“…To predict the future of nursing science, this retrospective analyze is generated based on Kuhnian revolution theory. In the light of Wall and Carraro, (2009), Kuhnian perspective had an influence on the development of the nursing framework and theories, because metaparadigm of each nursing theory was developed under the concept of paradigm. Eventually, metaparadigm become the identity of nursing theories in which the concept of human being, environment, health, and nursing must be defined.…”

“…According to the principle of Kuhn' s paradigm shift, Wall and Carraro (2009) explained the development of the nursing theories that "different theories have key points that converge and more recent theories, that is, new theories aim to refute or overthrow older theories (p. 419). Therefore, the revolution of nursing theories will happen when anomalies are presented by nursing research (Wall & Carraro, 2009). Furthermore, new paradigms of nursing science must be a free expression of art, science, and knowledge to preserve the uniqueness of nursing (Wall & Carraro, 2009).…”

Knowing a history of nursing science allows nurses to understand the journey of nursing theorists and scientists in developing the nursing science. Since the era of Florence Nightingale in the mid-18th century, the nursing theories and nursing research were published to the public, particularly scientific community. During late 18th and 19th century, there were many interesting questions among these debates that have not been answer yet, such as is it a nursing science or science of nursing? and is it a pure science or applied science? Even though the scientific community acknowledges that nursing is known as a science, many scholars remain to discuss the definition and category of nursing science. Along the history of nursing knowledge development, nursing scholars faced many challenges concerning the difficulty to develop the required content for nursing practices, to be an excellent discipline in the developing science base, to prepare nurse researchers, and to disseminate research results to the community and to the public (Hinshaw, 1989). Nowadays nursing science is entering into the postmodern era and it will be continued development in the next decade. Even if nurses do not recognise that nursing knowledge is currently in crisis, looking for the future of nursing science throughout the principle of Kuhn’s paradigm shift might provide valuable direction for nurse. Therefore, this paper aims to explain Kuhn’s revolutionary theory and its principle. Moreover, the influence of Kuhn’s revolution theory on the revolution of nursing science that will be present in this paper.

“…Health professionals have built up their knowledge about the body, disease, semiology, therapeutics and care, generally using a technical/theoretical view. In this context, health sciences frequently update their theoretical-conceptual and methodological framework, whose results bring about a mismatch in the care practices of health service professionals 3 . In the hospital context, the Cartesian biomedical model is evidenced, determined by specialization, fragmentation of work processes, valuation of technique, increasing manipulation of technologies and innovations in terms of equipment and medicines.…”

Reflexões sobre a articulação entre o homo faber e o homo sapiens na enfermagem

This reflective study aimed to analyze the articulation between the nurse-teacher (Homo sapiens) and the nurse-caregiver (Homo faber) in the hospital environment, in the light of Gramscian thought. In nursing, two dimensions coexist: theoretical, exemplified in the figure of nurse-teachers with their research projects and scientific publications, and the practical dimension, with the technical care delivery. Both the nurse-teachers' distancing from the practical scenarios of undergraduate education and the nursecaregivers' distancing from research and evidence-based practice are evidenced. In view of the dilemma between Homo sapiens and Homo faber in Nursing, it is important to reflect on the ethical dimension underlying the actions of both, focused on the human being. This dialogue cannot be ignored, because it underlies the exploration of new horizons and the growth of nursing as a science and social practice. RESUMOEstudo reflexivo com o objetivo de analisar a articulação entre o enfermeiro-docente (Homo sapiens) e o enfermeiro-assistencial (Homo faber) no ambiente hospitalar, à luz do pensamento gramsciano. Na Enfermagem, coexistem duas dimensões: a teórica, exemplificada na figura do enfermeiro docente com seus projetos de pesquisa e publicações científicas; e a dimensão prática, com a atuação técnico-assistencial. Evidencia-se o distanciamento do enfermeiro docente em relação aos cenários de prática da graduação, assim como do enfermeiro assistencial, da pesquisa e da prática baseada em evidências científicas. Face ao dilema entre Homo faber e Homo sapiens na Enfermagem, emerge a importância de refletir sobre a dimensão ética subjacente às ações de ambos, centradas no ser humano. Este diálogo não pode ser ignorado, pois dele depende o desbravamento de novos horizontes e o crescimento da Enfermagem enquanto ciência e prática social.Pesquisa em enfermagem; Enfermagem prática; Conflito de interesses; Trabalho.

“…Bahramnezhad ve arkadaşları ile Wall ve Carraro'nun aktardığı üzere; Kuhn'a göre her bilim dalı, o bilimin konusunu belirleyen, sınırlayan ve aynı zamanda o konudaki çalışma metodolojisini ve programını tanımlayan bir çerçeveye sahiptir. Bilimin birikimlerle değil devrimsel sıçramalarla ilerlediğine inanan Kuhn, her bilimde diğer paradigmalara karşı üstün olan tek bir paradigmanın hakim olabileceğini savunmaktadır (8,11). Hemşirelikte kendi paradigmasını oluştururken Kuhn'un paradigma tanımı ve anlayışından yararlanmıştır.…”

Ontolojik ve epistemolojik sorulara cevaplar arayan hemşirelik bilimi, geçmişten günümüze mesleğin temelini ve sınırlarını araştırmış, hemşirelik biliminin öncüleri mesleğin özünü çeşitli felsefi perspektiflerden açıklamaya çalışmışlardır. Hemşireliğin ilerlemesi ve gelişmesi için devam eden bu arayış, Thomas Kuhn'un "normal bilim" kavramından etkilenmiştir. Kuhn'un bilimsel devrimi, hemşirelik bilgisinin, metaparadigma ve paradigmalarının gelişiminde rol oynamıştır. Bu etkiye rağmen, hemşirelik biliminin merkezine aldığı insanın çok yönlü yapısı ve hızlı değişim gösteren sağlık hastalık süreçleri nedeniyle hemşirelik paradigmasının gelişim süreçleri ve Kuhn'un bilimsel devrim anlayışı arasında farklılıklar bulunmaktadır. Bu derlemenin amacı Kuhn'un bilimsel devriminin hemşirelik paradigması üzerine etkilerini, ortak yanlarını ve farklarını literatür ışığında tartışmak ve eleştirel olarak analiz etmektir.
