N/HMPs attitude to research and evidence-based medicine could also be a result of current educational provision in N/HMP, with a lack of commitment to developing research capacity and outputs [ 35, 47, 48].

If this were the case, a major improvement over current educational practice would be the inclusion early in the medical curriculum of assignments that can only be successfully concluded if visuo-spatial demands are met.
In our study, medical students gained significantly from the advice provided, suggesting that use of DDSS during specific diagnostic tasks (e.g. problem-based case exercises) might be a valuable adjunct to current educational strategies.

Efforts on a national level to improve current educational programs are required and it is necessary to develop appropriate educational programs targeted specifically to each group.
After adjustment of the background variables as well as current educational level, a statistically significant association was observed only between research evidence and age and between external sources of knowledge and number of years of nursing practice (Table 3).
