Brasell-Brian, R., & Vallance, E. (2002). Clinical practice/education exchange: Bridging the theory-practice gap. Nursing Praxis in New Zealand, 18(1), 17–26.
Abstract: This article positions clinical practice/education exchange (CPEE) within nursing literature and presents narrative accounts from a nurse educator and clinician who exchanged jobs for one year. This type of exchange, between education institutes and service areas where students are placed, is a new concept. The aim is to enhance student learning and facilitating meaningful links between theory and practice for them.

Schroyen, B., & Finlayson, M. (2004). Clinical teaching and learning: An action research study. Nursing Praxis in New Zealand, 20(2), 36–45.
Abstract: Using an educational action research model, a nursing lecturer based in a polytechnic and ten students formed a research group to address one issue that was important to them. The research group chose to plan, implement and evaluate a practical change strategy aimed at improving the teaching and learning relationship between students and staff nurses in clinical settings. A sample of five staff nurses working closely with five students in the group was invited to join the study in order to gain their perspectives on the issues. The findings were that contract learning provides a strategy which, under certain conditions, offers both students and staff nurses an opportunity to improve the effectiveness of their interactions.

Spence, D., & Smythe, E. (2007). Courage as integral to advancing nursing practice. Nursing Praxis in New Zealand, 23(2), 43–55.
Abstract: This paper focuses on the illumination of courage in nursing. The authors suggest it is a fundamental component of nursing, yet it is seldom mentioned or recognised in the literature, or supported in practice. Data from a hermeneutic analysis of nurses' practice stories is integrated with literature to assist deeper understanding of the meaning of courage in contemporary nursing practice. The purpose is to make visible a phenomenon that needs to be actively fostered if nursing is to effectively contribute to an improved health service.

Harding, T. (2013). Cultural safety : a vital element for nursing ethics. Nursing Praxis in New Zealand, 29(1), 4–11.
Abstract: Argues that the globalisation of nursing and the internationalisation of nursing education potentially leads to the values underpinning nursing curricula coming into conflict with those of other cultures. Suggests the need to examine the values inherent in ethics education in nursing, proposing that cultural safety is incorporated into it in an increasingly multi-cultural nursing environment.

Abstract: Critically examines the theoretical base of the cultural safety guidelines for nursing practice with respect to culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) groups. Poses two questions: have the guidelines led to culturally-safe nursing practice in health care for CALD groups; have the guidelines contributed to provision of culturally-acceptable health care for CALD groups?

McArthur, J., & Dickinson, A. R. (1999). Decision making the explicit evidence-based way: Comparing benefits, harms and costs. Nursing Praxis in New Zealand, 14(1), 33–42.
Abstract: This paper explores the relationship between evidence, decision tools, and the effectiveness of the nursing contribution to health services. It examines a continuum of decision-making within the international trend of the Effectiveness Movement, drawing on international literature and local experience. It draws on the concept of explicit evidence-based decision-making, the guideline development movement as exemplified through the New Zealand Guidelines Group, information technology in decision support, and the challenges of an evidential approach to nursing. This article is based on a paper given at 'The Pride and Passion of Professional Nursing Practice' College of Nurses' Aotearoa (NZ) Conference, Rotorua, 8-9 October 1998.
