title: A decade of nursing leadership research.
abstract: A review of the published nursing leadership research from 1983 to 1993 is presented. The review identifies three categories of research: predicting leadership, leadership development, and leadership effectiveness. Comparisons are made with a previous research review. Recommendations for future research include the relationship between leader and follower, comparison studies of leaders in multiple settings, further analysis of mentorship, continued qualitative analysis, and quantitative research utilizing established instruments. As the new leadership roles of nurse leaders emerge in health care reform, so will new issues for future research.
