女权主义经济学家认为互惠是有偿和无偿护理工作的动机。一般来说，互惠性描述了人们以相似的方式回应对方，无论是恶意的还是有害的。护理的质量是潜在的增加时，护理关系的动机是积极的和普遍的形式的互惠和减少与消极形式的互惠。本研究借鉴了护理文献和两个定性研究，在澳大利亚住宅老年护理设施，在20023年和2009年进行，以确定一种新的形式，称为专业互惠。这种形式的互惠需要护士进行深思熟虑和熟练的关系工作，以促进与护理对象的相互和相互依存的交流，这对护理对象和护士都有利。这项研究认为，专业互惠，作为一种技能，可以教，是实现高质量的护理和工人的工作满意度的重要。
Feminist economists identify reciprocity as a motivation for both paid and unpaid caring work. In general, reciprocity describes people responding to each other in similar ways, either benevolently or harmfully. The quality of care is potentially increased when care relationships are motivated by positive and generalized forms of reciprocity and decreased with negative forms of reciprocity. This study draws on nursing literature and two qualitative studies in Australian residential aged care facilities, conducted in 20023 and 2009, to identify a new form called professional reciprocity. This form of reciprocity involves deliberate and skilled relational work by nurses to facilitate mutual and interdependent exchanges with care recipients that are beneficial to both care recipients and nurses. This study argues that professional reciprocity, as a skill that can be taught, is important for achieving quality care and workers' job satisfaction.
