  • Developmental Psychology
  • Nursing Science

Background:

  • The life-span development framework has been established in social sciences since the 1970s.
  • Nursing has yet to fully embrace this theoretical and methodological framework.
  • This framework offers a unique perspective on human development across the entire lifespan.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To advocate for the adoption and utilization of the life-span development framework within the discipline of nursing.
  • To highlight the framework's potential to enrich nursing research methodologies.
  • To underscore the framework's applicability to both individual and family-level nursing studies.

Main Methods:

  • Conceptual analysis of the life-span development framework.
