Callista Roy, one of nursing's leading theorists and creator of the widely used Roy Adaptation Model of Nursing, presents a unique pathway for developing knowledge for nursing practice. Her book distils the most relevant information from 200 published research studies to provide a roadmap for progressing from nursing research to middle-range theory to optimum practice regimens. It is based on tested knowledge, clear evidence, and refined caring perspectives.
Step by step, the text identifies and critiques research suited for developing cumulative knowledge for practice and uses the research to develop middle-range theories that apply across all health care settings. It then presents the evidence for practice for each middle range theory, refocuses EBP within nursing knowledge and within defined levels of readiness for practice, and recommends changes for practice based on evidence. Grounded in the Roy Adaptation Model of Nursing, the book provides a single conceptual basis for synthesis of research into middle range theories for use across all patient populations. It clarifies ways to select research from one conceptual basis to build middle-range theories, how to classify evidence for practice by levels of readiness, and recommend research-based changes in practice. The text includes quantitative and qualitative research designs and offers instruments to measure major concepts for implementation. Also included are plentiful examples, tables that display values across studies, definitions of major terms and concepts, and diagrams of concepts. Supplementing the text is a faculty guide for using the text to teach critical thinking at multiple graduate levels and videos illuminating each section of the book.
Key Features:
Explains clearly how middle-range theories grow from research
Designed for implementation in practice
Uses Roy's five core ""adaptation"" contexts as organising themes: coping, changing life events, loss, chronic health condition, and traumatic events
Constitutes a seminal work from a pre-eminent nursing theorist and educator
Includes faculty guide and videos elucidating each section of the book
Callista Roy, PhD, RN, FAAN, Professor, William F. Connell School of Nursing, Boston College, USA has been involved in nursing education for 46 years. Her numerous faculty appointments include positions at Mount St. Mary's College where she also served as Department Chair (1971-1982), at the University of Portland, Oregon where she helped to initiate a master's programme, and at the University of San Francisco. At the Connell School of Nursing, Dr. Roy was part of the team that initiated a PhD program in nursing that graduated 161 PhD alums in the first 21 years. Other visiting faculty appointments include La Sabana University, Columbia; University Autonoma de Nuevo Leon, Mexico; St. Mary's College, Kurume, Japan; University of Lund, Sweden; and University of Conception, Chile. Dr. Roy served on the Board of the International Network for Doctoral Education from 2003-2006. She is Faculty Senior Nurse Scientist at the Yvonne L. Munn Center for Nursing Research at Massachusetts General Hospital and was a Charter Member of the Nursing Research Study Section, DRG, and NIH. Dr. Roy is best known for developing the Roy Adaptation Model of Nursing and leadership for knowledge-based practice. She has lectured in 36 countries on 5 continents. As early as 1987, an estimated 10,000 nurses had studied in schools where the curricula used the Roy Adaptation Model and the impact of the model on practice continues as health care agencies use it in designing strategies for Magnet Status. Dr. Roy has 136 publications, eleven of which are books, and including Springer's Nursing Knowledge Development and Clinical Practice, with translations in 12 languages. Her published analysis of 163 studies based on the Roy Model provided a blueprint for theory-based scholarship in nursing.
