This paper will discuss some recent concerns about research in the area of the professional self-concept of nurses, and trace the development of the literature on professional self-concept of nurses over the last 14 years.
Professional self-concept or how nurses feel about themselves as nurses is vital in examining current and future nursing practice and education, as it affects patient care.
The essence of the paper is the identification of three streams of literature: (1) which has 'emerged from the development of the Professional Self-Concept of Nurses instrument'; (2) literature which fails to consider recent or current research in the area; and (3) 'well-conducted work in the topic area'. The implications for nurses, educators and students are presented.
本文将讨论近期有关护士职业自我概念领域研究的一些问题,并追溯过去14年中关于护士职业自我概念的文献发展情况。
职业自我概念,即护士如何看待自己作为护士的身份,对于审视当前及未来的护理实践与教育至关重要,因为它会影响患者护理。
本文的核心是识别三类文献:(1)“源自护士职业自我概念工具的发展”;(2)未考虑该领域近期或当前研究的文献;(3)“该主题领域的高质量研究”。文中还阐述了对护士、教育工作者和学生的启示。
