This paper outlines a study, which provided a pilot for part of a larger research project, to investigate nurses' conceptualizations of caring. The report gives an overview of previous work related to defining the concept of care before outlining the study undertaken. A sample of nine qualified nurses was used and Kelly's repertory grid technique employed to elicit constructs within the concepts of caring attitudes and caring behaviours. Grid data were analysed using cluster analysis and nine common themes were identified. These themes were largely supportive of previous research studies. It is proposed that in developing a theory of care, a synthesis should occur between nurses' conceptualizations of the concept and their professional practice.
本文概述了一项研究，该研究为一个更大的研究项目的一部分提供了试点，旨在调查护士对关怀的概念化理解。报告在概述所进行的研究之前，先对先前与护理概念定义相关的工作进行了综述。研究采用了九名合格护士的样本，并运用凯利的 repertory 网格技术来引出关怀态度和关怀行为概念中的构念。使用聚类分析对网格数据进行了分析，确定了九个共同主题。这些主题在很大程度上支持了先前的研究。有人提出，在发展护理理论时，护士对该概念的概念化理解与其专业实践之间应进行综合。
