Study Notes

Dorothy Johnson's Behavioral System Model

  • Dorothy Johnson (August 12, 1919 - February 4, 1999) developed the Behavioral System Model.
  • The model is based on 3 assumptions and consists of 7 subsystems of behavior:
      1. Adjustment
      1. Attachment
      1. Dependency
      1. Ingestion
      1. Elimination
      1. Sexuality
      1. Aggression
  • The model focuses on the goal of achieving a balance between the subsystems.

Structural Characteristics

  • The model has 4 structural characteristics:
      1. Goal
      1. Set
      1. Choice of behavior
      1. Behavior (action)

Nursing Process

  • The nursing process involves 4 stages:
      1. Assessment
      1. Diagnosis
      1. Planning and Implementation
      1. Evaluation
  • The model is used to diagnose behavioral problems, including:
      1. Insufficiency: a state where a subsystem is not functioning
      1. Discrepancy: behavior that does not meet the intended goal
      1. Incompatibility: conflicting goals or behaviors between subsystems
      1. Dominance: overuse of one subsystem regardless of the situation

Acceptance and Critique

  • The Behavioral System Model has been accepted by the nursing community
  • However, it has been criticized for its limitations and need for further development
