“…Utility reactions comprised 16%. This research indicates that the following aspects are important determinants of managers' PM reactions: type of feedback (e.g., Erdemli, Sümer, & Bilgiç, 2007;Mabey, 2001;Redman & Mathews, 1995), rating approach (FDRS, Schleicher et al, 2009; graphic rating scales, Dale et al, 2013), general comfort with PM processes or the system (Villanova, Bernardin, Dahmus, & Sims, 1993), previous PM experience (Brutus, Fletcher, & Baldry, 2009;Smith et al, 2000), and personality and leadership qualities of the manager (Waldman & Atwater, 2001;Wexley & Youtz, 1985).…”

“…In fact, it appears that perceptions of fairness and accuracy in PM may depend as much on trust in the supervisor as on characteristics of the PM process itself (e.g., Fulk, Brief, & Barr, 1985). On the other hand, our review suggests that manager reactions (see Appendix A, section Ib) are more influenced by formal processes , include rating approach (e.g., Dale et al, 2013; Schleicher, Bull, & Green, 2009), as well as by managers’ individual factors (e.g., previous PM experience, personality).…”

“…Previous studies use the Novice to Expert framework as an evaluation tool for NPs and can be used with NNP practice groups (Benner, 2001; Conkin Dale et al, 2013; Cusson & Viggiano, 2002; Fitzpatrick & Gripshover, 2016). Documentation and tracking of NNP expertise using the domains and expertise levels defined by Benner (2001) can help communicate to other health care team members the role of the NNP and qualifications for independent practice.…”

“…Benner's framework provided the basis for this inquiry. It was previously used for descriptions of nurses' transitioning to the NP and NNP roles; however, it has not been used to explore NNP expertise and its influence on NNP autonomy, neonatologist and NNP perceptions of practice authority, and physician oversight (Benner, 2001; Conkin Dale et al, 2013; Cusson & Viggiano, 2002; Fitzpatrick & Gripshover, 2016).…”

Background: Perceptions of autonomy in practice affect Neonatal Nurse Practitioner (NNP) job satisfaction, retention, and motivation to pursue NNP roles. However, Novice to Expert theory describes the processes for transitioning to nurse practitioner roles are not in relationship with NNP practice autonomy. Purpose: Relationships between Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) practice authority, state restrictions, APRN volume, and health care access exist. However, do APRN perceptions of autonomy relate to motivation to pursue practice authority? This study provides an exploration of perceptions of NNP practice autonomy in this context. Methodology: Semistructured interviews conducted with NNPs and neonatologists practicing in a restricted setting explored perceptions of practice expertise and autonomy, based on Patricia Benner's Novice to Expert theoretical framework. Laddered methodology organized survey questions, and the Framework Method was used for analysis of results. Results: The majority of eligible NNPs (n = 12, 67%) and neonatologists (n = 8, 67%) agreed to study participation. Identified themes were grouped into larger concepts, including “NNP practice authority,” “NNP expertise,” and “NNP autonomy.” For example, “NNP expertise” included the theme “determining NNP expertise” and associated factors included “procedural skills,” “years and acuity of practice level,” and “confidence in management plan and emergent situations.” Conclusions: Both neonatologists and NNPs perceived neonatologists as a practice authority with support for NNP autonomy. Factors indicating NNP expertise correlated with domains in Benner Novice to Expert theory. Implications: These findings support previous work concerning the evolution of expertise and transition to practice. More inquiry to understand perspectives of APRNs in restricted practice settings is indicated.

“…Literature shows that scientific knowledge is an important tool for the obtainment of governance because it provides the support for decision-making among nurses. Similarly, professional experience provides greater certainty and wisdom for the practice of nursing (11) . Studies show that professional experience tends to create greater governance because it allows the nurse to feel more confident and consequently make decisions more easily.…”

Governance refers to all processes that grant nurses autonomy, control and authority over the nursing practice. The aim of this study was to identify intervening conditions on governance of nursing practice at an obstetrics centre. This is a qualitative study based on the grounded theory method. Data were collected between January and May 2013 by means of semi-structured interviews with 27 participants of a university hospital in southern Brazil, divided into four sampling groups. Data were analysed using open, axial and selective coding. Governance is reinforced by experience and professional autonomy, coordination of the care and management dimension, interpersonal communication, satisfaction and engagement with the profession. It is limited by difficulties with interpersonal relationships, work overload and precarious physical structure of the maternity units. This study provides arguments for the discussion on improvements in healthcare and the professional satisfaction of nurses and nursing teams.
