Sammanfattning
This is the second of two articles
that aim at contributing to the
understanding of the development
of the nursing discipline in Sweden.
This article will describe the
development of nursing as a
social system. Interviews and
written accounts of experiences
as nurse researchers representing
four generations were transcribed.
A qualitative content analysis
of the material reveals that
discipline of nursing as a social
system has both informal and
structural dimensions describing
patterns of communication, collaboration
and power relationships
in each of these dimensions. These
dimensions interact with each
other in the development of nursing
as a discipline. Compared to
the first generation nurse researcher,
the findings indicate that
nurse researchers today may be
experiencing difficulty in maintaining
an informal supportive network
that was significant in the
early years of development of nursing
as a science. The informal
collaboration, patterns of communication
and hierarchical system
seem to be replaced by the formal
structuring of nursing research.
