  • Title: Measuring nurses' moral judgments.
    Author: Parker RS.
    Journal: Image J Nurs Sch; 1990; 22(4):213-8. PubMed ID: 2292441.
    Abstract:
    Studies of the moral reasoning of nurses yield inconsistent findings. Using Cronbach and Meehl's interpretive framework, the author demonstrates the lack of construct validity for Kohlberg's theory of moral development and related measures of moral reasoning. Gilligan's relational theory of moral orientations is proposed as an alternative theory worth testing in nurse samples.
