The authors investigated how beliefs, self-care, and different factors are connected based on the above-mentioned population of women and Orem’s theory. In the article, the involved framework to guide the study was Orem’s Self-Care Deficit Nursing Theory. The framework offered different aspects to draw links and comparisons with the described population and associated factors. Selected Primary and Secondary sources 1)    Primary -Hart, M. A. (1995).

ly, 11(4), 167-171. Abstract Review Abstract Review of Primary Source – Hart (1995) conducted cross-sectional correlational research on a sample consisting of pregnant women. The obtained data was investigated using the path analytical technique. Prenatal care actions were noted to be significantly related to self-care agency. The findings offered support to the theory and influence practices in maternity nursing. Abstract Review of Secondary Source – Hart & Foster (1998) investigated to examine the concept of self-care agency within two selected groups via secondary analysis of data or ASA scores. The data was obtained from previously conducted studies. The secondary analysis approach renders the data and article as secondary as it was collected by another person. The self-care agency was denoted as a multidimensional aspect of the theory involving different factors. The second group was noted to have higher ASA scores influenced by factors of basic conditioning which form the theory.    References Hart, M. A. (1995).
