Chinn and Kramer’s (2008) pattern of emancipatory knowing focuses on developing an awareness of social problems and taking action to create social change. It provides an overview of Carper’s (1978) four fundamental patterns of knowing in addition to discussing knowing and knowledge within the pattern of emancipatory knowing developed by Chinn and Kramer (2008).Ĭarper’s (1978) patterns of knowing include traditional ideas of empiric knowledge as well as knowing and knowledge that is personal, ethical, and aesthetic in nature. This chapter begins with Carper’s quote and examines five patterns of knowing as a basis for considering the value of multiple forms of knowledge and knowing in nursing. This text challenges you to think broadly, to deliberately consider what you need to know to be an effective nurse, and to think about the values in which such knowing is grounded. All of these factors need to be considered in this particular situation for pain to be eased for this child, but none of these things were knowable until you began to provide care for this patient. Consider such things as nuances of personality, individual responses to pain alleviation that you cannot know until you begin a management regime, a parent’s fear that his or her child may become addicted to pain medications, and your unanticipated degree of intolerance for moral distress when pain is not relieved and an ordering provider will not change dosing requirements. In short, there are many situational factors that collectively affect pain relief that must be considered and that reside in each unique situation. For example, you cannot know whether this particular child is more fearful of male than female nurses until you begin to care for the child. Wouldn’t you need to know more than what you have learned from books, articles, and teachers? There are a whole host of things to know that you cannot learn before you are in a specific situation with a specific patient. Now think about all that you need to know when you are easing the pain of a child who has been severely burned. Think about it: what do you believe nurses need to know? Do you find your answer to be grounded in what you or the profession values? Although the question of what nurses need to know is a very broad one, perhaps some of the things that come to mind are how to ease pain and suffering, how to artfully accomplish hurtful procedures, and how to best interact with families during times of crisis. The importance of the quote is that it makes what we value-not what we produce as knowledge-centrally important. At first, the quote seems to state the obvious: the things that we believe we should develop knowledge about or that we feel to be valuable will determine what our knowledge development products eventually are. This quote from Barbara Carper underscores that, in the field of nursing, what we believe our disciplinary focus to be will determine what we value as knowledge and how we go about developing that knowledge for our practice. Such an understanding . . . involves critical attention to the question of what it means to know and what kinds of knowledge are held to be of most value in the discipline of nursing.
