FAWCETT, Jacqueline. Empirical Indicators: Conceptual and Theoretical Origins. Aquichan [online]. 2021, vol.21, n.4, e2144. Epub 03-Dic-2021. ISSN 1657-5997. https://doi.org/10.5294/aqui.2021.21.4.4.
This paper discusses the connections between nursing conceptual model concepts, middle-range theory, and situation-specific theory concepts, as well as between the theory concepts and how they are measured, that is, empirical indicators. Three types of empirical indicators are described-instruments, assessment tools, and interventions-and an example of each type is given. The paper's central thesis is that a conceptual model concept is -or should be- the starting point for selecting or constructing an empirical indicator.
