TL;DR: The culmination of concept inventing is the ingenuous proclamation expressed in a scientific statement and an artform; this culmination goes beyond what was called synthetic definitions in earlier renditions of Parse’s (1997, 2006) concept invention.
Abstract: Concept inventing was created by Parse (1997, 2006) as an all-at-once nonlinear rational-intuitive moment-to-moment birthing of novel conceptualizations. It is in direct contrast to the predominant methods of concept analysis, which follow a linear format with a focus on the particulate (for example, Rodgers & Knafl’s, 2000, evolutionary method; Walker & Avant’s, 2011, traditional method; and others). Concept inventing arose as an alternative to these methods, offering scholars who study with the humanbecoming paradigm a unique way to advance nursing knowledge of universal humanuniverse living experiences (Parse, 2014). For example, concept inventing is preliminary to initiating a humanbecoming investigation with the two humanbecoming modes of inquiry—Parsesciencing and Humanbecoming Hermeneutic Sciencing. It leads the discussion in the horizon of inquiry and is further elaborated in the foreknowings as scholars engage with what is known and believed about a concept. Concept inventing is a way of creatively conceptualizing novel ideas. Seasoned and aspiring scholars possess personal wisdom with untapped knowings about humanuniverse living experiences. With concept inventing scholars are invited to plumb the depths of their knowings to create unique descriptions of concepts, known as ingenuous proclamations. The term ingenuous means genuine, open, and penetrable. The term proclamation means declaration or clear expression. The ingenuous proclamation is an assertion that incarnates the meaning of the concept for the scholar. Ingenuous proclamations are declared in the language of humanbecoming science and with relevant artforms. The culmination of concept inventing is the ingenuous proclamation expressed in a scientific statement and an artform; this culmination goes beyond what was called synthetic definitions in earlier renditions of Parse’s (1997, 2006) concept inventing. New conceptualizations with words and artforms cocreate new meaning incarnating the unfolding nature of a concept.

TL;DR: Having clear information about the steps involved in developing a concept analysis will make it easier for educators to incorporate it into their graduate nursing curriculum and to effectively guide students on their journey through this process.
Abstract: Aim To provide guidance to educators who use the Wilson (1963) concept analysis method, as modified by Walker and Avant (2011), in their graduate nursing curriculum BACKGROUND: While graduate nursing curricula often include a concept analysis assignment, there is a paucity of literature to assist educators in guiding students through this challenging process. Design This article details one way for educators to assist graduate nursing students in learning how to undertake each step of the Wilson (1963) concept analysis method, as modified by Walker and Avant (2011). Data source Wilson (1963) concept analysis method, as modified by Walker and Avant (2011). Results Using examples, this article walks the reader through the Walker and Avant (2011) concept analysis process and addresses those issues commonly encountered by educators during this process. Conclusion This article presented one way of walking students through a Walker and Avant (2011) concept analysis. Having clear information about the steps involved in developing a concept analysis will make it easier for educators to incorporate it into their graduate nursing curriculum and to effectively guide students on their journey through this process.

TL;DR: Cultural humility was used in a variety of contexts from individuals having ethnic and racial differences, to differences in sexual preference, social status, interprofessional roles, to health care provider/patient relationships.
Abstract: Diversity is being increasingly recognized as an area of emphasis in health care. The term cultural humility is used frequently but society's understanding of the term is unclear. The aim of this article was to provide a concept analysis and a current definition for the term cultural humility. Cultural humility was used in a variety of contexts from individuals having ethnic and racial differences, to differences in sexual preference, social status, interprofessional roles, to health care provider/patient relationships. The attributes were openness, self-awareness, egoless, supportive interactions, and self-reflection and critique. The antecedents were diversity and power imbalance. The consequences were mutual empowerment, partnerships, respect, optimal care, and lifelong learning. Cultural humility was described as a lifelong process. With a firm understanding of the term, individuals and communities will be better equipped to understand and accomplish an inclusive environment with mutual benefit and optimal care.

TL;DR: A constructivist definition of cultural competence that stems from the conclusions of an extensive critical review of the literature on the concepts of culture, cultural competence, and cultural safety among nurses and other health professionals is proposed.
Abstract: In nursing education, most of the current teaching practices perpetuate an essentialist perspective of culture and make it imperative to refresh the concept of cultural competence in nursing The purpose of this article is to propose a constructivist definition of cultural competence that stems from the conclusions of an extensive critical review of the literature on the concepts of culture, cultural competence, and cultural safety among nurses and other health professionals The proposed constructivist definition is situated in the unitary-transformative paradigm in nursing as defined by Newman and colleagues It makes the connection between the field of competency-based education and the nursing discipline Cultural competence in a constructivist paradigm that is oriented toward critical, reflective practice can help us develop knowledge about the role of nurses in reducing health inequalities and lead to a comprehensive ethical reflection about the social mandate of health care professionals

TL;DR: Seven core attributes of moral courage were identified: true presence, moral integrity, responsibility, honesty, advocacy, commitment and perseverance, and personal risk.
Abstract: Background:Nursing as an ethical practice requires courage to be moral, taking tough stands for what is right, and living by one’s moral values. Nurses need moral courage in all areas and at all levels of nursing. Along with new interest in virtue ethics in healthcare, interest in moral courage as a virtue and a valued element of human morality has increased. Nevertheless, what the concept of moral courage means in nursing contexts remains ambiguous.Objective:This article is an analysis of the concept of moral courage in nursing.Design:Rodgers’ evolutionary method of concept analysis provided the framework to conduct the analysis.Data sources:The literature search was carried out in September 2015 in six databases: PubMed, CINAHL, Scopus, Web of Science, PsycINFO, and The Philosopher’s Index. The following key words were used: “moral” OR “ethical” AND “courage” OR “strength” AND “nurs*” with no time limit. After applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, 31 studies were included in the final analysis.Ethi...

TL;DR: It is shown that IT services may especially contribute to empowerment by providing knowledge, and the components of empowerment could be used to develop IT services for cancer survivors.
Abstract: Background: Patient empowerment may be an effective approach to strengthen the role of cancer survivors and to reduce the burden on health care. However, it is not well conceptualized, notably in oncology. Furthermore, it is unclear to what extent information technology (IT) services can contribute to empowerment of cancer survivors. Objective: We aim to define the conceptual components of patient empowerment of chronic disease patients, especially cancer survivors, and to explore the contribution of existing and new IT services to promote empowerment. Methods: Electronic databases were searched to identify theoretical and empirical articles regarding empowerment. We extracted and synthesized conceptual components of patient empowerment (ie, attributes, antecedents, and consequences) according to the integrated review methodology. We identified recent IT services for cancer survivors by examining systematic reviews and a proposed inventory of new services, and we related their features and effects to the identified components of empowerment. Results: Based on 26 articles, we identified five main attributes of patient empowerment: (1) being autonomous and respected, (2) having knowledge, (3) having psychosocial and behavioral skills, (4) perceiving support from community, family, and friends, and (5) perceiving oneself to be useful. The latter two were specific for the cancer setting. Systematic reviews of IT services and our additional inventory helped us identify five main categories: (1) educational services, including electronic survivorship care plan services, (2) patient-to-patient services, (3) electronic patient-reported outcome (ePRO) services, (4) multicomponent services, and (5) portal services. Potential impact on empowerment included knowledge enhancement and, to a lesser extent, enhancing autonomy and skills. Newly developed services offer promising and exciting opportunities to empower cancer survivors, for instance, by providing tailored advice for supportive or follow-up care based on patients' input. Conclusions: We identified five main components of empowerment and showed that IT services may especially contribute to empowerment by providing knowledge. The components of empowerment could be used to develop IT services for cancer survivors. It is important to take into account patients’ needs, follow up on these needs, and create a service that is attractive and easy to use. [J Med Internet Res 2015;17(11):e270]

TL;DR: The analysis showed that nursing professionalism is determined by three attributes of cognitive, attitudinal, and psychomotor, and the most important antecedents concepts were demographic, experiential, educational, environmental, and attitudinal factors.
Abstract: Background: Professionalism is an important feature of the professional jobs. Dynamic nature and the various interpretations of this term lead to multiple defi nitions of this concept. The aim of this paper is to identify the core attributes of the nursing professionalism. Materials and Methods: We followed Rodgers’ evolutionary method of concept analysis. Texts published in scientifi c databases about nursing professionalism between 1980 and 2011 were assessed. After applying the selection criteria, the fi nal sample consisting of 4 books and 213 articles was selected, examined, and analyzed in depth. Two experts checked the process of analysis and monitored and reviewed them. Results: The analysis showed that nursing professionalism is determined by three attributes of cognitive, attitudinal, and psychomotor. In addition, the most important antecedents concepts were demographic, experiential, educational, environmental, and attitudinal factors. Conclusion: Nursing professionalism is an inevitable, complex, varied, and dynamic process. In this study, the importance, scope, and concept of professionalism in nursing, the concept of a beginning for further research and development, and expanding the nursing knowledge are explained and clarifi ed.
