To make the present study congruent to the foregoing theories, the

researchers design the conceptual framework as shown in Figure 2.

Input includes the demographic profile of the respondents, challenges of 2nd

year nursing student on transition from theory to practice, effects of Theory-
Practice Gap: Challenges of 2nd year Nursing student on transition from theory to
practice, association between the challenges and effects of THEORY – PRACTICE
GAP: Challenges of 2nd Year Nursing Students on Transition from theory to
practice, and intervention program that can be proposed to bridge the gap between
theory and practice.

Process includes preparation of draft questionnaire, validation of research,

randomly choosing of respondents through stratified sampling, and data gathering
procedure through questionnaire.

Output comprises preparing 2nd year Nursing Student for the dynamic
changes that will occur over time, help individuals adjust and adapt in therapeutic
situations, and increase their knowledge, abilities, and attitude.
