1 Nursing Research Collaboration Study You are invited to participate in a research study titled Academic-Clinical Research Collaboration Study. The purpose of this study is to understand the features of successful nursing research collaborations and, specifically, to identify facilitators and barriers to promoting research collaborations between academic institutions and clinical agencies. The survey is part of a two-phase data collection effort. We will first survey leaders at AACN-member Schools/Colleges to report on their research collaborations with clinical agencies. We will follow this by surveying clinical agencies for their perspectives on these research collaborations. This survey should be completed by an individual who is knowledgeable about the research activities of the School/College. Examples would be the school/collegiate Associate Dean for Research (ADR) or Dean, if no ADR exists, or a designee appointed by the ADR or Dean. Participation in this study includes completion of an online survey consisting of items. The exact number of items you will complete depends on the responses given. We estimate that the survey will take about 20 minutes. The survey items ask about your institution and its participation in research. Depending on how you respond to these questions, you may be asked to provide the name of the clinical agency with which you primarily collaborate. If you choose to provide a name of an agency, in the future we will send you an link to a second survey and ask that you share this link with a leader of your choosing at the clinical agency. We will ask the leader to inform us about their perspectives regarding the research collaboration. The link to the second survey will be sent in a follow up to you after you complete the current survey. If you choose not to provide the name of your collaborating agency, this will not affect your ability to complete the current survey. Your responses to this survey will not be shared with the individual completing the survey at the collaborating site. You will be asked to provide information over the Internet, which can be viewed by individuals who have access to the computers where the information is collected or stored and may be viewable by unauthorized persons. We will use a secure website to collect the study information and password-protected computers to store the study information. We will not collect your name in the survey. We will use a code and not your name or the name of your school to identify the
2 data. The study identification code will be linked to the name of your school but not to your name by the researchers. The list linking your school's name to its study identification code will be stored in a separate location that is accessible only to the researchers. The study is voluntary and a choice to not participate will result in no undue consequences. You may skip any questions you do not wish to answer. If you do not wish to participate in this study, simply close the survey web site and no data will be submitted or saved. If you decide to discontinue the survey after you have started it, you can simply close the survey and no data will be submitted or saved. If you have any questions or concerns, you can contact Dr. Ann Marie McCarthy at annmccarthy@uiowa.edu or If you have any questions about your rights as a research subject, please contact the Human Subjects Office, 105 Hardin Library for the Health Sciences, 600 Newton Rd, The University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA , (319) , or irb@uiowa.edu. We hope you will decide to participate in this research. Your consent to participate in this study is indicated by clicking "CONTINUE" below to begin taking the online survey. If you do not wish to participate, simply close the survey. Thank you for taking the time to consider this invitation to participate.
