Background: Nursing research promotes quality care and is essential. Thus, it is important to acknowledge the main motivations and barriers that nursing professionals find in their work, the aim of this study was to establish the main aspects that motivate and make nursing research difficult, for nursing professionals; Methods: a descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out on 91 nursing professionals. A validated structured questionnaire composed of 42 items that defined five domains was used. Descriptive and bivariant analyses were performed; Results: the highest scores were obtained for the domain of Knowledge and Preparation (33.79 ± 3.38), while the domain of Available Resources and Support obtained lower mean values (22.60 ± 5.61). Significant differences were found in two domains: Knowledge and Preparation and Professional Development domains, when regarding the service in which the participants were working (p < 0.05); in the Available Resources and Support domain, when regarding sex (p < 0.05), in the Motivations domain, regarding the number of children (p < 0.05); Conclusions: nursing professionals show a positive attitude towards nursing research. The nurses find motivation in their work environment, in the economic incentives, or in the possibility to improve their curriculum vitae. The main barriers are the lack of time, the lack of institutional support, and the lack of training, especially in languages, such as English. These findings could be useful to design programs to overcome these barriers.
护理研究促进优质护理且至关重要。因此，认识到护理专业人员在工作中面临的主要动机和障碍很重要，本研究的目的是确定激励护理专业人员进行护理研究以及使其研究困难的主要方面；方法：对91名护理专业人员进行了描述性横断面研究。使用了一份经过验证的结构化问卷，该问卷由定义五个领域的42个项目组成。进行了描述性和双变量分析；结果：知识与准备领域得分最高（33.79±3.38），而可用资源与支持领域的平均值较低（22.60±5.61）。在两个领域发现了显著差异：当涉及参与者工作的服务时，知识与准备领域和专业发展领域（p<0.05）；在可用资源与支持领域，涉及性别时（p<0.05），在动机领域，涉及子女数量时（p<0.05）；结论：护理专业人员对护理研究表现出积极态度。护士们在工作环境、经济激励或改善简历的可能性中找到动力。主要障碍是时间不足、缺乏机构支持以及缺乏培训，尤其是在英语等语言方面。这些发现可能有助于设计克服这些障碍的项目。
