In 1972 the Report of the Committee on Nursing recommended that nursing should become a research-based profession. Although, it is acknowledged that research has made a significant contribution to the body of nursing theory since then, it has had little impact on clinical practice. The present study is a small exploratory survey to assess the attitudes and needs of qualified nurses working within mental health care settings concerning the use of research findings in practice. A total of 150 questionnaires were sent to trained nurses working within a defined geographical area in the south-east of England and 118 were returned, giving a response rate of 78%. The main findings suggest that although the vast majority of nurses in the study have a very positive attitude towards research, very few actually make significant use of research findings to enhance their clinical practice. Some of the variables that seem to contribute to this state of affairs are: lack of the necessary research appreciation skills to critically evaluate research findings and apply them in practice; not enough relevant research studies available in the clinical areas; and inadequate support from managers. However, most of the nurses in the study said that they would be involved with research activities if the time was provided for them to do so.
1972年，护理委员会的报告建议护理应成为一门以研究为基础的专业。尽管自那时以来，人们承认研究对护理理论体系做出了重大贡献，但它对临床实践的影响却微乎其微。本研究是一项小型探索性调查，旨在评估在精神卫生保健机构工作的合格护士对在实践中运用研究结果的态度和需求。总共向英格兰东南部一个特定地理区域内工作的受过培训的护士发放了150份问卷，回收了118份，回复率为78%。主要研究结果表明，尽管该研究中的绝大多数护士对研究持非常积极的态度，但实际上很少有人大量运用研究结果来改进他们的临床实践。导致这种情况的一些变量包括：缺乏批判性评估研究结果并将其应用于实践的必要研究鉴赏技能；临床领域中可用的相关研究不足；以及管理者的支持不够。然而，该研究中的大多数护士表示，如果有时间，他们会参与研究活动。
