Abstract
A survey of physiatrists' views of conducting research yielded 550 usable returns, a response rate of 44%. Respondents were virtually unanimous in indicating that research is important for the continuing development of physical medicine and rehabilitation. However, 58% reported devoting no time to research, and only 2% were spending more than 25% time in research. The two most frequently cited barriers to greater research involvement were a lack of funding and insufficient equipment, facilities and assisting personnel. The most preferred means of supplementing research skills were collaboration or consultation with other rehabilitation professionals conducting research.
