title: The nursing research committee.
abstract: Establishing a strong commitment to nursing research poses both rewards and challenges for nurse executives. The authors address the purpose and review process of the nursing research committee from the researcher's and reviewer's perspectives. A greater understanding of this process, its implications, and its benefits for nursing executives will further facilitate nursing research in the service setting.
