The descriptive analysis, Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test, independent sample t-test, single factor analysis of variance, linear correlation analysis, multiple linear regression analysis were used to analyze the influencing factors of nurses' paper writing.Results A total of 1086 effective questionnaires were recycled. The differences of number of papers wrote by nurses who were different in hospital level, marital status, age, nursing age, work intensity, professional title, and final education were statistically significant (H=16.293, 206.350, 31.775, 56.393, 136.605, 484.600, 48.913;P<0.05). Hospital level, age, nursing age, marital status, professional title, and final education were all positively correlated with the number of papers (r=0.119, 0.161, 0.215, 0.410, 0.639, 0.093;P<0.01), while work intensity was negatively correlated (r= -0.367,P<0.01). The scores of five dimensions of factor hindering the thesis writing from high to low were lack of thesis writing skills (16.16±2.37), literature search obstacles (15.14±2.47), lack of statistical software operation (15.49±1.72), clinical sensitivity of problems identifying (14.63±2.74) and poor data collection methods (13.27±2.14). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that hospital level, professional title, nursing age and final education level were the main factors that impeded the writing of clinical nurses, which explained 93.1% of the total variation. The main thesis writing training needs were research topic selection and project design, paper writing methods and skill training, and hospital policy support.Conclusions Thesis writing number by Class Ⅲ hospital nursing staff was higher than that by Class Ⅱ hospital in He'nan Province.
