This article has presented examples from nursing research with chronically mentally ill clients that illustrate problems with utilization of nursing research in this field. Obstacles to utilizing research in clinical practice include (a) difficulty in identification of treatment goals; (b) difficulty in measurement of treatment outcomes; (c) diversity of psychotherapeutic interventions; (d) attrition of clients over a relatively short period of time; and (e) variation among clients with regard to degree of impairment, response to medication, and social support. These problems were examined using the criteria described by Fawcett (1982) for utilization of research findings: scientific merit, clinical relevance, and clinical evaluation. Limitations for utilizing findings from research with the chronically mentally ill were illustrated in the areas of scientific merit and clinical evaluation. However, studies of the chronically mentally ill and their treatment showed definite clinical relevance, indicating the need for further research with the chronically mentally ill.
