Applying the Stetler-Marram model to a nursing administration problem: a graduate student learning experience

Research utilization models have not commonly been used in attempts to solve workplace problems using the results of nursing administration research. This paper describes a graduate learning experience in which the Stetler-Marram Research Utilization Model was applied to a fictitious case in nursing administration. In this case, the model was used to develop a research-based intervention to improve job satisfaction in a hospital setting.
