Using the nursing theory you selected in the Week 4 Collaboration Cafe, consider how the following components would be included in an analysis of that theory:
- Origin of the theory
- Meaning of the theory
- Logical adequacy of the theory
- Usefulness of the theory
- Generalizability of the theory
- Degree of parsimony within the theory
- Testability of the theory
What rationale can you provide which validates the selected theory as a framework for nursing practice? Be sure to include scholarly references to support your discussion.
The theory used last week was INTERPERSONAL THEORY OF RELATION BY HILDEGARD PEPLAU
