Description and initial applications of the Staggers & Parks Nurse-Computer Interaction Framework.
The authors developed a nurse-computer interaction framework by integrating concepts from human-computer interaction, nursing informatics, and developmental psychology. In this framework, nurses and computers interact in a system of mutual influences, with information being the medium of exchange between them. Nurse behaviors and computer interface actions occur according to their respective characteristics. In turn, the nurse-computer dyad is embedded within a nursing context and moves along a nursing informatics developmental trajectory. A sample of findings from empirical studies is placed in the framework, and framework uses are described.
