“…There are critics about the contemporary relevance and progression of an NTFG, mainly related to grand theories and conceptual models that nurses could consider abstract, esoteric, and not relevant to clinical practice (Younas, 2020). The dissent about the value and utility of nursing theories for nurses may result from a perceived lack of links between theory and practice and application in nursing care (Fawcett & DeSanto‐Madeya, 2013; Risjord, 2010; Tapp et al., 2016; Tonges et al., 2014).…”

This article describes a theorizing strategy that integrates the components of classifications or terminologies with elements of grand or middle-range theories. Methods:The source of metatheoretical data to support the strategy was the levels of theories by . Terminological data sources were professional classifications and terminologies. Findings:The authors synthesized data and philosophical, metatheoretical, theoretical, and terminological knowledge from primary sources on the subject to construct arguments and demonstrate suitable links. Conclusions:The proposal presented in this article of a strategy for building theories integrates theories and classifications or standardized nomenclatures. It applies levels of theorization: scrutiny of phenomena, description, conceptualization, naming, relationship, modeling, and operationalization to achieve higher levels of explanatory, predictive, and prescriptive properties on generated theory. Implications for Nursing Practice:The implications for practice and research are connected to the theorizing strategy proposed in this article. We assume that using professional language at all levels of theorization can ensure that the concepts generated are closer to clinical practice.

Objective To determine the impact of applying the theory of human becoming and self-care deficit theory of nursing in overcoming insomnia in patients of urinary incontinence (UI) after stroke. Insomnia is a sleep disorder experienced by UI patients after stroke which can exacerbate problems related to brain damage and can complicate the recovery process. Methods This study was a quasi-experimental conducted in 4 hospitals. Fifty-six patients were selected by convenience sampling and divided into 2 groups (the intervention and control group). Participants in the intervention group received “applying the theory of Human becoming and self-care deficit theory of nursing,” starting when the patient is about to go home from the hospital and continuing at the house. Measurement of insomnia is done using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Results The mean insomnia scores of participants from both groups increased in the first and third measurements. The second and third insomnia measurements found a significant difference (P < 0.001). This intervention decreased the average score of insomnia by 4.11 times in the second measurement and 5.82 times in the third measurement. The most important item that decreased in the third measurement of insomnia was sleep efficiency. Conclusions Applying the theory of human becoming and self-care deficit theory of nursing in this study significantly decreased the insomnia score of post-stroke UI patients. It can be used as a guide for nurses, patients, and families in managing insomnia. In addition, the application of nursing theory in nursing practice can systematize nursing care plans and organize the knowledge of professionals into a conceptual framework, as well as provide effective guidance for nurses on what to do.
