Abstract
Research is important in medical and dental sciences to improve healthcare. Faculties play an important role in research productivity and student motivation in research. The aim of this paper was to assess the attitude and experiences of dental post-graduate teachers toward article writing and reading and to discuss the barriers faced by them. A total of 150 dental post-graduate teachers from various Dental Colleges in South India participated as the study group. A questionnaire relating to publishing practices was distributed, and the results were analyzed. Majority of the study group (82%) were involved in the publication with many (48.4%) doing so for career progression. Journal prestige was the main reason for selection of journals. Lack of time was the main reason for those not involved in the publication. This study revealed the positive attitude of teachers toward scientific reading and writing. They only require motivation and time.
