A Feminist Approach to Concept Analysis

Judith Wuest

Faculty of Nursing, University of New Brunswick, Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada.

Concept analysis is an important device for clanfying the meaning of concepts and the foundations of nursing theory, research, and practice. Exploration of traditional approaches to concept analysis reveals the limitations of these methods for contextual analysis that acknowledges the social construction of the concept and acknowledges gender, class, and racial bias. Concept analysis conducted from a feminist perspective overcomes these weaknesses and becomes a powerful toolfor the development of nursing knowledge.
