Twenty years after the degree in nursing was introduced in Spain, the subject of evidence-based nursing is still unstructured and unestablished in most faculties. Moreover, there are hardly any rigorous studies at a national level that evaluate the current state of this competence in our faculties. Understanding the starting point is essential for the curricular design to ensure that evidence-based practice is implemented among future professionals.
To design and validate an evidence-based nursing competency questionnaire for fourth-year nursing students.
A specific questionnaire was developed and validated (EBE-ST). A cross-sectional survey design with psychometric validation of an instrument. Participants were 304 senior year nursing students from eight universities in Spain (2020).
The EBE-ST questionnaire is composed of 33 items that determine eight factors. It presents adequate reliability and validity (alpha = 0.882), measuring knowledge, attitudes and the practical application of evidence-based practice.
We have created an instrument with good psychometric properties to measure evidence-based practice competence among senior nursing students. The heterogeneity of knowledge regarding evidence-based nursing in our country suggests that further reflection is warranted on the incorporation of this topic during undergraduate training. We have designed and validated an evidence-based nursing competency questionnaire specific to nursing students.
在西班牙引入护理学位二十年后，大多数护理学院的循证护理学科仍然缺乏结构和基础。此外，几乎没有任何全国性的严谨研究来评估我们学院目前在这方面的能力状况。了解起点对于课程设计至关重要，以确保未来的专业人员能够实施循证实践。
为四年级护理学生设计和验证循证护理能力问卷。
开发并验证了一个专门的问卷（EBE-ST）。采用横断面调查设计，对工具进行心理测量学验证。参与者是来自西班牙八所大学的 304 名大四护理学生（2020 年）。
EBE-ST 问卷由 33 个项目组成，确定了 8 个因素。它具有良好的信度和效度（α=0.882），衡量了知识、态度和循证实践的实际应用。
我们创建了一种具有良好心理测量学特性的工具，用于衡量高年级护理学生的循证实践能力。我国在循证护理方面的知识存在异质性，这表明在本科培训中进一步考虑纳入这一主题是有必要的。我们设计并验证了一个专门针对护理学生的循证护理能力问卷。
