Cited in Scopus: 0Background: Recruitment of faculty to colleges of nursing who represent ethnic, racial, and geographic diversity is critical to preparation of a culturally competent nursing workforce and development of nurse scientists to address issues of health disparities. The lack of doctorally-prepared faculty from minority backgrounds and rural locations prevents realization of this goal. Barriers to pursuit of PhD education are prevalent in minority and rural nurses: family obligations that preclude long commutes or relocation, requirements for full time study, need to maintain employment during doctoral study, lack of geographic access to programs with the desired research focus, and reticence to commit to loan programs to finance doctoral study in light of the faculty salary levels that commonly are less than clinical salaries. - AAN news & opinion

Cited in Scopus: 44The importance of evidence-based practice (EBP) has been widely discussed in the literature.1-7 Defined as “the integration of best research evidence with clinical expertise and patient values,”8 its incorporation into healthcare processes has been emphasized by accrediting bodies, government agencies, professional organizations, healthcare systems, and payers, among others. Today's incredible need for current information for practice, the knowledge from research9 that nurses practice based on what they learned in nursing school, the inadequacy and/or often outdated nature of usual information resources, time pressures, and the presence of the Internet and World Wide Web are all influencing factors in the pressure to conduct EBP.
