ResumoHierarchical cluster analysis was used to construct a three level taxonomy of nursing interventions. The top level consists of six domains; the second level consists of 26 classes; and the third level consists of 357 interventions. The taxonomy is the organizing framework for the recently published Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC). This article reports the research done to construct the taxonomy and advantages for its use. The taxonomy has applications for clinicians, educators, scholars and health policy makers.
