The introduction substantively presents all the following elements: 

· Identifies the role of concept analysis within theory development.

· Identifies the selected nursing concept.

· Identifies the nursing theory that addresses the selected concept. 

· Names the sections of the paper.

· Scholarly support is required.

2. Definition/Explanation of the selected nursing concept

This section includes: 

· Defines/explains the concept using scholarly literature (a dictionary maybe used for this section ONLY, and additional scholarly nursing references are required).

· A substantive discussion of this section with support from nursing literature is required.

3. Literature review

This section requires: 

· A substantive discussion of at least 6 (six) scholarly nursing literature sources on the selected concept.

· Themes, ideas, and/or facts about the concept found in the reviewed sources are presented in an organized fashion.

· Support from nursing literature is required.

Please Note: Primary research articles about the selected nursing concept are the most useful resource for the literature review.

4. Defining attributes

For this section:

· A minimum of THREE (3) attributes are required. 

· A substantive discussion of this section with support from nursing literature is required

Explanation: An attribute identifies characteristics of a concept.  For this situation, the characteristics of the selected nursing concept are identified and discussed. 

5. Antecedent and Consequence

This section requires the identification of:

· 1 antecedent of the selected nursing concept. 

· 1 consequence of the selected nursing concept.

· A substantive discussion of the element with support from nursing literature is required.

Explanation: An antecedent is an identifiable occurrence that precedes an event. In this situation, an antecedent precedes a selected nursing concept. A consequence follows or is the result of an event. In this situation a consequence follows or is the result of the selected nursing concept.

· 1 Model Case is created by the student and discussed substantively by demonstrating within the case each of the following areas:

o Definition

o All identified attributes

Explanation:  A model case is an example of a hypothetical or real-life situation that demonstrates all of the attributes noted previously in this assignment. 

· 1 Borderline Case is created by the student in which one or two of the previously identified attributes are missing.

· 1 Contrary Case is created by the student that demonstrates the opposite of the selected nursing concepts. All identified attributes of the concept are absent in this case. 

Explanation: Borderline case is a created case where one or two of the previously identified attributes are missing. Contrary case is a created case that demonstrate the complete opposite of the selected nursing concept – all identified attributes are missing. 

8. Theoretical Applications of the Concept

· Discuss the purpose of a concept analysis in relationship to theory.

· Explain how the concept applies to the selected nursing theory.

· A substantive discussion of the element with support from nursing literature is required. 

9. Conclusion

This section requires:

· Summarization of key information regarding:

o Selected nursing concept.

o Selected nursing theory.

o Application of concept analysis findings to advanced practice nursing (specific to selected specialty track professional role and/or area of practice).
