Question 1

theory of martha rogers

Answer 1

THEORY OF UNITARY HUMAN BEINGS

Question 2

2 dimensions / explain

Answer 2

1. the science of nursing
2. the art of nursing

Question 3

major concept:
A person is defined as an indivisible, pan-dimensional energy field identified by a pattern, and manifesting characteristics specific to the whole, and that can’t be predicted from knowledge of the parts. A person is also a unified whole, having its own distinct characteristics that can’t be viewed by looking at, describing, or summarizing the parts.

Answer 3

Human-unitary human beings

Question 4

as an expression of the life process. It is the characteristics and behavior coming from the mutual, simultaneous interaction of the human and environmental fields, and health and illness are part of the same continuum. The multiple events occurring during the life process show the extent to which a person is achieving

Answer 4

Health

Question 5

It is the study of unitary, irreducible, indivisible human and environmental fields: people and their world. Rogers claims that nursing exists to serve people, and the safe practice of nursing depends on the nature and amount of scientific nursing knowledge the nurse brings to his or her practice

Answer 5

Nursing

Question 6

Nursing aims to assist people in achieving their maximum health potential. Maintenance and promotion of health, prevention of disease, nursing diagnosis, intervention, and rehabilitation encompass the scope of nursing’s goals.

Answer 6

Scope of Nursing

Question 7

“An irreducible, indivisible, pandimensional energy field identified by pattern and integral with the human field.”

Answer 7

Environmental field

Question 8

the fundamental unit of both the living and the non-living. It provides a way to view people and the environment as irreducible wholes. The energy fields continuously vary in intensity, density, and extent.

Answer 8

Energy field

Question 9

There are no boundaries that stop energy flow between the human and environmental fields, which is the openness in Rogers’ theory. It refers to qualities exhibited by open systems; human beings and their environment are open systems.

Answer 9

openness

Question 10

is defined as “non-linear domain without spatial or temporal attributes.” The parameters that humans use in language to describe events are arbitrary, and the present is relative; there is no temporal ordering of lives.

Answer 10

pandimensionality

Question 11

is defined as the unique behavior of whole systems, unpredicted by any behaviors of their component functions taken separately.

Answer 11

synergy

Question 12

the distinguishing characteristic of an energy field seen as a single wave. It is an abstraction and gives identity to the field.

Answer 12

pattern

Question 13

The three principles of homeodynamics are

Answer 13

resonance, helicy, and integrality.

Question 14

Postulates the inseparability of man and environment and predicts that sequential changes in life process are continuous, probabilistic revisions occurring out of the interactions between man and environment.

Answer 14

Principle of Reciprocy

Question 15

This principle predicts that change in human behavior will be determined by the simultaneous interaction of the actual state of the human field and the actual state of the environmental field at any given point in space-time.

Answer 15

principle of synchrony

Question 16

Because of the inseparability of human beings and their environment, sequential changes in the life processes are continuous revisions occurring from the interactions between human beings and their environment.
Between the two entities, there is a constant mutual interaction and mutual change whereby simultaneous molding is taking place in both at the same time.

Answer 16

P of integrality

Question 17

It speaks to the nature of the change occurring between human and environmental fields. The life process in human beings is a symphony of rhythmical vibrations oscillating at various frequencies.
It is the identification of the human field and the environmental field by wave patterns manifesting continuous change from longer waves of lower frequency to shorter waves of higher frequency.

Answer 17

P of resonancy

Question 18

The human-environment field is a dynamic, open system in which change is continuous due to the constant interchange between the human and environment.
This change is also innovative. Because of constant interchange, an open system is never exactly the same at any two moments; rather, the system is continually new or different.

Answer 18

P of helicy

Question 19

nursing process (roger)(3)

Answer 19

assessment, voluntary mutual patterning, and evaluation.
