    Author: Havens DS, Vasey J.
    Journal: J Nurs Adm; 2003 Jun; 33(6):331-6. PubMed ID: 12796630.
    Abstract:
    Key organizations and new legislation are promoting staff nurse involvement in decisions about nursing practice and patient care as a long-term strategy to improve the culture of the work environment. The authors discuss the Decisional Involvement Scale (DIS), a multipurpose measure that can be used as a diagnostic tool, an organizational development strategy, and an evaluative instrument. In addition, support to substantiate the DIS as a valid and reliable measure is summarized.
