Theoretical Affective and Cognitive Components of Quality Nursing

Beginning of article

Abstract: What is the relationship between affective and cognitive components of quality nursing? How strong a relationship is there between theoretical concepts of holism and caring? These were the questions we asked after the department of nursing in a publicly supported Southeastern university changed its curricular focus to include additional emphasis on caring and holism. Data from this study suggest a clear relationship between affective and cognitive components of quality nursing and among subgroups of these components.
