Nurses' and Physicians' Perceptions of Nursing Authority.

Katzman, Elaine Menter

Journal of Professional Nursing, v5 n4 p208-14 Jul-Aug 1989

The findings in the Authority in Nursing Roles Inventory support the premise that in spite of expanded nursing roles emphasizing nursing authority, there are disagreements between nurses' and physicians' perceptions of the authority of nurses as well as areas of dissatisfaction within each professional group.
