Abstract
Background: Evidence - based practice (EBP) has not only emerged as a trend but has also established itself as a standard in nursing professional practice. Consequently, it is imperative that undergraduate nursing students are proficient in EBP before graduation. This study aims to evaluate nursing students’ competencies (knowledge, skills, and attitudes) in EBP.
Methods: 230 nursing students participated in the cross - sectional study. Data were collected using the “EvidenceBased Practice Competencies Questionnaire” (EBP - COQ), which was translated into Vietnamese.
Results: The average score of nursing students on the EBP - COQ was 3.56 ± 0.39. Among the components, attitude had the highest score, with 3.77 ± 0.45, followed by knowledge with a score of 3.38 ± 0.53, and skills with the lowest score of 3.27 ± 0.52.
Conclusions: The competency of nursing students regarding EBP was found to be good. The results of the study provide valuable insights that can assist nursing educators in guiding their teaching of EBP for nursing students.
