Abstract

Abstract:

Objective This study aimed to develop a middle-range theory of adaptation to chronic illness derived from the Roy’s Model using a six-steps approach. Methods Based on an analysis of the Roy’s Model, methods of literature search, literature categorization,concepts synthesis,schema formation,statements illustration, and empirical evidence were adopted as operational strategies for theory development. Results This study generated a middle-range theory of adaptation to chronic illness to explain a nursing phenomenon of adaptation in chronic care. Core elements of the middle-range theory of adaptation to chronic illness were refined, namely stimuli,cognition and adaptation processing, physical function, self-concept, role function, interdependence, adaptation, and maladaptation,with observable variables. Besides,theory schema,statements, and empirical evidence were established. Conclusion Using reasonable strategies, this generated theory with good utility is expected to provide guidance of nursing research,education,and practice for chronic care.

摘要：

目的基于罗伊模式,在六步中域理论构建法的指导下,构建慢性病适应护理中域理论。方法在罗伊模式的基础上,通过检索文献、分类资料、归纳概念、形成图示、提出命题和建立实证证据,构建了慢性病适应护理中域理论。结果慢性病适应护理中域理论包括阐释慢性病适应现象;提炼刺激、认知适应过程、生理功能、自我概念、角色功能、互相依赖、适应/适应不良为核心概念并确立观察变量;建立了理论图示、理论命题和实证证据。结论基于罗伊模式慢性病适应护理中域理论的构建方法科学,实用性较好,为慢性病相关护理研究、教育和实践提供指导。
