Introduction: As learners, you will consider concepts as the building blocks of nursing knowledge. By defining, describing, and analyzing concepts, we can develop a better understanding of how events, and experiences, important to nursing practice, are related to other concepts. This understanding can be used to design and implement evidence-based interventions.

a. What are the antecedents to the concept?
b. What are the characteristics of the concept or defining attributes?
c. What are the consequences or outcomes of the concept?
5. Discuss how concepts are the building blocks of a theory. (Provide references)
6. Write a statement that explains the development of your own middle range theory relevant to the case study of Mark and draw a conceptual map that illustrates how the concepts are related.
