This assignment presents a modified method for conducting a concept analysis of ONE concept
that is important and useful to the nurse practitioner role.  The concept for this assignment must
be supported by a published nursing theory. The selected concept is identified and then the
elements of the analysis process are applied in order to synthesize knowledge for application as
demonstrated through the creation of model, borderline, and contrary cases.  Theoretical
applications of the concept are also discussed. Non-nursing theories may NOT be used. The
paper concludes with a synthesis of the student’s new knowledge about the concept. The
scholarly literature is incorporated throughout the analysis.  Only the elements identified in this assignment should be used for this concept analysis.
