How important is the knowledge of the research process to you in your continued practice of nursing?
Research questioning the application of the research process within nursing professions argues that research findings are not appropriately being integrated into professional practice of nursing (Park & Bullocks, 2005). This is because the use of research has been poorly applied to practice (Rasool, 2005). Thompson et al (2005) argue that the transference of research knowledge to nursing practice has remained unclear and thus unfocused.
