Sigma Publications: Book Excerpts

Abstract

The Honor Society of Nursing, Sigma Theta Tau International (STTI) conducted its 26th International Nursing Research Congress in San Juan, Puerto Rico from 23-27 July 2015. More than 800 nurses from around the world gathered at the congress, which had as its theme "Question Locally, Engage Regionally, Apply Globally."

These conference proceedings are a collection of abstracts submitted by the authors and presented at the research congress. To promptly disseminate the information and ideas, participants submitted descriptive information and abstracts of at least 300, but no more than 1,500 words. Each oral and poster presentation abstract was peer-reviewed in a double-blind process in which three scholars used specific scoring criteria to judge the abstracts in
accordance with the requirements of STTI's Guidelines for Electronic Abstract Submission.

This PDF ebook is amazingly searchable. In reflection of that, you will not find a lot of internal linking. Simply select the search option and type any search keyword or name you want to explore.

Finally, the opinions, advice, and information contained in this publication do not necessarily reflect the views or policies of STTI or its members. The enhanced abstracts provided in these proceedings were taken directly from authors' submissions, without alteration. While all due care was taken in the compilation of these proceedings, STTI does not warrant that the information is free from errors or omission, or accept any liability in relation to the quality, accuracy, and currency of the information.
