Participatory decision making: issues and guidelines
Abstract:
The concept of shared responsibility in decision making through the use of participatory decision making has received considerable support in nursing education. There are important omissions in the discussions and applications of this concept. Problems in the use of participatory decision making as related to information transmission; conflict, consensus, and coalitions; and faculty/administrator role differences are analyzed. Criteria and guidelines for the appropriate use of participatory decision making are provided.
