RODRIGUEZ-PUENTE, Linda Azucena  and  ALONSO-CASTILLO, María Magdalena. Theory of the Specific Situation of Self-transcendence in Persons Recovering from Alcohol Dependence. Aquichan [online]. 2016, vol.16, n.1, pp.15-23. ISSN 1657-5997.  https://doi.org/10.5294/aqui.2016.16.1.3.

The creation of nursing models and theories focused on specific phenomena contributes to the practice and development of the discipline of nursing. Objective: The purpose of this study is to present a theoretical derivation and propose a model on the theory of self-transcendence in persons recovering from alcohol dependence. Materials and methods: A theoretical derivation was done using the method proposed by Walker and Avant. Results: Adaption of the self-transcendence model in alcohol-dependent persons who are involved in a recovery process as part of Alcoholics Anonymous. Conclusions: The model can be useful in explaining how alcohol dependent persons, who are in treatment, achieve well-being and what are the influencing factors during the process

Keywords : Alcoholics Anonymous; self-transcendence; derivation.
