Nursing Assessment01:29

Nursing Assessment

8.9K
The two sources for collecting information are primary and secondary. After gathering information, interpretation and validation help to complete the data. The purpose of assessment is to establish data with the initial information, to interpret data about the patient's perceived needs and health problems, and to respond to these problems identified.
The nurse collects all aspects of the patient's health in the initial assessment, establishing priorities for ongoing focused assessments...

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching I: Assessment and Diagnosis

2.3K
The nursing process provides a clinical decision-making framework for patients and families to establish and implement a personalized care plan. Since part of the nurse's duties is to teach patients, the steps of the nursing process are the most effective way to approach instruction. The nursing process and the teaching-learning process are inextricably linked.
It is critical to determine the patient's learning needs during the assessment. Determination of learning needs compounds data...

Theory of Attribution II: Kelley's Covariation Theory

437
Attribution theory plays a crucial role in social psychology, helping to explain how individuals interpret the causes of behavior. One prominent model within this field is Harold Kelley's covariation theory, which provides a systematic approach to determining whether internal traits or external circumstances drive a person's actions. The model posits that individuals rely on three key types of information—consensus, consistency, and distinctiveness—to make these judgments.Consensus:...

Theoretical Approaches to Psychological Disorder01:29

Theoretical Approaches to Psychological Disorder

612
The development of psychological disorders, which are characterized by deviant, maladaptive, and personally distressing behaviors, has been explored through several theoretical approaches.
Biological approach
The biological approach posits that internal, organic factors are the primary causes of such disorders. This perspective emphasizes brain structure and function, genetic predispositions, and neurotransmitter imbalances. For example, schizophrenia has been associated with both genetic...

Lazarus's Cognitive Appraisal Theory01:20

Lazarus's Cognitive Appraisal Theory

1.6K
Cognitive psychologist Richard Lazarus proposed the cognitive-mediational theory of emotions, which emphasizes how individuals' assessments of stressors significantly affect their experience of stress. According to Lazarus, the stress response is determined by a two-step appraisal process: primary appraisal and secondary appraisal. These cognitive appraisals help individuals evaluate the potential impact of a stressor and determine the adequacy of their coping resources.
Primary Appraisal:...

Humanistic Psychology01:24

Humanistic Psychology

2.3K
Humanistic psychology emerged in the mid-20th century as a response to the deterministic and pessimistic nature of behaviorism and psychoanalysis. While behaviorism focused on observable behaviors influenced by the environment and psychoanalysis delved into unconscious motivations, both theories suggested that human actions lacked free will. In contrast, humanistic psychology offers a perspective that emphasizes the innate potential for goodness and growth within every individual.
This approach...

Area of Science:

  • Educational Psychology
  • Learning Sciences

Background:

  • Programmatic assessment (PA) is gaining traction in education for optimizing learning.
  • The theoretical foundations of PA require clearer articulation for effective implementation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the theoretical perspectives underpinning PA.
  • To examine how learning theories can guide the development of effective PA programs and address implementation challenges.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review and synthesis of relevant learning theories.
  • Analysis of how these theories align with PA principles.

Main Results:

  • Constructivist theories support meaning-making and longitudinality in PA.
  • Cognitivist theories inform continuous feedback processes.
  • Instructional design, Self-Determination Theory (SDT), Self-Regulated Learning (SRL), and deliberate practice underpin student agency and accountability in PA.

Conclusions:

  • Connecting PA principles with learning theories enables educators to refine assessment practices.
  • This theoretical linkage facilitates the development and successful implementation of PA programs.
