Writing the theoretical rationale for a study can be a daunting prospect for novice researchers. Nursing's conceptual models provide excellent frameworks for placement of study variables, but moving from the very abstract concepts of the nursing model to the less abstract concepts of the study variables is difficult. Similar to the five-paragraph essay used by writing teachers to assist beginning writers to construct a logical thesis, the authors of this column present guidelines that beginners can follow to construct their theoretical rationale. This guide can be used with any nursing conceptual model but Neuman's model was chosen here as the exemplar.
对于新手研究者来说,撰写研究的理论依据可能是一项艰巨的任务。护理的概念模型为研究变量的定位提供了出色的框架,但从护理模型非常抽象的概念转向研究变量不太抽象的概念却很困难。类似于写作教师用来帮助初学者构建合乎逻辑的论点的五段式文章,本专栏的作者提出了初学者可以遵循的准则来构建他们的理论依据。本指南可与任何护理概念模型一起使用,但此处选择纽曼模型作为范例。
