Abstract
The attribution of self-blame for a negative physical health outcome can lead to further deterioration of one's mental and spiritual state. Using Walker and Avant's eight-step model for concept analysis, self-blame attribution is explored following the diagnosis of a human papillomavirus-related cancer in women. Conceptual case examples provide application of the concept to patient situations. Spiritual assessment tools for nurses caring for those who evidence self-blame are provided.
