A nursing perspective on the interrelationships between theory, research and practice.
This paper is concerned with the interrelationships between the three concepts of theory, research and practice. In the course of discussing the interrelationships between these concepts, research is identified as the link between theory and practice on both a formal (explicit) and informal (tacit) level. The role of formal and informal research in the development of nursing expertise is also given some consideration.
