Abstract:
Full-time R.T. educators were surveyed about perceived research needs and barriers and to determine whether educational level and type of employer influenced these perceptions. R.T. educators reported needs such as training in research, access to space, equipment, research funds and personnel to assist in research. Additionally, more than half of survey respondents perceived low levels of research support within their work environment and a lack of research time. An important finding in this study is that the majority of respondents believe that research is important to the profession; however, they also believe research negatively impacts their teaching and are unlikely to seek a position that emphasizes research.
