This article aimed to undertake a comparative
reflection on the theories of nursing of Paterson and
Zderad, Parse, Watson and Meleis, based on the theory
evaluation model and its functional components: focus,
client, nursing, health, patient-nursing interaction,
environment, problems, and nursing care, as proposed by
Meleis. The choice of the academic theorists was explained
as these are emerging theories and adhere to the current
paradigm, converging towards the holistic view of the
human being. After theoretical reflection, it was concluded
that, in the theories analyzed, the definition of nursing is
clear and explicit, emphasizing its action in the promotion
of health and quality of life.
