The Unitary Being Research Section invites abstracts for a Guaranteed
Symposium at the 2007 MNRS Research Conference in Omaha, Nebraska. Continuing
Evolving Patterns in Unitary Being Perspectives is the title for this
symposium.
The Unitary Being Perspective Research Section's continuing focus is to advance
nursing knowledge related to this perspective and its application. The Unitary
Being Perspective encompasses three major theories of the simultaneity
paradigm: (1) Newman�s Health as Expanding Consciousness, (2) Parse�s
Theory of Human Becoming, and (3) Rogers� Science of Unitary Human Beings.
The perspective is equally applicable and useful in clinical, administrative,
educational, and research areas, and offers opportunities for nurses working in
diverse roles and settings to assist clients, families, and communities
experience optimum self-determined health. Research within individual, family,
and group units of analysis is welcome.
Abstracts should be no more than 300 words and address the following:
background, significance, purpose, framework, methodology, results, conclusions,
and implications. Do not include or attach figures or tables. Each author may
submit a maximum of two abstracts for review.
Please submit abstracts as Microsoft Word e-mail attachments to:
