Abstract/OtherAbstract:
In Nigeria, nurses are not considered to be sufficiently educated to understand the abc's of research methodology much less to participate in or conduct research. This lamentable fact was made at a conference on "The Role of Research in Nursing" in Nigeria. This was in 1973. Has the situation changed since? For lack of any study or documentation on the topic, and to be able to report on the status of nursing research in Nigeria for the ICN-sponsored Task Force on International Research meeting at end April-May, Rosaline Olade decided to conduct her own exploratory study. While the responses shed light on the situation in both Nigeria and the African region, they also sound only too familiar in countries where nursing is beginning to be recognized at the university level.
