• B) "Nurses must develop their own unique practice theories by asking what needs to be accomplished, how it will be accomplished, and in what context it will be done."
• C) "A good nursing practice theory is marked by the traits of clarity, coherence, comprehensiveness, simplicity, explanatory power, justificatory power, output power, and practicability."
