MSN (Education): Empirical indicators are measurements in practice. Analyze your theory and practice model to develop testable empirical indicators. (Madeleine Leininger – The Transcultural Nursing Theory or Culture Care Theory). Explain the chosen empirical indicators by presenting them in the form of testable hypotheses or by explaining what data would result from testing them. Present a plan for how you will test the hypotheses or gather data in your practice setting.
