title: A model for analysis of the nurse-patient interactive process (MAIP).
abstract: A model for analysis of the nurse-patient interactive process (MAIP), based on the analysis of the content of that interaction, is proposed as a method for determining appropriate psychosocial nursing diagnoses for the patient. The model focuses on the qualitative aspects of the phenomenon of interaction. The MAIP permits a systematic analysis of the nurse-patient interaction, and in turn will provide guidance for the professional in their actions in the interactive process.
