Dorothy Johnson's Behavioral System Model Dorothy influenced the nursing practices throughout her career. She emphasized the significance of research-based information on effects of the care given to patients by the clients. She also argues that nursing was both an art and science. She insisted that nurses had to implement both their science and art knowledge when handling patients. She proposed that the knowledge of science was important in ensuring the patients got proper treatment. Johnson proposal argued on the benefits of the key concepts that are derived from both applied and basic sciences. Her model stated that the nursing care was important for the maintenance of the …show more content…
The theory states that reducing the stressful factors affecting the patients was an important method of ensuring the state of equilibrium was achieved. Another method she thought was effective in achieving the state of equilibrium was using the adaptive and natural processes of the patient. Johnson’s theory originates from Nightingales theory that believes the main purpose of a nurse’s work is to ensure the patient recover and prevent an injury (Iskandarani, Hammadi, and Gizani 115). Johnson argues that the art and science of nursing focus on a patient as individuals. Moreover, the theory also states that the patient should not be viewed as a disease entity. The behavioral theory uses concepts from ethnology, psychology, and sociology to argue its …show more content…
The subsystem provides security and survival need to an individual. The main consequence of the attachment subsystem is intimacy, social inclusion, development, and nurturing of the social networks. The behavioral achievement subsystem tries to manipulate both the internal and external environment. It main goal is to maintain and control the factors in the environment that influences the success of the system. The main areas affected by the achievement subsystem include social, creative, physical, and mechanical skills (Iskandarani, Hammadi, and Gizani 115). The aggressive behavioral section deals with the preservation and protection of an individual. The aggressive subsystem argues that an aggressive character is learned, and its main purpose is to harm and hurt others. The law, however, has created limits to self-preservation and self-protection. The law stipulates that there are limits when it comes to the protection of an individual and it important to consider the protection and respect of the other
