  Title The practical discourse in philosophy and nursing: An exploration of linkages and shifts in the evolution of praxis Type Journal Article
  Year 2004 Publication (down) Nursing Philosophy Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 5 Issue 1 Pages 54-66  
  Keywords Nursing philosophy; Ethics; Nursing  
  Abstract This paper, firstly, examines the linkages and shifts in the evolution of of praxis. The concept of praxis, also known as the practical discourse in philosophy, has been expressed in different ways in different eras. However, the linkages from one era to another and from one paradigm to another are not well explicated in the nursing literature. Blurring of the linkages occurred from the popular association of praxis within the emancipatory paradigm. Integral to the concept of praxis, since the time of Aristotle, is the notion of phronesis: a process of moral reasoning enacted to establish the 'good' of a particular situation, often referred to as practical wisdom. Secondly, the paper, promotes and affirms the importance of praxiological knowledge development in the discipline. Furthermore, increased appreciation of the concept of praxis provides an important vehicle for the advancement of nursing as a moral endeavour and the nurse as moral agent.

  Title Can evidence improve nursing practice? Type Journal Article
  Year 2006 Publication (down) Nursing Journal Northland Polytechnic Abbreviated Journal coda, An Institutional Repository for the New Zealand ITP Sector  
  Volume 10 Issue Pages 27-32  
  Keywords Evidence-based medicine; Nursing; Professional development  
  Abstract Evidenced Based Practice is aimed at providing safe, effective and cost-appropriate health care. The utilisation of EBP in nursing has proved to be valuable not only for patients and nurses, but also for other health professionals and the wider community. However, despite the recognised benefits of EBP, a significant gap between theory and practice exists. This paper explores some of the issues behind not implementing EBP, such as comfort with traditional practices, lack of engagement with EBP, and time constraints.
