Abstract: 
Theories are a collection of connected ideas that provide an organized, explanatory, and predictive perspective of a phenomenon (an observable fact or event). Concepts, definitions, models, assertions, and assumptions form the basis of theories. They are derived using deductive and inductive reasoning as their two primary methodologies. Nursing thinkers use these two approaches. "A creative and rigorous structuring of ideas that projects an intentional, purposeful, and systematic view of phenomena" is what is meant by a theory. By putting together how ideas relate to each other, a theory lets you "describe, explain, predict, and control practice."
