Q

describes the unpredictable, nonlinear evolution of energy fields as seen in non-repeating rhythmicities and postulates an ordering of the human evolutionary emergency

A

helicy

22

covers the mutual, continuous relationship of the human and environmental fields

A

integrality

23
Q

In Roger’s Theory of Unitary Human Beings, a Person is defined as

A

an indivisible, pandimensional energy field identified by pattern

24
Q

Rogers define the environment as an

A

irreducible, pandimentional energy field identified by pattern and integral with the human field

25
Q

Rogers define Health as

A

an expression of the life process.

26
Q

The nursing theory states that nursing encompasses two dimensions:

A

nursing as art and nursing as science

27
Q

nusing is an organized body of knowledge specific to nursing, and arrived at by scientific research and logical analysis

A

science perspective

28
Q

is the creative use of science to better people and the creative use of its knowledge is the art of its practice

A

art of nursing

28
Q

the nursing process has 3 steps in Roger’s Theory of Unitary Human Beings:

A

assessment, voluntary mutual patterning, and evaluation

29
Q

the areas of assessment are:

A
  • the total pattern of events at any given point in space-time, - simultaneous states of the patient and his or her environment
  • rhythms of the life process
  • supplementary data
  • categorical disease identities
  • subsystem pathology
  • pattern appraisal
30
Q

mutual patterning of the human and environmental fields include;

A
  • sharing knowledge
  • offering choices
  • empowering the patient
  • fostering patterning
  • evaluation
  • repeat pattern appraisal
  • identity resonance and harmony
  • validate appraisal with the patient
  • self-reflection for the patient
31
Q

other concepts that provide clarity to the basic precepts of the Rogerian model includes:

A
  • the unitary human being, environment and homeodynamic principles
32
Q

the “potential for process, movement and change”

A

energy

33
Q

is the conceptual boundary of all that is

A

energy field

34
Q

the fundamental unit of both the living and the nonliving

A

energy field

35
Q

the energy field continuously varies in

A

intensity, density and extent

36
Q

The human field and the environmental field are constantly exchanging energy. There are no boundaries or barriers to inhibit energy flow between fields

A

openness

37
Q

is the dynamic r active process of the life of the human being that is sccessible to the senses

A

pattern

38
Q

pattern manifestations include

A
  • a person’s experiences, expressions, perceptions, and physical, mental, social and spiritual data
39
Q

a nonlinear domain without spatial or temporal attributes

A

pandimentionality

40
Q

the intensity of change, embraces the continuous variability of the human energy field as it evolves

A

resonancy

41
Q

encompasses the mutual, continuous relationship of the human energy field and the environment energy field

A

integrality

42
Q

the nature of change

A

helicy

43
Q

the process by which change takes place

A

integrality

44
Q

how change takes place

A

resonancy

45
Q
A
46
Q

Rogers identified the principles of change as

A

helicy, resonancy, integrality

47
Q

describes spiral development in continuous, nonrepeating, and innovative patterning

A

helicy principle

48
Q

patterning changes with the development from lower to higher frequency that is with varying degrees of intensity

A

principle of resonancy

49
Q

reflects the unity or wholeness of humans and their environment

A

integrality

50
Q

Five assumptions that are also theoretical assertions

A
  1. Man is a unified whole possessing his own integrity and manifesting characteristics more than and different from the sum of his parts
  2. Man and environment are continuously exchanging matter and energy with one another
  3. The life process evolves irreversibly and you need directionally all of the space-time continuum
  4. Pattern and organization identify man and reflect his innovative wholeness.
  5. Man is characterized by the capacity for abstraction and imagery language, and thought sensation and emotion.
51
Q

Within Roger’s model the critical thinking process can be divided into three components

A

Pattern, appraisal, mutual patterning, and evaluation
