    Area of Science:

    • Nursing Research
    • Theoretical Frameworks
    • Methodological Approaches

    Background:

    • Theory triangulation is underutilized in nursing literature.
    • A lack of robust theoretical grounding has limited the impact of empirical data on certain nursing problems.
    • Existing empirical data on nurses' attitudes toward AIDS care is extensive but lacks cohesive theoretical direction.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To demonstrate the utility of theory triangulation in nursing research.
    • To provide a framework for organizing and clarifying inconsistent findings in nursing research.
    • To guide future research by exploring linkages between theories.

    Main Methods:

    • Triangulation of two nursing theories.
    • Application to the problem of nurses' attitudes about AIDS care.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Exploration of interdisciplinary mid-range theories.

    • Main Results:

    • Theory triangulation can enlarge research questions and guide data collection and analysis.
    • It facilitates a rational and coherent approach to study clustering.
    • The example illustrates how linking mid-range theories can address questions beyond the scope of a single theory.

    Conclusions:

    • Theory triangulation is a valuable strategy for reviewing literature and designing research.
    • It enhances the organization and interpretation of empirical data.
    • It supports the development of more comprehensive and integrated nursing knowledge.
