creative and persons are inseparable from the environment - Dr. Callista Roy.
Concepts

communities, and society as a whole

all the conditions affecting the development and behaviours of the person.

include can be categorized as focal, contextual and residual.

Roy Adaptation Model
- System-
- a set of parts connected to function as a whole for some purpose
- Stimulus-
- something that provokes a response, point of interaction for the human system and the environment
- Focal Stimuli-internal or external stimulus most immediately affecting the system
- Contextual Stimuli-all other stimulus present in the situation
- Residual Stimuli-environmental factor, that effects on the situation that are unclear
- Regulator Subsystem-
- automatic response to stimulus (neural, chemical, and endocrine)
- Cognator Subsystem-
- responds through four cognitive-emotive channels (perceptual and information processing, learning, judgment, and emotion)
- Behaviour-
- internal or external actions and reactions under specific circumstances
- Adaptive Responses-
- promote the integrity of the human system
- Ineffective Responses-
- neither promote not contribute to the integrity of the human system
- Copping Process-
- innate or acquired ways of interacting with the changing environment
- Innate-genetically determined, automatic process
- Acquired-developed through learning, deliberate and conscious
4 Modes of Adaptation
- Physiologic-Physical Mode
- Behaviour pertaining to the physical aspect of the human system
- Physical and chemical processes
- Nurse must be knowledgeable about normal processes
- 5 needs (Oxygenation, Nutrition, Elimination, Activity & Rest, and Protection)
- Self Concept-Group Identity Mode
o The
composite of beliefs and feelings held about oneself at a given time
o Focus
on the psychological and spiritual aspects of the human system
o Need
to know who one is, so that one can exist with a state of unity, meaning, and
purposefulness
o 2
modes (physical self, and personal self)
- Role Function Mode
o Set
of expectations about how a person occupying one position behaves toward a
person occupying another position
o Basic
need-social integrity, the need to know who one is in relation to others
- Interdependance Mode
o Behaviour
pertaining to interdependent relationships of individuals and groups
o Focus
on the close relationships of people and their purpose
o Each
relationship exists for some reason
o Involves
the willingness and ability to give to others and accept from others
o Balance
results in feelings of being valued and supported by others
o Basic
need-feeling of security in relationships
