“…Barriers and socio-demographic factors influencing nurses participation in and utilisation of clinical research in practice : The study revealed that insufficient time for nurses to read articles was associated with nurses' participation in research as it recorded a P-value of 0.04 at a 95% confidence interval. As studies from both Zimbabwe [ 17 ] and Singapore [ 18 ] show similar results, inadequate time may be a characteristic of nurses' work situation. Moreover, nurses' perception about research as not a nursing role was expressed in the qualitative interviews and also found to be statistically significant with a P-value of 0.04.…”

IntroductionScientific research results are a necessary base for high quality nursing practice. The level of implementation of research in the clinical setting, including nurses' participation in and knowledge of research results, have gained considerable attention internationally. However, the remarkable international increase of such studies does not apply to the Ghanaian context. We therefore set out to evaluate the degree of involvement of nurses in research, as well as their utilization patterns of research findings in Ghana. Objectives: the study sought to investigate the proportion of nurses involved in clinical research as well as barriers for nurses' participation and utilization of research findings, within the Kumasi Metropolis area, Ghana.MethodsA descriptive and analytical cross-sectional study design was used in this study. A 47 item questionnaire elicited data on 158 participants' demographics, the proportion and the barriers to participation, which was then analyzed using SSPS version 17 software. Qualitative interviews with key informants complemented quantitative survey data. In-depth interviews with nurse managers at the hospitals in focus was conducted and analyzed thematically.ResultsThe study shows that 36.1% of the nurses, included in the study, had participated in research and only 25.3% of these had (knowingly) used specific research results in clinical practice. However, the level of research participation differed greatly between nurses working at different hospitals. Nurses' participation in clinical research was shown to be associated with their perception of benefit of research to practice as well as their understanding of time as a factor for them engaging in reading scientific articles. In addition, barriers associated with nurses' integration of research findings into the daily practice was their perceived lack of support from the collegium and their perception of research as not part of the nursing role.ConclusionFindings from the study suggest that there is a need to create institutional support to facilitate and encourage nurses' participation in research, yet also to formalize nurses' continuous professional development. This, could change nurses' attitudes towards research, and contribute to improving health care as it would increase nurses' role as agents for evidence based clinical practice.

“…In this study, most nurses preferred skill-based workshops (61%) to learn research compared to online learning (25%) despite the relatively younger nurses in this study sample, this could be due to the 'hands-on,' contextualised approach to learning in nursing that is aligned with clinical practice that was identified in a recent study 20 done with a group of final semester nursing students. Hence, nurse educators should consider devising educational strategies to suit nurses' preferred learning styles especially when teaching research because it is a specialised topic and nurses have very limited experience and confidence to conduct research 21 .…”

Introduction:Nurses are encouraged to engage in research activities in order to stay abreast with the current nursing practice. However, limited knowledge about the research process may influence their level of involvement and utilisation of research in their daily nursing practices. This study examines Singapore nurses' perceived knowledge and educational needs in research as well as to explore their preferred mode and duration of education delivery.

Introduction: Sets up "attitude" as a disposition or a preparedness to act in a way anteposition the other in a positive or negative.Purpose: It is important to identify and analyze the diverse attitudes that are expressed by students and health professionals, before a methodical study. As such, it is expected to demonstrate that there is a relationship between attitudes towards scientific research and certain factors such as gender, age, the current situation, the level of schooling, whether or not health care, or not the educational supervisor and parents. Materials and methods:The sample comprised 327 individuals, which are part of students and professionals in health in Portugal, through the questionnaire responses acquired "Face Attitudes to Scientific Research."Results: The females have more difficulty in understanding the concept of research (58%) in early ages, they are more concerned and aware than males. The higher the degree greater predisposition to investigate. The student-workers tend to have more difficulties. On the other hand, the guiding research projects and professionals in health care have fewer difficulties in the investigation. The parent with higher educational attainment has a direct impact on respondents.Conclusion: There is a relationship between attitudes towards research with some socio-demographic factors. Overall, males have a more positive attitude than women, the same happens in early ages. It was shown that the greater the degree of the respondent, the greater the ability in research.Keywords: Attitude; Scientific Research; Health Science. RESUMOIntrodução: Define-se "Atitude" como uma disposição ou ainda uma preparação para agir de uma maneira em anteposição a outra de forma positiva ou negativa.
