Nursing practice research and the advancement of nursing.
In this paper, the changing nature of nursing research is explored. Examples from nursing research in the field of cancer nursing are used to explore the notion of nursing being a research-based profession. It is argued that there are valid reasons for nurses to be interested not only in the findings of work done by others, but also in being directly involved in the research enterprise.
