Abstract

Increasing numbers of nurses seek to undertake doctoral education as nursing continues to develop as a discrete area of clinical and theoretical scholarship. Effective supervision is a crucial aspect of doctoral education and has been identifi ed as essential to successful completion of doctoral training. Relatively little, however, is written about the relationship aspects of doctoral supervision in nursing. This paper presents some refl ections on doctoral education in nursing from the perspective of four people who have established intergenerational supervisory relationships.
