| models, educational | Theoretical models which propose methods of learning or teaching as a basis or adjunct to changes in attitude or behaviour. These educational interventions are usually applied in the fields of health and patient education but are not restricted to patient care. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| models, genetic | Theoretical representations that simulate the behaviour or activity of genetic processes or phenomena. They include the use of mathematical equations, computers, and other electronic equipment. (12 Dec 1998) |
| models, immunological | Theoretical representations that simulate the behaviour or activity of immune system, processes, or phenomena. They include the use of mathematical equations, computers, and other electrical equipment. (12 Dec 1998) |
| models, molecular | Models used experimentally or theoretically to study molecular shape, electronic properties, or interactions; includes analogous molecules, computer-generated graphics, and mechanical structures. (12 Dec 1998) |
| models, neurological | Theoretical representations that simulate the behaviour or activity of the neurological system, processes or phenomena; includes the use of mathematical equations, computers, and other electronic equipment. (12 Dec 1998) |
| models, nursing | Theoretical models simulating behaviour or activities in nursing, including nursing care, management and economics, theory, assessment, research, and education. Some examples of these models include orem self-care model, roy adaptation model, and rogers life process model. (12 Dec 1998) |
| models, organizational | Theoretical representations and constructs that describe or explain the structure and hierarchy of relationships and interactions within or between formal organizational entities or informal social groups. (12 Dec 1998) |
| models, psychological | Theoretical representations that simulate psychological processes and/or social processes. These include the use of mathematical equations, computers, and other electronic equipment. (12 Dec 1998) |
| models, statistical | Statistical formulations or analyses which, when applied to data and found to fit the data, are then used to verify the assumptions and parameters used in the analysis. Examples of statistical models are the linear model, binomial model, polynomial model, two-parameter model, etc. (12 Dec 1998) |
| models, structural | A representation, generally smale in scale, to show the structure, construction, or appearance of something. (12 Dec 1998) |
| models, theoretical | Theoretical representations that simulate the behaviour or activity of systems, processes, or phenomena. They include the use of mathematical equations, computers, and other electronic equipment. (12 Dec 1998) |
