Abstract

Indeed, the effectiveness of research depends on the satisfaction of the society needs. Evaluation of research barriers in any scientific field is essential for considering deficiencies and weaknesses of that approach. Hence, the purpose of this study was to determine the research barriers in education from the view point of faculty members of Jahrom University of Medical Sciences. In this cross-sectional study, Sample of the study consisted of 52 faculty members that have been randomly selected and assessed by a valid and reliable questionnaire. The completed questionnaires were gathered and Data analysis was done by student’s T, Chi square, and variance analysis tests and consequently showed the most important individual barriers in educational research were having more interest in teaching rather than research, not interesting in this research and more incentives in performing clinical researches. Organizational barriers included considering the educational research studies at the research secondary level, the lack of both characteristically tendency in performing and enough specialist in this field. Moreover, the mean of organizational barriers was lower than personal barriers (p<0.0001) andthere was a significant difference between the mean of organizational (63/1±9/02) and individual barriers (72/2± 9/9) and also both groups were essential barriers in educational research. Worth noting that beside them, individual barriers were more significant than organizational one. Finally, reducing these barriers by considering the research official’s managers is necessary and so far, it is highly recommended that conducting institutional committees for programming and resolving the problems is suggested.
