Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Examples of middle-range theories that have been used in research include Beck's (2012) Theory of Postpartum Depression; the Theory of Unpleasant Symptoms (Lenz et al., 1997), Kolcaba's (2003) Comfort Theory, Pender's Health Promotion Model, and Mishel's Uncertainty in Illness Theory (1990). Middle-range theories are specific to certain phenomena. Descriptive theory thoroughly describes a phenomenon. Non-nursing models used by nurse researchers (e.g., Bandura's Social Cognitive Theory) are referred to as borrowed theories; when the appropriateness of borrowed theories for nursing inquiry is confirmed, the theories become shared theories. Some qualitative researchers seek to develop grounded theories, data-driven explanations to account for phenomena under study through inductive processes.
