摘要:
To ascertain whether touch, in the form of extra tactile stimulation, would result in more rapid physical and social development and a greater degree of social development of the premature infant, 48 minutes of extra tactile stimulation, defined as a gentle, nonrhythmic stroking of the greatest possible area of skin surface of the infant's body by the nurse's hand, was given to eight experimental group premature infants daily for a minimum of two weeks while they were confined to an isolette. Six infants formed a control group. Regain of birth weight was used to assess physical development. Scores on the applicable portions of the Gesell Development Schedule and Bayley Scales of Infant Development and plasma cortisol levels were used to measure rate and degree of social development. Data were analyzed in terms of the total group and for pairs of infants matched for geslalional age. birth weight, and Apgar score. No significant difference was found between control and experimental groups in rate of physical development as measured by regain of birth weight. Analysis of the relationship between weight gain and geslalional age, sex, and Apgar scores indicated that none was a substantial indicator of the rate at which infants gained weight while in the hospital. There was no significant difference in the degree of social development between experimental and control infants, but as hypothesized, there was significant difference in rate of social development. Plasma cortisol levels as an indication of the infant's adrenocorticol development as evidenced by his ability to respond to stressful situations, and hence indirectly his social development, revealed no significant difference between the two groups.

摘要:
When attitudes toward nursing interventions of 103 psychiatric inpatients studied over a 28-month period, in three different ward phases, were correlated with demographic, psychiatric, and psychologic test variables, attitudes varied primarily and almost exclusively with ward administrative phase. Within the differing ward phases the nursing interventions most valued by patients did not focus directly upon the individual patient.

摘要:
In an American Surses Foundation survey of the 1973 population of nurses with doctoral degrees (S = 1,020) general trends in doctoral education of nurses were elicited. Specific unique characteristics were highlighted, including: a continuing trend for nurses to earn the Ph.D. rather than the Ed.D., a divergence between field of doctoral study and the current field of research interest, and a slight number of these qualified nurses actually participating in research of any kind. The majority of subjects were single: most were employed in a university or college where they held either full or associate professorships; most considered themselves still to he in the field of nursing, although their doctoral studies frequently took them out of the discipline; their work responsibilities were heavily loaded with administrative duties. As compared with the holders of doctoral degrees in other fields, nurses earned their degrees later, but took no longer to complete them. While universities in the Mid-Atlantic states were the largest producers of nurse-doctorates, universities in the Midwest were found to be the most frequent employers. Questions regarding the future direction of nurse-doctorates were raised.

摘要:
When 261 medical and surgical patients at a community hospital were asked to rank order 49 events related to the experience of hospitalization from most to least stressful results indicated the subjects were capable and willing to order the events. Moreover, they showed a high degree of consensus as to how the events should be ordered. The rank order of these events provides a tool that can be used to quantify the measurement of psychosocial stress experienced by hospital patients.

摘要:
Scope, specificity, and interrelatedness of patient problem and nursing intervention statements on nursing care plans were studied in relation to the introduction into the nursing assessment process of an objective observation checklist and a nursing history form. Ninety nursing care plans from six inpatient units in a Veterans Administration hospital were studied over an 11-month period. Results indicated that significant increases in the numbers of both types of care plan statements occurred only following the introduction of the nursing history, as did the numbers of nursing interventions related to the identified patient problems. The degree of specificity among the problem statements increased, but nursing interventions tended to become less explicit. The scope or focus of both types of statements continued to be primarily physical in orientation. The findings also suggested that. since the care plans reflected less than half the patient problems identified on the nursing histories, care plan studies alone might not be appropriate for evaluating the breadth of nursing cure planning.

摘要:
Sixty nursing students were administered the Opinions about Mental Illness (OMI) scale. Students whose scores fell above the median on authoritarianism and social restrictiveness were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups. The experimental subjects' scores on authoritarianism and social restrictiveness decreased significantly (p < 001). whereas the control groups' scores on these two factors remained essentially the same.

摘要:
A methodology for measuring and predicting work load on nursing units utilizes perceptions of head nurses as measured by a specially designed questionnaire. The data were collected in a 300-bed short-term general hospital over a seven-week period. The results indicated that head nurses' perceptions of need on nursing units were predominantly influenced by unit census and available staff on the unit. Other patient load affecting variables, such as patient classification, number of new admissions, or postoperative patients, did not play a major role in shaping head nurses' perceptions.

摘要:
To compare the effectiveness of a patient-completed paner-and-pencil questionnaire with the nursing interview in obtaining the admission history. 30 patients newly admitted to a Veterans Administration hospital were asked to complete a questionnaire and were given the routine nursing interview. Data were compared for accuracy and nursing time required. The nurses made significantly more errors of omission in an unstructured interview than the patient made in completing the questionnaire (P < 001). The nurse spent cm average of 11.5 minutes on her interview while the investigator used an average of 0.9 minute to explain the reason for the questionnaire to the patient and obtain his consent to its completion. Study findings are discussed as a means of providing an accurate, systematic, recorded data base for planning nursing care.
