Perry, J.(see also C.). (1990). Currents – towards professionalism. Ph.D. thesis, , .
Abstract: Attitudes towards the concept of professionalism have not been explored to any great extent in this country, especially the attitudes of the Clinical Nurse practitioner. The importance of knowing what Nurses attitudes are to this concept is central to the recognition of the current developmental stage and growth of the profession. A twenty statement Like-style attitudinal questionnaire was given to Registered Nurses to measure current attitudes to professionalism. No statistical significance was found between the degree of positively to professionalism and years of service, educational qualifications eg, practise area, or involvement with a professional organisation. There appeared to be a positive relationship between questionnaire score and length of time in the current practise area ( the longer the service the higher the score). Further statistical significance was found in questions highlighting what Nurses think of Nursing as a profession. This study should form the basis of further research and provide some thought for Nurse leaders, educators and policy makers

Shadbolt, Y. T. (1984). Curriculum innovation in a school of nursing – a case study. Ph.D. thesis, , .
Abstract: The study gives an account of curriculum development and innovation in a New Zealand school of nursing and focuses on some aspects of the basic diploma course. The study attempts, through the medium of case study, to illuminate the way in which significant curriculum decisions are made and ideas translated into institutional and technical form. Evidence is derived from the recorded perceptions of the participants, observations, and analyses of documented material. The findings confirm that the field of study is complex, multivariable and dynamic, and that translation of the curriculum on paper involves a multitude of deliberative and factual decisions by practicing teachers

Mathias, L. (1984). Determination on patient participation in the assessment phase of the nursing process. Ph.D. thesis, , .
Abstract: A pilot study to determine the effectiveness of the assessment tool as a data collection device was crucial to the effectiveness of the major study. The pilot sample consisted of 10 patients who participated in the assessment phase of the Nursing process. Patients complied with therapeutic objectives to control urinary incontinence when they participated in the assessment phase and when 24 hour Nursing support is available. The removal of this support ( within the Hospital environment) may be integral to long term compliance
