Subjects and Method: Descriptive cross-sectional study with an analytic element conducted for a period from the 1st of March through the 31st of May 2021. The target population included all family physicians in Iraq. A total of 297 participants were recruited for this study.

Applying multivariate binary logistic regression, the only significant association was between attitude and frequency of reading medical articles. Lack of time was the main stated barrier that obstacles to research conduction among family physicians. Conclusion: More than half of the participants had a positive attitude towards research conduction. Lack of time and health care support were the main barriers to research conduction. Increasing the frequency of research reading was the main predictor of research conduction.
