title: Clinical nursing research priorities: a Delphi study.
abstract: Using the delphi technique, a group of clinical nurse specialists was surveyed regarding delineation of clinical nursing research priorities. Upon completion of the four-round survey, the results suggested that the top priorities for nursing research are: (1) factors which influence longevity in clinical nursing practice, (2) patient care delivery systems as related to nurse satisfaction, and (3) indicators of quality nursing care.
