title: Power and feminism: a nursing science perspective.
abstract: Nurse executives are in an influential position to engineer health care reform and service delivery if their resources are fully maximized. Derived from Rogers' science and Barrett's power theory, this exploratory study demonstrated a weak relationship between power and feminism in female nurse executives, yet showed a modest correlation between feminism and the power subscale, freedom to act intentionally. Suggestions are provided for further development of the theoretical foundations of a nursing science perspective for nursing administration.
