Disseminating nursing research in English is always a difficult task when English is
not a primary language. In the case of Spanish nurses, the literature suggests that
while nurses are starting to get used to the idea of delivering presentations in
English, they still find it a more difficult process than writing for publication. The
aim of this research was to better understand how nurses view presenting in
English from two perspectives: both as presenters and as listeners. In addition, we
also wanted to find out how nurses approach the task of giving presentations in
English and what assistance they need with these presentations, in both the
preparation and the performance stages. The study follows a micro-ethnographic
approach based on a questionnaire and selected follow-up interviews. Participants
were working as nurses and/or in higher education as nursing lecturers, and all of
them had participated in international academic conferences as speakers or
attendees. The results provide a view of the dissemination of nursing research in
Spain and give a more accurate picture of how the presentation of nursing research
in international forums is still in its infancy. Our findings will also be useful for
teaching purposes. [-]
