Since Peplau outlined her perceptions of psychiatric/mental health nursing in (1952) interpersonal relationships has been considered by many as the core of practice. In the intervening period of almost a half century many researchers and theorists have endeavoured to develop and integrate Peplau's framework into day-to-day nursing activity. However, more recently, as a result of the fusion between the professional nursing agenda and the wider political agenda, the importance of interpersonal relationships and the individuality of psychiatric/mental health nursing is being questioned. This questioning is represented in the debate about the aetiology of mental illness, the choice of research methods to determine treatment outcomes and by association the role and value of the psychiatric/mental health nurse. This paper will focus on the interpersonal nature of psychiatric/mental health nursing and explore possible research approaches aimed at explicating its core. Attention will be given to the necessity of using pluralistic methodology in order to do so.
自佩普劳在1952年概述了她对精神科/心理健康护理的看法以来，人际关系已被许多人视为护理实践的核心。在近半个世纪的这段时间里，许多研究者和理论家都致力于将佩普劳的框架发展并融入日常护理活动中。然而，最近，由于专业护理议程与更广泛的政治议程的融合，人际关系的重要性以及精神科/心理健康护理的独特性正受到质疑。这种质疑体现在关于精神疾病病因学的辩论、确定治疗结果的研究方法的选择以及由此关联的精神科/心理健康护士的角色和价值方面。本文将聚焦于精神科/心理健康护理的人际本质，并探索旨在阐明其核心的可能研究方法。为此将关注使用多元方法的必要性。
