Abstract
The life history is presented as a tool for the identification of human patterning and as a process of nursing intervention for the promotion of health through expansion of consciousness. The life history process is presented in a pilot study involving a selected sample of eight persons aged 65. Qualitative study findings were interpreted through integration of two theoretical perspectives on patterning. Recommendations for further study are made that will increase the validity and reliability of life history as a measure of patterning and increase the ability to generalize study findings.
