Contributions to Nursing
Research-based knowledge
Nursing is a science and an art
What is Nursing “An external regulatory force which acts to
preserve the organization and integration of the patient’s behavior at an optimal level under those conditions in which the behavior constitutes a threat to physical or social health, or in which illness is found”
Johnson believed that “nursing was concerned with man as an integrated whole…
Goals of Nursing Nurses should assist the patient to become a
person:1. Whose behavior is proportionate with social demands2. Who is able to modify his behavior in ways that relate
to biological imperatives3. Who is able to benefit to the fullest extent during
illness from the physician’s knowledge and skill4. Whose behavior does not give evidence of
unnecessary trauma as a consequence of illness
1968: Behavior System Model “…and this is the specific knowledge of order we
require” Clients are “stressed” by a stimulus, either internal or
external Stressful stimuli create tensions within the patient that
results in disequilibrium Nursing care should (1) reduce stimuli that are stressors
and (2) provide support of the client’s natural defenses and adaptive processes
Developed as a result of Nightingale’s belief that the goal of nursing is to help individuals prevent or recover from disease or injury
Why A Behavior System Model?
Believes each individual has patterned, purposeful, repetitive ways of acting that
comprise a behavioral system specific to the individual.
Orderly and Predictable
SubsystemsAttachment or Affiliative: formation and attachment of a strong
social bond; provides security and survivalDependency: approval, attention, or recognition and physical
assistance Ingestive: meaning and structures of social events surrounding
the occasion when food is eatenEliminative: human cultures have different socially acceptable
behaviors for excretion of wasteSexual: biological and social factors influenceAggressive: behaviors related to protection and self-
preservation; a defensive response from the individual when life or territory is being threatened
Achievement: provokes behavior that attempt to control the environment. Intellectual, physical, creative, mechanical, and social skills would be included
Assumptions Regarding Subsystems
Each subsystem is composed of four structural characteristics:Drives or GoalSet or Predisposition to ActChoicesObservable Outcome or the Individual’s
Behavior
Assumptions Regarding the Model There is organization, interaction, interdependency and
integration of the parts and elements of behaviors that go to make up the system
A system tends to achieve balance among the various forces operating within and upon it; man continually strives to maintain a behavioral system balance and steady state by more or less automatic adjustments and adaptations to the natural forces occurring on him
A behavioral system, which requires and results in some degree of regularity and constancy in behavior, is essential to man. It is functionally significant because it serves a useful purpose in social life as well as for the individual
System balance reflects adjustments and adaptations that are successful in some way and to some degree
Subsystems Continued Each Subsystem has three functional requirements:
1. System must be protected from noxious influences with which system cannot cope (Protection)
2. Each subsystem must be nurtured through the input of appropriate supplies from the environment (Nurturance)
3. Each subsystem must be stimulated for use to enhance growth and prevent stagnation (Stimulation)
