Does the Faye Abdella Nursing Theory contribute to the discipline of nursing and if so in what specific way? What are the implications of the implementation of the
theory for nursing?
The paper needs to be focused on these two questions, it is a group assignment. Only focus on the 2 question above. I have included the instructions for the entire
group to give you a broad understanding. I have also included a paper submitted on the Theory as well.
Critique of Faye Abdellah Nursing Theory
Activity D
Group Project
Synthesis of One Fundamental Theory Applicable to Nursing
Purpose of the Assignment
The purpose of this activity is to provide the students with the opportunity to develop the ability to describe, analyze, and evaluate all aspects of a theory
applicable to advanced practice nursing. This is a group assignment: Maximum four students per group.
Directions
1. Select a theory applicable to advanced practice nursing. (Use a theory discussed in McEwen and Wills unless approved by the professor). Must not be one of
theories used during class.
2. In an 8-10 page paper (not including title page, abstract, body, and references) Describe, analyze and evaluate the theory.
a. The theory description includes the purpose, scope and origins of the theory as well as the major concepts, assumptions and theoretical propositions.
b. The theory analysis (or internal criticism/validity) includes whether the concepts and statements are theoretically and operationally defined and consistent.
Discuss the linkages; are they complete? Is the theory logically organized? Is there a model and if so does it clarify the theory? Are outcomes stated of predicted?
c. The theory evaluation (or external criticism/validity) includes whether the theory is congruent with current nursing standards, interventions or therapeutics.
Has it been tested empirically and/or supported by research? Does it appear to be accurate/valid? Is there evidence of use by advanced practice nurses? Is the theory
socially and/or cross-culturally relevant? Does it contribute to the discipline of nursing and if so, in what specific way? What are the implications of the
implementation of the theory for nursing?

3. Include a reference list of 15-20 citations. References should include original citations of the theory, as well as comments about recent revisions and
evaluations about its use in the discipline.
4. For every day a paper is turned in after the due date 10% will be deduct
