“…This could suggest that nursing research is moving forward and is regarded as more relevant for clinical nurses. Through recent years a positive change has been seen in nurses' attitudes towards research (Akerjordet et al, 2012;Higgins et al, 2010) and there is a growing need for basic learning and an interest in increasing knowledge about research utilization (Chan et al, 2011). Although the majority of the nurses participating in our survey stated an interest in nursing research, the general interest among the total number of nurses invited to participate from the orthopaedic department was disappointingly low, since only 43 out of 87 nurses participated.…”

“…Although clinical nurses are predominantly portrayed as having a positive attitude to research, many studies conducted on their utilization and participation in nursing research focus on the nurses' self-perceived barriers and deficiencies with respect to pursuing research in the clinical setting (Adamsen et al, 2003;Akerjordet et al, 2012;Breimaier et al, 2011;Brown et al, 2010;Carlson and Plonczynski, 2008;Chan et al, 2011;Higgins et al, 2010;McMaster et al, 2013;Roxburgh, 2006). Breimaier et al (2011) conducted a selfreport questionnaire study of 1023 Austrian hospital nurses, and found three main barriers to research utilization to be lack of time (70%), lack of information and/or knowledge (46%) and lack of interest (26%).…”

Background: Research competencies across nurses' career stages have not been adequately explored. Yet, research skills to appraise, synthesize, and implement research findings are required for evidence-based practice.Purpose: To explore the literature on registered nurse research competencies; to identify core competencies (i.e., knowledge, skills, and attitudes), research capacity-building activities, strategies and recommendations to strengthen nurses' research capacity; and to propose a conceptual developmental framework of nurse research competencies. Methods:As part of a larger project titled "Health Services Researcher Pathway", with the consultation of a health sciences librarian, we conducted an integrative literature review drawing on relevant publications. The PubMed (Medline), CINAHL, Web of Science and ProQuest Dissertations and Theses databases were searched from 2000 to 2012. From the revealed publications (n=1012), only 22 articles were relevant to nurse research competencies. Findings:The key themes cited in the literature reviewed include models and partnerships for building and developing competencies for research production (rather than utilization), and educational strategies and recommendations for interventions to provide confidence in evidence-based practice including research utilization and in clinical decisionmaking. According to the five-step evidence-based practice model (i.e., formation of answerable research questions, literature search and retrieval of the best available evidence, critical appraisal of the evidence, application of research findings into practice, and evaluation of performance based on the outcomes), we propose a framework for a nurse researcher pathway that may contribute to two research competency streams: for research users and research producers. The important area of research users is open for further research, since scarce literature exists. Conclusions:The proposed conceptual developmental framework for a nurse researcher pathway includes essential steps toward evidence-based practice in healthcare that have implications at the micro-level (nurse), mesolevel (organization), and macro-level (society). Our work continues to pilot and refine a nurse researcher pathway and its associated competencies.

“…Nevertheless, it is apparent there are barriers to nurses incorporating EBP into their everyday clinical practice. [38][39][40][41] In part, this is attributed to a lack of knowledge. As a result, academic institutions and hospitals are focusing on continuing EBP education.…”

Objective: A validated survey tool that concisely measures nurses' values, knowledge and implementation of evidence-based practice (EBP) is needed to develop needs-based curricula for continuing nurse education. Purpose: Develop a succinct measurement instrument, the Quick-EBP-VIK, assessing nurses' values, implementation and knowledge of EBP, to establish face and content validity. Methods: In Phase I-Review of the existing literature to establish topic domains, developed and refined questions. Phase II established face validity, and Phase III content validity using EBP experts as raters. Results and conclusions: Twenty-five questions met the clarity and relevance criteria with content validity indices of > 0.80. Questions were critically evaluated by EBP experts from both academic and clinical settings across the country for relevance and clarity and revised when indicated. The use of EBP experts and content validity indices resulted in a final survey instrument, measuring nurses' values, knowledge and implementation of EBP.
