The nursing profession advocates development of theoretical knowledge as a basis for nursing practice and promotes preparation of graduate students as nursing scholars. This study explored the influence of selected factors on the publishing efforts of student authors who published in the Western Journal of Nursing Research during a 5-year period. Assignments, particularly for a dissertation, provided a significant impetus for publishing. Self-selection of a topic of interest also was an important factor. Approximately one third of the student authors had collaborated with faculty as coauthors. Graduate students make a significant contribution to the creation and dissemination of nursing knowledge. The influence of collaboration with faculty, the defining elements of collaborative mentorship, and inherent ethical issues should be investigated in future studies.
护理专业倡导将理论知识的发展作为护理实践的基础,并推动培养研究生成为护理学者。本研究探讨了特定因素对在5年期间于《西方护理研究杂志》上发表文章的学生作者发表成果的影响。作业,尤其是博士论文,为发表提供了重要动力。自主选择感兴趣的主题也是一个重要因素。约三分之一的学生作者曾与教员作为共同作者合作。研究生为护理知识的创造和传播做出了重大贡献。未来的研究应调查与教员合作的影响、合作指导的定义要素以及内在的伦理问题。
