摘要:

In a two-part series, a proposal for research which integrales practical, technical, and political judgment is presented. Such research is called 8–4 research and is opposed to psetidotechnical research. 8–4 research is discussed as an advance over more current nursing research preoccupations. In Part I it is proposed that nursing research should be considered in terms of payoff not merely promise for nursing, that 8–4 research is a suitable paradigm for all nursing research, and that nursing research is a suitable preoccupation for any and all nursing personnel. In Part II eight points of encounter—as between 8–4 research and pseudotechnical research—pertinent to designing nursing research are given. A conception of design is proposed that displays the role of conation, drive, or intent in any designed research.

摘要:

Research for any practice profession necessarily deals with professional arts and skills, with the base of knowledge underlying the practice field, and with the initial and continuing education of the professional. Recent developments and activities in the above areas are discussed, including growth in the investigator pool and studies that deal with the process and outcomes of nursing care.

摘要:

To discover if psychiatric patients who received follow-up care in the home by public health nurses could assume a functional role in the family and in the community to a greater extent than similar patients who did not receive home care, a sample of all chronic undifferentiated and paranoid schizophrenics who had been released from a Georgia mental hospital within a one-year period and who were receiving follow-up care in the home by the public health nurse was selected from County A and matched according to diagnosis, time released from the hospital, age, sex, race, income, education, and marital status as closely as possible with a sample of patients from County B who were not receiving such follow-up care. Eight pairs of patients were interviewed and rated according to the Psychiatric Status Schedule; six pairs of patients were rated on a questionnaire by a significant member of the family as to the amount of burden they imposed on the family. The rate of patients readmitted to the hospital was also calculated for each sample group and compared. No statistically significant differences were found in the readmission rate, functioning level in the family and the community, or burden on the family.

摘要:

Prenatal patients (chosen because the staff wished to know the patients' attitudes toward their care and because on the health-illness continuum they were well and not dependent on staff for their daily needs) were asked to evaluate their obstetric care by means of a questionnaire and an interview. Of 191 questionnaires distributed in the obstetric clinic of a large university medical center, 79 completed forms were returned and 39 interviews were done, using the format of the questionnaires, the interviews were conducted from the clinic by a person not on the clinic staff. Overall results showed no significant difference in patient responses between interview or questionnaire. The study revealed that the patients generally were satisfied with their care but that certain areas needed improvement.

摘要:

Eighty senior nursing students at the University of San Francisco (USF) were divided at random into four groups of 20. Two groups were pretested on their knowledge of acupuncture and Chinese medicine. One week later a 50-minute class in acupuncture and Chinese medicine was given in a community health class to one of the two pretested groups and one of the two untested groups. Following the class, the test was given to all four groups. Using the Solomon Four-Group design to measure effects of pretesting and the class content, significant differences were found between the groups on questions seeking differences, to confirm the first hypothesis that an increase in knowledge about acupuncture and Chinese medicine will accompany an increase in its acceptance as a healing tool and the desire to learn more about it. A t-test on the results of pre- and posttests confirmed the second hypothesis that there will be no difference between groups in history or maturation from one week to the next.
