? If the metaparadigm is not explained, what elements
do you see as relevant to the theory and why?
3. Discuss the clarity of the theory. ? Did it have lucidness
and consistency?
Application
1. Examine how the theory would guide nursing actions.
2. Describe specifically how you can use this theory in your
area of nursing (Practice, Education, or Administration).
