Essays on Expertise

In an organizational set up, expertise entails the skills, comprehension and attributes of employees or systems which make a distinction between them and the novices or the inexperienced personnel.

This explains the fact why individuals cannot have expertise in all aspects or functions that the organization is involved in. Thus, expertise is differentiated along the ...

In the discipline of nursing, professional advancement and development models are often used as frameworks for recognizing and acknowledging nurses’ clinical expertise, especially the nurses who provide direct care to patients (Gentile, 2012).

People can process information in a superficial or systematic way. Most advertisements aim to persuade the consumer to buy products by targeting the superficial processing function through heuristic cues (Smith & Mackie, 2007). However, the most effective advertisements are undoubtedly direct response ads (Agee & Martin, 2001). While those ads can potentially work best on impulsive buyers because of their use of heuristic cues, Agee and Martin (2001) point out that a majority of consumers are planned buyers, which means they logically consider the reasons for buying products that are given in the ad. That is why direct response ads target ...

Application of Benner’s Theory: from Novice to Expert

Introduction
In her theory titled From Novice to Expert, Dr. Patricia Benner introduced the idea that expert nurses gain the skills and comprehension of patient care not merely by undergoing a rigorous educational program but also by being exposed to a multitude of experiences. According to Dr. Benner (1984), one can gain the needed skills without ever learning the theory. Therefore, she proposes that the development of knowledge and skills in a pragmatic field such as nursing, calls for exposure to practical knowledge of clinical experience. Benner’s theory stresses on the importance of practical knowhow and proposes that ...

At times, attorneys ask therapists to provide information that they obtain from their patients as expert witness testimony in a number of their therapy patients litigations. The therapists include psychologists and other professionals in mental health. As a result, they end up providing inaccurate information in the court. Research has found that most attorneys do not understand the difference between forensic and therapeutic roles. Although the two parties may be dealing with the same patient/examinee, this does not justify a therapist proving both services to the same patient-litigant (Greenberg & Shuman, 2007, p.130) .Their roles are distinct based on ...
