“…Group dynamics at the level of the practice setting also appear to play an important role and studies of the role of "collective efficacy" (as recently used in nursing research 36,37 ) may provide useful insights for disseminating the IDNT.

Rates of adopting the International Dietetics and Nutrition Terminology (IDNT) are increasing; however, many hurdles persist. Low knowledge, motivation, and authority are often cited as reasons for nonimplementation of the IDNT. In a sample of motivated, knowledgeable, relatively empowered registered dietitians, no demographic characteristics and few individual level characteristics were associated with the IDNT use. Organizational and relationship factors predominated as predictors of IDNT use. Having colleagues who use the IDNT, expressing positive comments about the IDNT, and funding those who are committed to promoting the IDNT all increase the likelihood of IDNT use while time restrictions and organizational barriers limit the IDNT use.

“…Nursing research courses in academic institutions [6,21] resulted in nurse reports of improved knowledge and skills in evidence-based practice. Other evidence indicates that completing a research-related course is associated with positive attitudes towards research [28].…”

“…However, the most common intervention mentioned in the literature for improving research utilization is education. Several authors describe educational programs and activities to enhance research knowledge and skills of knowledge translation [6,[13][14][15][16][17] as a form of organizational support for evidencebased practice [18,19]. These educational interventions are thought to strengthen research competencies [19,20] and provide research literacy, understanding of the literature, critical assessment of research findings and confidence in decision-making on the clinical usefulness of evidence [21].…”

“…Thus, registered nurses need to achieve research competencies as they engage with evidence throughout their careers and as they generate new knowledge to guide practice. Equally, clinical nurses and nurse researchers need to learn to apply the best available evidence to their practice in order to influence patient, care provider, and system outcomes such as quality, cost-efficient, and cost-effective healthcare delivery [5,6].…”

Health Services Researcher Pathway For Registered Nurses: An Integrative Literature Review

Background: Research competencies across nurses' career stages have not been adequately explored. Yet, research skills to appraise, synthesize, and implement research findings are required for evidence-based practice.Purpose: To explore the literature on registered nurse research competencies; to identify core competencies (i.e., knowledge, skills, and attitudes), research capacity-building activities, strategies and recommendations to strengthen nurses' research capacity; and to propose a conceptual developmental framework of nurse research competencies. Methods:As part of a larger project titled "Health Services Researcher Pathway", with the consultation of a health sciences librarian, we conducted an integrative literature review drawing on relevant publications. The PubMed (Medline), CINAHL, Web of Science and ProQuest Dissertations and Theses databases were searched from 2000 to 2012. From the revealed publications (n=1012), only 22 articles were relevant to nurse research competencies. Findings:The key themes cited in the literature reviewed include models and partnerships for building and developing competencies for research production (rather than utilization), and educational strategies and recommendations for interventions to provide confidence in evidence-based practice including research utilization and in clinical decisionmaking. According to the five-step evidence-based practice model (i.e., formation of answerable research questions, literature search and retrieval of the best available evidence, critical appraisal of the evidence, application of research findings into practice, and evaluation of performance based on the outcomes), we propose a framework for a nurse researcher pathway that may contribute to two research competency streams: for research users and research producers. The important area of research users is open for further research, since scarce literature exists. Conclusions:The proposed conceptual developmental framework for a nurse researcher pathway includes essential steps toward evidence-based practice in healthcare that have implications at the micro-level (nurse), mesolevel (organization), and macro-level (society). Our work continues to pilot and refine a nurse researcher pathway and its associated competencies.

“…Lack of time, research knowledge, experience, and support, among others, are most commonly cited as inhibitory factors for nurses (Atkinson, Turkel, & Casby, 2008;Edwards, Webber, Mill, Kahwa, & Roelofs, 2009;Purkis, Jackson, Hundt, & Stockman, 2008;Schoonover, 2009). Far less information is available, however, to guide and support nurses through the research process (Curry, Alminde, Bloom, & Cramsie, 2008;Gawlinski, 2008;Swenson-Britt & Reineck, 2009).…”
