Özet

This study was performed in order to examine the relationship between the factors preventing nurses from using research results in their applications and decision-making strategies. The sample of this cross sectional and descriptive study consists of nurses (n = 241) who work at public and university hospitals who agreed to participate in the study. As data collection tools, 'Nurse Information Form', the 'The Barriers to Research Utilisation Scale', 'Decision Making Strategies Scale (DMSS)', and 'SociotropyAutonomy Scale' were used. As a result, it was found that the sociotropy (68.63 +/- 15.97) and autonomy (78.40 +/- 14.04) personality characteristics of the nurses were on a medium level, that they more commonly use the dependent decision-making strategy (24.80 +/- 2.75) and that they perceive above average obstruction (52.96 +/- 13.99) in transferring research results to application. When the correlations between the Sociotropy-Autonomy Scale, DMSS, and the Barriers to Research Utilisation Scale were examined, it was found that reasonable-systematic decision making sub-dimension score averages increased with increasing autonomy sub-dimension scores (p < 0.01). It was found that nurses perceive barriers to transferring research findings to practice above medium levels, that they mostly use the dependent decision strategy, and that they possess sociotrophy and autonomy at medium levels.
