The purpose of this article is to reintroduce and describe the processes and phases of heuristic inquiry and to illustrate how the method can advance nursing science. Heuristic inquiry is a rigorous, systematic, phenomenologically orientated research method developed by Clark Moustakas for investigating, discovering, and understanding the nature and meaning of living experiences. Heuristic inquiry invites the inclusion of the researcher's autobiographical living of experience being investigated honoring the personal experiences of the phenomenon from self and each participant in the research study. The author proposes that heuristic inquiry be used in nursing science by including a theoretical interpretive process connecting the thematic essences of the nursing conceptual framework guiding the study. Nursing theory-guided heuristic research advances the study of caring for persons experiencing human-environmental-health transitions to enhance human betterment and wellbecoming.
本文旨在重新介绍和描述启发式探究的过程和阶段,并说明该方法如何推进护理科学。启发式探究是一种严谨、系统、现象学导向的研究方法,由 Clark Moustakas 开发,用于调查、发现和理解生活体验的本质和意义。启发式探究邀请研究人员自传式地参与正在研究的经验,尊重研究中自我和每个参与者的个人经验。作者提出,通过包括一个理论解释过程,将护理概念框架的主题本质与研究联系起来,将启发式探究应用于护理科学。护理理论指导的启发式研究推进了对经历人类-环境-健康转变的人的关怀研究,以增强人类的改善和幸福。
