• Born on October 10, 1933 in Memphis Tennessee

• Medical-surgical Nursing

Health (Theory of Health as Expanding Consciousness)

is the “pattern of the whole” of a person and includes disease as a manifestation of the pattern of the whole, based on the premise that life is an ongoing process of expanding consciousness.

Pattern

Explicit manifestations of the pattern are the:

1. Genetic Pattern

2. Voice Pattern

Rosemarie Rizzo Parse

Theory of Human Becoming

Rosemarie Rizzo Parse

Dr. Parse is a graduate of Duquesne University in Pittsburgh

She is also founder of the Institute of Human becoming, and a fellow in the American Academy of Nursing.

Nine assumptions of Theory of Human becoming

1. The human is coexisting while co-constituting rhythmical patterns with the universe.

2. The human is open, freely choosing meaning in situation, bearing responsibility for decisions.

3. The human is unitary, continuously co-constituting patterns of relating

4. The human is transcending multidimensionally with the possibles.

5. Becoming is unitary human-living-health.

6. Becoming is rhythmically co-constituting human-universe process.

7. Becoming in the human's patterns of relating value priorities.

8. Becoming is an intersubjective process of transcending with the possible.

9. Becoming is unitary human's emerging.

Principle One (Theory of Human Becoming)

Structuring meaning multidimensionally is cocreating reality through the language of valuing and imaging"

Meaning is the central theme of this principle. Structuring meaning multidimensionally is what humans do; every person constructs a unique view of the world that evolves at both explicit and tacit levels in the process of living and relating with others

Confirming-nonconforming (Valuing)

is an important paradoxical process in light of the concept of valuing.

Imaging (One of the Principle One concepts)

Is persons' explicit-tacit knowing of their personal realities. It is a process of knowing and of coming to know as persons accept and reject ideas, values, beliefs, and practices consistent with their worldview.

_____ is the creating of reality, and one's reality reflects who one is as a unitary person

Valuing (One of the Principle One concepts)

a process of choosing and embracing what is important.

____ reflect choices and help shape patterns of uniqueness.

Valuing (One of the Principle One concepts)

a process of choosing and embracing what is important.

____ reflect choices and help shape patterns of uniqueness.

Confirming-nonconforming (Valuing)

is an important paradoxical process in light of the concept of valuing.

Non-confirming (Valuing)

is the opposite of confirming in that people, ideas, and projects maybe denied, rejected, and ignored.

Confirming (Valuing)

is about embracing accepting, and cherishing people, ideas and projects that are most important.

Non-confirming (Valuing)

is the opposite of confirming in that people, ideas, and projects maybe denied, rejected, and ignored.

Languaging (One of the Principle One concepts)

It is about the ways persons are with the world and in relationships with others and self.

Principle Two (Theory of Human Becoming)

"Co-creating rhythmical patterns of relating is living the paradoxical unity of revealing-concealing and enabling-limiting while connecting-separating

The theme of this principle is rhythmicity, and it focuses on the paradoxical rhythms that constitutes patterns of becoming.

Revealing-concealing (Paradoxical Unities 2nd Principle)

Concerns the ways persons disclose and do not disclose meanings, thoughts, feelings, values, concerns, and hope. Human beings reveal and conceal all at once through their choices, actions, and words

Enabling-limiting (Paradoxical Unities 2nd Principle)

Concerns the choices persons make moment to moment and the inherent opportunities and limitations that accompany those personal choices. The concept is linked to doors opening and closing as people make choices and move on in life.

Connecting-seperating (Paradoxical Unities 2nd Principle)

Concerns the ways persons can be with others while at the same time being separate from them or how persons can be together without being in the same location

Principle Three (Theory of Human Becoming)

"Co-transcending with the possible is powering unique ways of originating in the process of transforming"

This principle brings forth ideas about change, struggle and transcendence. It focuses on how human beings create themselves while moving with their hopes and dreams.

Powering (One of the Principle Three concepts)

is the pushing-resisting process that propels people in life. It involves the way persons consider the possibilities that lie ahead and how they choose to go on and find a way to be with situations.

Originating (One of the Principle Three concepts)

Is about human uniqueness and the ways persons create their e becoming as they choose from all the possibilities that could be. The paradox of conformity-nonconformity surrounds the concept originating.

Transforming (One of the Principle Three concepts)

This represents a process of deliberately shifting one's patterns of health. The shift may be a choice to change one's attitude about a certain situation, or the shift may be a change in how one lives day-today routines or habits.
