Health social workers, like social workers in general, have been found to utilise research knowledge to a low degree. No previous study has made comparisons based on the following: higher education, job tenure and workplace. This article is based on statistical comparisons between 1236 health social workers in Sweden working in various healthcare contexts. The central finding was that higher education was the factor with the largest impact. Workplace and especially job tenure were found to be less influential. An implication for practice is to raise the knowledge requirements in terms of research knowledge utilisation already from bachelor’s degree level.

瑞典卫生社会工作者的研究知识利用：高等教育、工作年限和工作场所的影响

人们发现，卫生社会工作者与一般社会工作者一样，对研究知识的利用程度较低。之前的研究没有根据以下方面进行比较：高等教育、工作年限和工作场所。本文基于瑞典 1236 名在不同医疗保健环境中工作的卫生社会工作者之间的统计比较。主要发现是高等教育是影响最大的因素。工作场所，尤其是工作任期的影响力较小。对实践的影响是，从学士学位水平开始提高研究知识利用方面的知识要求。
