Question: Introduction: The introduction substantively presents all the following elements:

• Identifies the role of concept analysis within theory development.

• Identifies the selected nursing concept.

• Identifies the nursing theory that addresses the selected concept.

• Names the sections of the paper.

• Scholarly support is required.

Definition/Explanation of the selected nursing concept

This section includes:

• Defines/explains the concept using scholarly literature (a dictionary maybe used for this section ONLY, and additional scholarly nursing references are required).

• A substantive discussion of this section with support from nursing literature is required.

Literature review

This section requires:

• A substantive discussion of at least 3 (three) scholarly nursing literature sources on the selected concept.

• Themes, ideas, and/or facts about the concept found in the reviewed sources are presented in an organized fashion.

• Support from nursing literature is required. Please Note: Primary research articles about the selected nursing concept are the most useful resource for the literature review.

Defining attributes, for this section:

• A minimum of THREE (3) attributes are required.

• A substantive discussion of this section with support from nursing literature is required

Explanation: An attribute identifies characteristics of a concept. For this situation, the characteristics of the selected nursing concept are identified and discussed.

Antecedent and Consequence

This section requires the identification of:

• 1 antecedent of the selected nursing concept.

• 1 consequence of the selected nursing concept.

• A substantive discussion of the element with support from nursing literature is required.

Explanation: An antecedent is an identifiable occurrence that precedes an event. In this situation, an antecedent precedes a selected nursing concept. A consequence follows or is the result of an event. In this situation a consequence follows or is the result of the selected nursing concept.

Empirical Referents

This section requires the identification of:

• 2 (two) empirical referents of the selected nursing concept.

• A substantive discussion of the element with support from nursing literature is required.

Explanation: An empirical referent is an objective ways to measure or determine the presence of the selected nursing concept.

Construct Cases

Explanation: hypothetical or real-life situations demonstrating the use or absence of the concept.

This section requires the creation of a model case, borderline case, and contrary case.

1. 1 Model Case is created by the student and discussed substantively by demonstrating within the case each of the following areas:

• Definition

• All identified attributes

Explanation: A model case is an example of a hypothetical or real-life situation that demonstrates all of the attributes noted previously in this assignment.

• 1 Borderline Case is created by the student in which one or two of the previously identified attributes are missing.

• 1 Contrary Case is created by the student that demonstrates the opposite of the selected nursing concepts. All identified attributes of the concept are absent in this cas

• Explanation: Borderline case is a created case where one or two of the previously identified attributes are missing. Contrary case is a created case that demonstrate the complete opposite of the selected nursing concept - all identified attributes are missing.

1. Theoretical Applications of the Concept

• Discuss the purpose of a concept analysis in relationship to theory.

• Explain how the concept applies to the selected nursing theory.

• A substantive discussion of the element with support from nursing literature is required.

2. Conclusion

This section requires:

1. Summarization of key information regarding:

• Selected nursing concept.

• Selected nursing theory.

• Application of concept analysis findings to advanced practice nursing (specific to selected specialty track professional role and/or area of practice).

2. The concluding statements include self-reflection on the new knowledge gained from conducting a concept analysis. (Self-reflection may be written in first-person.)
