With the expansion of scientific information, and the beginning of evidence-based practice (EBP), embracing "evidence-based information-seeking behaviors" is essential to provide effective up-to-date nursing care. To better support students' evidence-based information-seeking behaviors, this study explores how nursing students actually search and identify evidence-based information.
A concurrent think aloud technique was employed in which 12 nursing students were asked to verbalize their thoughts whilst using search engines to find EBP to inform their practice.
In general, searching literature per se is complex and many different searching activities are employed, including triggering, recalling, scanning, linking, accessing, retrieving, relating, extracting, evaluating and referencing. The search behavior may involve some iteration of the cyclical activities of scanning, linking and accessing. It is believed that background (recalling pre-existing knowledge), assessing relevancy, evaluating and referencing are pertinent to evidence-based practice information-seeking behavior. In view of this, the study proposes a new model of evidence-based information-seeking behaviors.
This study presents an evidence-based information-seeking behavior model based on a number of identified searching features. Results may have important practical implications for nursing educators.
随着科学信息的不断扩展以及循证实践（EBP）的兴起，采用“循证信息检索行为”对于提供有效的最新护理服务至关重要。为了更好地支持学生的循证信息检索行为，本研究探讨了护理专业学生实际如何搜索和识别循证信息。
采用同步有声思维技术，让12名护理专业学生在使用搜索引擎查找循证实践信息以指导其实践时说出自己的想法。
总体而言，文献检索本身很复杂，会采用许多不同的检索活动，包括触发、回忆、浏览、链接、访问、检索、关联、提取、评估和引用。检索行为可能涉及浏览、链接和访问等循环活动的一些迭代。据信，背景（回忆已有知识）、评估相关性、评估和引用与循证实践信息检索行为相关。有鉴于此，本研究提出了一种新的循证信息检索行为模型。
本研究基于一些已识别的检索特征提出了一种循证信息检索行为模型。研究结果可能对护理教育工作者具有重要的实际意义。
