Clinical practice
Clarity
• There were early criticisms of the model with comments
such as difficult-to-understand principles, lack of
operational definitions, and inadequate tools for
measurement (Butterfield, 1983)
• However, the model has passed the test of time for the
development of nursing science as nursing matured as a
science.
Simplicity
• Ongoing studies and work within the model have served to
simplify and clarify some of the concepts and
relationships.
• However, when the model is examined in total
perspective, some still classify it as complex.
Generality
• Rogers’ conceptual model is abstract and therefore
generalizable and powerful.
• It is broad in scope, providing a framework for the
development of nursing knowledge through the generation of
grand and middle-range theories.
Accessibility
• Drawing on knowledge from a multitude of scientific fields,
Rogers’ conceptual model is deductive in logic with an
inherent lack of immediate empirical support (Barrett,
1990b).
Importance
• Rogers’ science has the fundamental intent of
understanding human evolution and its potential for human
betterment.
• The science “coordinates a universe of open systems to
identify the focus of a new paradigm and initiate nursing’s
identity as a science” (Rogers,1989, p. 182).
