Abstract

BACKGROUND Research forms an important part of clinical practice for nurses, midwives and allied healthcare professionals (NMAHPs). However, it is known there is a lack of confidence in this community in the development and use of research skills. The 4Ps Programme is a bespoke research-training programme that focuses on four areas: place, project, person and plan. AIM To report an evaluation of the 4Ps Programme that used a survey to record the confidence levels reported by NMAHPs. DISCUSSION An increase in participants' confidence was observed across all modules in the 4Ps Programme. This exceeded the standard deviation in the 'place' session, demonstrating genuine improvement. It was not possible to demonstrate a significant improvement in all cases. Low response rates affected the quality of the data obtained in the study, which would have benefitted from a more targeted approach to questions and better enabled the tracking of individuals' improvement over the course of the programme. CONCLUSION Participation in bespoke, targeted training related to research could lead to an increase in NMAHPs' confidence in research-related activities. Efforts need to be made to refine the evaluation approach and improve response rates. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE The 4Ps Programme can improve research-related confidence. Improved and further longitudinal evaluation will assess its impact in developing future clinical academics.

泰恩河畔纽卡斯尔医院 4Ps 计划对护士、助产士和专职医护人员研究技能发展的评估。

背景研究是护士、助产士和专职医疗保健人员（NMAHPs）临床实践的重要组成部分。然而，众所周知，这一群体在开发和使用研究技能方面缺乏信心。4Ps 计划是一项量身定制的研究培训计划，重点关注四个方面：地点、项目、人员和计划。讨论在 4Ps 计划的所有模块中均观察到参与者的信心有所增强。这超过了 "地点 "课程的标准偏差，显示出真正的改善。但不可能在所有情况下都显示出明显的改善。低回复率影响了研究中获得的数据质量，如果采用更有针对性的方法来提出问题，就能更好地跟踪个人在课程期间的进步情况。需要努力改进评估方法，提高回复率。改进和进一步的纵向评估将评估其对培养未来临床学者的影响。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
