This is an application of Dr. Rosemarie Parse's Human Becoming Theory to the concept of community. Dr. Parse sets forth definitions and examples of original community change concepts and processes arising from the human becoming school of thought.
Developing from philosophical foundations laid by Martha Rogers and existential phenomenologists, Dr. Parse's theory of human becoming has evolved into a school of thought, enabling nurses and nurse scholars to understand people and their universe in a unique way, thus providing a human science context for nursing research and practice. Following a brief introductory chapter, the author reviews Rogerian and existential-phenomenological concepts as they relate to human becoming. An examination of the principles, concepts, and theoretical structures of the human becoming school of thought follows. In the final chapter, Dr. Parse presents methodologies for basic and applied research related to ...

"An additional assumption was that the processes for theory development were new to nursing and hence, nurses in graduate programs learned strategies for advancing knowledge from other disciplines. This assumption was debunked with the knowledge that nurses were always engaged in knowledge development, driven by their experiences in clinical practice. Because of these assumptions, most of the early writing about theory development was about outlining strategies that should be used, rather than strategies that have already been used in the discipline to develop theories. Theorists themselves did not uncover or adequately discuss ways by which they developed their theories, therefore the tendency was to describe processes that were based on theories developed in other disciplines, mainly the physical and social sciences. And an implicit assumption was made that there should be a single strategy for theory development, some claiming to begin the process from practice, and others believing it should be driven by research"--Provided by publisher.
