in hospitals to professor-taught courses at universities.

U
3. Which argument best supports the idea of nursing as a professional discipline rather than
an academic discipline?
A
A. ―Nursing is an applied science. Its practice component places an emphasis on the
delivery of service by nurses rather than the development of academic knowledge.‖

disciplines and, as a result, is beyond the realm of most academic programs in the sciences
that acknowledge idea sharing across disciplines.‖
C. ―Nursing is a concept with a lengthy unofficial history. Individuals have been providing
nursing care to others since the Crusades, and this professional provision of services predates
formal education in the field.‖
D. ―Nursing is a relative newcomer to advanced education. For many years, nurses were
educated or trained only at a Bachelor’s level, and advanced practice therefore has its roots in
the profession itself rather than in academia.‖
Ans: A

flawed relic of past scientific thinking.

postmodern school of philosophy.
