Session presented on Friday, September 26, 2014:
The overall purpose of this program of research is to promote adaptation and health in persons with chronic health conditions initially by developing cognitive nursing interventions aimed at coping. To increase understanding of the relationship between human cognitive abilities and adaptation processes requires a more focused defining and measuring of cognition and relating cognition to a specific conceptualization and theory-based measurement of coping. This understanding can provide the basis for planning and testing cognitive nursing interventions to promote adaptation to chronic health conditions. In a time of limited resources for health care, and increasing incidence of chronic conditions, nursing will focus on enhancing the greatest health care resource, the ability within the cognitive and emotional functions of each person to handle health issues. The specific aims of the pilot study are: 1) To determine whether or not there is a relationship between cognitive abilities and coping and adaptation processing used by persons dealing with chronic health conditions; and 2) To determine the specific cognitive abilities that relate to given patterns of coping and adaptation processing in a sample of persons dealing with chronic health conditions.
