An online data analysis tool SPSSAU was adopted to conduct descriptive analysis, correlation analysis, and structural equation model construction. This study adhered to the STROBE guideline.Results: A total of 1025 valid questionnaires were collected in this survey. The leadership in nursing research of head nurses affected nurses’ innovation behavior via perceived barriers. The indirect effect accounted for 59.75% of the total response variance. Research motivation was identified as a moderator in the mediation model, revealing that leadership in nursing research did not significantly affect innovation behavior when nurses showed high motivation.Conclusion: Leadership in nursing research of head nurses and research motivation of junior nurses with master’s degree are crucial to enhancing nursing innovation behavior in the hospitals.Keywords: head nurse, research leadership, research barriers, research motivation |
