Abstract
This study investigated incentives and barriers to precepting nurse practitioner students. Four hundred fifty-three providers from multiple settings, self-identified as qualified to precept, responded to the Web-based survey. The 64-item survey developed by the authors assessed the degree of incentive on 40 items and the influence of 17 additional factors. The leading barriers were time factors and productivity demands. The most highly rated incentives were credit toward professional recertification, program information, access to clinical references, and remuneration. Influential factors depending on the site or circumstances were professional obligation, learning opportunities, and prior relationship with faculty or student. Recognition and gifts were the lowest rated incentive factors.
