Many nursing schools invest resources in offices to support research efforts and to strengthen research programs for external funding. This article will describe the resources available for research support in schools of nursing with doctoral degree-granting programs. Using a descriptive survey design, invitations and links to the online survey were sent to deans of nursing schools offering doctoral degrees as identified by the American Association of Colleges of Nursing. Response rate was 70.6% (120/170 eligible institutions), and 75% had a research office. Presence of a research office was associated with being in an academic health sciences center, being located in a public institution, and offering a doctor of philosophy (PhD) program. In 2009-2010, the average budget for the research offices was $390,000. Research offices were staffed by a director (88.6%), a grant administrator (78%), a statistician (74%), and a clerical staff (58.6%) and provided an array of services including grant support, scholarly support, and faculty development services. Nursing schools provided various support services for research productivity. Of those schools reporting that they had a research office, 59% had received National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding in the past year. Greater NIH funding was associated with those research offices employing more staff and offices existing for longer periods.
许多护理学校投入资源设立办公室，以支持研究工作并加强外部资助的研究计划。本文将介绍具有博士学位授予项目的护理学校的研究支持资源。使用描述性调查设计，向美国护理学院协会确定的提供博士学位的护理学校的院长发送了邀请和在线调查链接。回应率为 70.6%（170 个合格机构中的 120 个），75%的学校设有研究办公室。研究办公室的存在与以下因素有关：在学术健康科学中心，位于公立机构，以及提供哲学博士（PhD）课程。在 2009-2010 年，研究办公室的平均预算为 39 万美元。研究办公室配备了主任（88.6%）、拨款管理员（78%）、统计学家（74%）和文职人员（58.6%），提供了一系列服务，包括拨款支持、学术支持和教师发展服务。护理学校为研究生产力提供了各种支持服务。在报告设有研究办公室的学校中，有 59%在过去一年中获得了美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）的资助。更多的 NIH 资助与这些雇佣更多员工和存在时间更长的研究办公室有关。
