Despite moderate research utilization knowledge, participants had a negative attitude and poor practice aligning with Rogers' theory that attitude influences the decision to adopt an innovation. While research utilization knowledge was significantly associated with improved practice, it did not influence attitude, nor did attitude impact practice. This shows a significant disparity between respondents' knowledge and practice highlighting a gap between knowledge and practice. Therefore, targeted interventions, including continuous professional development and institutional support, are essential to enhance research utilization knowledge, foster positive attitudes, and improve practice. Further research is needed to explore the underlying factors influencing research utilization in nursing and midwifery.
