Abstract The current study is a cross-sectional exploratory semiquantitative study conducted at universities, governmental and non-governmental research organizations to which the interviewed researchers were affiliated. It aimed to explore the attitudes and perspectives of researchers towards the use and impact of research in the performance of the health sector in Egypt. Our findings in the current study showed that lack of communication between researchers and policymakers and lack of funds allocated to the research process represent the most important hindering factors for the use of research results in evidence-based policy making. The study recommended that innovative ways of knowledge sharing between researchers and policymakers and increasing funds allocated for health research are the most important facilitating factors for utilization of research results in evidence-based policymaking. |
