Abstract

Discussing the importance of nursing theories for the promotion of a unified approach to practice and teaching, the authors present a synopsis of the Roy Model and report an experience with its application to research. They conclude the article by emphasizing the need for more of these applications so that theories may come to serve as guidelines for the nurse's performance.
