Secondary data on health-related subjects: major sources, uses, and limitations.

Although secondary data are generally neglected by nurses, they are useful for nurse researchers, practitioners, educators, administrators, and policy makers. Major sources of data on health-related subjects are medical records, administrative records, the census, vital statistics, surveys of the National Center for Health Statistics, social science archives, and nursing archives, each with its specific uses and limitations.

8-4 Research. Part 1: a stance for nursing research--tenacity or inquiry.

In a two-part series, a/proprosal is presented for implementation research which integrates practical, technical, and political judgment. This implementation research--or 8-4 research--is contrasted with pseudo-technical research. In Part I it is proposed that nursing research should be assessed in terms of payoff for nursing rather than promise for nursing, that 8-j research is a suitable paradigm for all nursing research, and that nursing research is a suitable preoccupation for any and all nursing personnel. Part II (to appear in the May-June 1975 Nursing Research) develops eight points of encounter--as between 8-4 research and pseudotechnical research--pertinent to designing nursing research. A conception of design is proposed that displays an appropriate role for conation, drive, or intent in any designed research.

8-4 research. Part II: DESIGNING NURSING RESEARCH--EIGHT POINTs of encounter.

In a two-part series, a proposal for research which integrates practical, technical, and political judgment is presented. Such research is called 8-4 research and is opposed to pseudotechnical research. 8-4 research is discussed as an advance over more current nursing research preoccupations. In Part I it is proposed that nursing research should be considered in terms of payoff not merely promise for nursing, that 8-4 research is a suitable paradigm for all nursing research, and that nursing research is a suitable preoccupation for any and all nursing personnel. In Part II eight points of encounter--as between 8-4 research and pseudotechnical research-pertinent to designing nursing research are given. A conception of design is proposed that displays the role of conation, drive, or intent in any designed research.
