Abstract
In 2003 the "discourse of science ", which developed while establishing nursing-research in Germany, was investigated by the Hessian Institute of Nursing Research. Ten narrative interviews with nurse scientists who particurlarly participated in this discourse were conducted. The interviews were analysed by means of a qualitative content analysis. Then the interviewees were, according to their respective opinions and attitudes, divided into different groups, representing four ideal type categories. The analytical evaluation of these interviews demonstrated that there are common aspects in the careers of the interviewed, which are above all caused by the structural and institutional conditions of nursing. However, differences regarding the patterns of attitude and principles towards the discourse of science were identified also.
