“…Position of authorsh ip is often indicative of leadership and responsibility for the research. An analysis of authorship not only provides an opportunity to compare data from the Atkins (1990) article, but is the most feasible way to measure collaboration among nurses and across other disciplines. Although being included in this review meant an article had to have at least one nurse author, the proportion of various placements were measured:…”

“…A possible explanation for the unusually low percentage of research articles in 1995 could be the frequent number of issues devoted to special topics. Atkins (1990) reported an average of fewer than 1 research article per issue was published in the AAOHN Journal. This study shows an average of 1.22 research articles per issue were published during the subsequent 10 year period.…”

“…Lusk (1997; reviewed worksite health prom otion and disease prevention research reported from 1990 to 1995, but found only a small proportion of these studies were conducted by nurses. Atkins ( 1990 ) published a descripti ve study anal yzing the state of occ upational health nursing research in an array of journals, both nursin g and mult idisciplinary, from June 1984 to June 1989 . Becau se no review has been published since then , a current study analy zing occup ational health nursing research is both timely and essential.…”

“…Rogers (1989a) andRogers (2000. Atkins (1990), rather than just one publication, the current analysis offers occupational nurses a benchmark for measuring research activity in the official professional journal. A thorough descriptive analysis can determine if the research published in the AAOHN Journal meets the research priorities established by the profession.…”

Occupational health nursing research contributes to the scientific knowledge base, shapes practice guidelines, lends credibility to the profession, and ultimately benefits worker health and work settings. This descriptive study reviewed occupational health nursing research published from January 1990 through December 1999 in the AAOHN Journal. A single investigator reviewed all articles published during the 10 year period to determine if they qualified for inclusion by applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. During the 10 year period, a total of 577 articles were published in the AAOHN Journal (the official journal of the American Association for Occupational Health Nurses) with 146 (25.3%) considered to be reports of research. Cumulatively, 261 RNs were authors of the research articles. Of the 146 research articles, 88% addressed the National Occupational Research Agenda (NORA) priorities, 60% addressed the 1989 AAOHN priorities, and 65% addressed the 2000 AAOHN priorities. Occupational health nursing research is performed primarily by graduate and postgraduate level nurses working either alone or with nurse co-investigators. The occupational health nursing research articles addressed NORA priorities often. How

Bibliometric research has risen in popularity during recent years and an increasing number of investigations now have examined the nursing literature. Our article provides a comprehensive overview of citation-based research in the nursing profession, as well as a discussion of bibliometrics, journal impact factors, and international publishing trends. The debate on evidence-based practice and its potential influence and relevance for nursing scholars is also covered. Although journal performance indicators are, no doubt, important for the contemporary nursing academic, it is the core research skills and attributes that nursing scholars, academics, and educators will need to consider more carefully in future if the next generation of professional nurse researchers is to truly flourish.
