Rogers Flashcards
what is Roger’s model entitled?
Theory of Unitary Human Beings
Energy Field
is the fundamental unit of both the living and the nonliving
the knowledge specific to the field of nursing that comes from scientific research
science of nursing
involves using the science of nursing creatively to health better the life of the patient
art of nursing
Pan dimensional
is defined as “non-linear domain without spatial or temporal attributes.”
Synergy
defined as the unique behavior of whole systems, unpredicted by any behaviors
The distinguishing characteristic of any energy field seen as a single wave
Pattern
postulates the inseparability of man and environment and predicts that sequential changes in life process are continuous
principle of reciprocy
predicts that change in human behavior will be determined by the simultaneous interaction of the actual state of human field and the actual state of the environmental field
Principle of synchrony
it speaks to the nature of the change occurring between human and environmental fields
Principle of resonancy
is defined as an indivisible, pan-dimensional energy field identified by pattern
person
Rogers defined this as an expression of the life process
Health
it is the study of unitary, irreducible, indivisible human and environmental fields
nursing
an irreducible, indivisible, pan dimensional energy field identified by pattern and integral with the human field
Environmental
