The field of nursing has come to understand the importance of working with disciplines other than nursing, such as the behavioral, social, and physical sciences, for example, in order to improve health outcomes. As this recognition has grown, numerous interdisciplinary theories have evolved out of the research of collaborative teams.

For this Discussion, you will continue to focus on the same practice or organization issue you did in the Week 2 Discussion. You will be assigned an interdisciplinary theory. You will then research your assigned interdisciplinary theory for applications in addressing your practice or organization issue.

Note: Although your task is to explore your assigned interdisciplinary theory in depth, as you engage with the Learning Resources and your colleagues, consider the other theories that may also apply to your practice or organization issue.
