Abstract

A unique conceptual framework for the study of nurse-computer interaction was created through the collaboration of two researchers in seemingly diverse fields: nursing informatics and developmental psychology. The framework depicts nurses and computers interacting in a system of mutual influences, exchanging information during a particular task, and proceeding on a developmental trajectory. The conceptual framework can help guide research within nursing informatics and help build a cohesive body of knowledge for the future.
