Concept analysis of relating: a human response pattern
1Department of Nursing, University of New Hampshire, Durham, USA.
Summary
This study analyzed "relating" within the NANDA framework, defining this human response pattern. This advances the development of nursing diagnoses and research-based practice.
Area of Science:
- Nursing
- Linguistics
- Taxonomy
Background:
- The study investigates "relating," one of nine human response patterns.
- These patterns form the conceptual basis for nursing diagnoses.
- NANDA (North American Nursing Diagnosis Association) developed these patterns.
Purpose of the Study:
- To conduct a formal linguistic analysis of the nine human response patterns.
- To support the exploration, definition, and development of research-based nursing practice.
- To advance the NANDA framework for nursing diagnoses.
Main Methods:
- Concept analysis of "relating."
- Examination of historical foundations of the concept of relating.
- Analysis of the use of "relating" in nursing and other disciplines.
Main Results:
- Conceptual and operational definitions for "relating" were established.
- The study provides a foundation for further development of nursing's taxonomic tree.
- The efficacy of using the nine human response patterns is supported.
Conclusions:
- Concept analysis of "relating" yielded clear definitions.
- The development of nursing's taxonomic tree based on human response patterns is feasible and beneficial.
- This work supports evidence-based nursing practice through refined diagnostic classification.
