Wilsonian methods of concept analysis--that is, the method proposed by Wilson and Wilson-derived methods in nursing (as described by Walker and Avant; Chinn and Kramer [Jacobs]; Schwartz-Barcott and Kim; and Rodgers)--are discussed and compared in this article. The evolution and modifications of Wilson's method in nursing are described and research that has used these methods, assessed. The transformation of Wilson's method is traced as each author has adopted his techniques and attempted to modify the method to correct for limitations. We suggest that these adaptations and modifications ultimately erode Wilson's method. Further, the Wilson-derived methods have been overly simplified and used by nurse researchers in a prescriptive manner, and the results often do not serve the purpose of expanding nursing knowledge. We conclude that, considering the significance of concept development for the nursing profession, the development of new methods and a means for evaluating conceptual inquiry must be given priority.
本文讨论并比较了威尔森概念分析法——即威尔森提出的方法以及护理学中由威尔森方法衍生而来的方法(如沃克和阿凡特、钦和克莱默[雅各布斯]、施瓦茨 - 巴科特和金、罗杰斯所描述的方法)。阐述了威尔森方法在护理学中的演变与修正,并对运用这些方法的研究进行了评估。随着每位作者采用其技术并试图对该方法进行修正以弥补局限性,追踪了威尔森方法的转变。我们认为这些调整和修正最终削弱了威尔森方法。此外,由威尔森方法衍生而来的方法被护理研究人员过度简化并以规定性方式使用,其结果往往无助于扩展护理知识。我们得出结论,鉴于概念发展对护理专业的重要性,必须优先开发新方法以及评估概念探究的手段。
