The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate the validity and reliability of an instrument to measure nurse manager competencies regarding evidence-based practice (EBP). The Nurse Manager EBP Competency Scale consists of 16 items for respondents to indicate their perceived level of competency on a 0 to 3 Likert-type scale. Content validity was demonstrated through expert panel review and pilot testing. Principal axis factoring and Cronbach's alpha evaluated construct validity and internal consistency reliability, respectively. Eighty-three nurse managers completed the scale. Exploratory factor analysis resulted in a 16-item scale with two subscales, EBP Knowledge ( n = 6 items, α = .90) and EBP Activity ( n = 10 items, α = .94). Cronbach's alpha for the entire scale was .95. The Nurse Manager EBP Competency Scale is a brief measure of nurse manager EBP competency with evidence of validity and reliability. The scale can enhance our understanding in future studies regarding how nurse manager EBP competency affects implementation.
本研究的目的是开发并评估一种用于测量护士长循证实践（EBP）能力的工具的有效性和可靠性。护士长EBP能力量表由16个项目组成，受访者需在0至3的李克特量表上表明他们自我感知的能力水平。通过专家小组评审和预试验证明了内容效度。主轴因子分析和克朗巴哈系数分别评估了结构效度和内部一致性信度。83名护士长完成了该量表。探索性因子分析得出了一个包含两个子量表的16项量表，即EBP知识（n = 6项，α = 0.90）和EBP活动（n = 10项，α = 0.94）。整个量表的克朗巴哈系数为0.95。护士长EBP能力量表是一种对护士长EBP能力的简短测量工具，具有有效性和可靠性的证据。该量表能够增进我们在未来研究中对护士长EBP能力如何影响实施情况的理解。
