“…In nursing research, the main focus on individual factors associated with nurses’ practice of EBP and research use (which is a major component of EBP) has been on attitudes towards research and EBP [9,34]. Some researchers have used cognitive theories in implementation research, especially for exploring the concept of capability beliefs and how it links to EBP among nurses [13,18,35]. However, to develop accurate interventions or educational methods to enhance nursing students’ and nurses’ capability beliefs regarding EBP, we believe there is a need for a more complete utilization of the conceptual framework of capability beliefs.…”

BackgroundEvidence-based practice (EBP) is emphasized to increase the quality of care and patient safety. EBP is often described as a process consisting of distinct activities including, formulating questions, searching for information, compiling the appraised information, implementing evidence, and evaluating the resulting practice. To increase registered nurses’ (RNs’) practice of EBP, variables associated with such activities need to be explored. The aim of the study was to examine individual and organizational factors associated with EBP activities among RNs 2 years post graduation.MethodsA cross-sectional design based on a national sample of RNs was used. Data were collected in 2007 from a cohort of RNs, included in the Swedish Longitudinal Analyses of Nursing Education/Employment study. The sample consisted of 1256 RNs (response rate 76%). Of these 987 RNs worked in healthcare at the time of the data collection. Data was self-reported and collected through annual postal surveys. EBP activities were measured using six single items along with instruments measuring individual and work-related variables. Data were analyzed using logistic regression models.ResultsAssociated factors were identified for all six EBP activities. Capability beliefs regarding EBP was a significant factor for all six activities (OR = 2.6 - 7.3). Working in the care of older people was associated with a high extent of practicing four activities (OR = 1.7 - 2.2). Supportive leadership and high collective efficacy were associated with practicing three activities (OR = 1.4 - 2.0).ConclusionsTo be successful in enhancing EBP among newly graduated RNs, strategies need to incorporate both individually and organizationally directed factors.

“…Lee and Ko (2010) found a relationship between self-efficacy and individual-level variables and group-level variables in a sample of staff nurses. Chang and Crowe (2011) performed preliminary testing of psychometric properties of two new instruments to measure RNs' selfefficacy and outcome expectancy in regard to evidencebased practice. A moderate level of self-efficacy was noted along with moderate evidence-based practice understanding and outcome expectations.…”

“…However, although the literature has addressed the clinical question of the relationship of high self-efficacy as a predictive characteristic of staff RNs and student nurses in specific clinical situations (Chang & Crowe, 2011;Cheraghi et al, 2009;Lee & Ko, 2010;Manojlovich, 2005aManojlovich, , 2005bTyler et al, 2012), with additional pressure for non-baccalaureateprepared RNs to pursue higher educational preparation, it is not clear how self-efficacy affects their success. A strong sense of self-efficacy allows for perseverance with goals despite obstacles along the way.…”

The last decade has brought about a synergy of influences for registered nurses to advance their academic preparation. Literature indicates that there is correlation between self-efficacy and goal establishment and success. The purpose of this project was to evaluate the relationship between self-efficacy and advancing academic aspirations of registered nurses. Findings indicated that there was a trend toward a difference in the self-efficacy of nurses who began their career with a diploma or associate degree and went on for academic advancement and those who did not.

“…The strength of the present study is the systematic application of frameworks such as the KTA, TDF and the BCW in planning the implementation of the new model of care. Use of theory and frameworks has been shown to be more effective than projects based on intuition . Furthermore, strengths include the structured approach to implementation of evidence‐based guidelines in service development, which allows for future research, wider collaboration and assistance in streamlining services.…”

Aim To establish an evidence‐based dietetics service in an in‐centre haemodialysis unit utilising implementation science. Methods The service was developed through the Knowledge‐to‐Action Framework. The steps of the Action Cycle were addressed through a literature review, identification of evidence‐based guidelines, benchmarking and local staff engagement. The theoretical domains framework (TDF) was used to identify barriers/enablers, and behaviour change wheel to determine appropriate interventions. To monitor, evaluate outcomes and assess sustained knowledge use we employed multidisciplinary team engagement and database use. Audit data were collected at baseline, 6 and 12 months on nutrition assessment (Patient‐Generated Subjective Global Assessment), intervention timeliness and alignment to dietetic workforce recommendations. Descriptive statistics, McNemar tests and a linear mixed model were applied. Results Barriers existed in the knowledge, skills, environmental context and resources TDF domains. Suitable interventions were identified with training on nutritional management of haemodialysis patients delivered to 148 nurses, and nutrition management recommendations summarised into local procedural resources. A database to prompt and monitor outcome measures was created and indicated that over 18 months post‐service commencement, eligible patients received nutrition assessment at least 6‐monthly, aligning with recommendations. Prevalence of malnutrition was 28% (n = 9/32) at baseline, 23% (n = 5/22) at 6 months and 20% (n = 4/20) at 12 months (P = 0.50). Conclusions We demonstrated benefits to service development and implementation with implementation science providing a structured and methodical approach to translating guidelines into practice. Development of training, resources and prompts for outcome measures has supported the establishment of an evidence‐based dietetics service in a haemodialysis unit.

Validation of Scales Measuring Self‐Efficacy and Outcome Expectancy in Evidence‐Based Practice

Abstract: While further investigation of the validity of these tools is needed, preliminary testing indicates that the SE-EBP and OE-EBP scales are valid and reliable instruments for measuring health professionals' confidence in the process and the outcomes of basing their practice on evidence.
