统计学知识是护理教师在教学和科研中必不可少的。在讨论护理研究的教学角色时，护理教师面临着统计概念和统计方法的应用。基本的统计概念的知识是必要的，使护理教师能够理解和批判性地评价文献。本研究的目的是评估护理教师的基本统计概念的知识。一个概率样本与7.7%的响应率产生了参与164护理教师从26所认可的学校。结果显示，大多数教师（91.5%）阅读同行评议的健康相关的科学期刊文章。护理人员平均正确回答了8个统计知识问题中的5.1个（SD = 1.6）。问题概念包括随机化（43.3%正确），解释置信区间（42.7%）和比值比（33.5%）。本研究的结果可用于改善未来护理教师的统计学教育和培训，并加强护理教师进行研究的奖学金。金，M.，Schwartz，T.

Statistics knowledge is essential for nursing faculty in both teaching and research roles. In the teaching role when discussing nursing research, nursing faculty are confronted with statistical concepts and statistical methods applications. Knowledge of fundamental statistical concepts is needed so that nursing faculty can understand and critically evaluate the literature. The purpose of this study was to assess nursing faculty knowledge of fundamental statistical concepts. A probability sample with a 7.7% response rate yielded participation from 164 nursing faculty from 26 accredited schools. Results showed that most faculty members (91.5%) read peer-reviewed health-related scientific journal articles. On average, nursing faculty answered 5.1 (SD = 1.6) out of 8 statistical knowledge questions correctly. Problematic concepts included randomization (43.3% correct), and interpreting a confidence interval (42.7%) and odds ratio (33.5%). The results of this study may be used to improve statistics education and training for future nursing faculty and strengthen scholarship for nursing faculty conducting research.Cite this article: Hayat, M.J., Kim, M., Schwartz, T.A., & Jiroutek, M.R.
