  abstract: This study was designed to determine the perceptions that registered nurses and registered respiratory therapists in the State of Texas had about themselves and one another.

The changes occurred for the following issues: competence, training, understanding and using of capabilities, encroaching on others' territory, being defensive about professional prerogatives, trusting professional judgm…
