“…Therefore, nurses who possessed master’s or doctorate degrees had a positive attitude and better knowledge and skills than those who possessed a bachelor’s degree. This was also confirmed in previous studies in the literature [ 7 , 16 , 23 , 26 , 37 , 39 ]. Nevertheless, a study conducted in Saudi Arabia surprisingly found that the level of education did not have a positive influence in terms of attitude, knowledge, and utilization [ 40 ].…”

“…According to the results of other research, it seems that nurses worldwide lack EBP readiness. Although there is a positive attitude and recognition of the significance of the value of EBP [ 21 , 22 , 23 ], on the other hand, there is a lack of competency, knowledge, and skills for the implementation of EBP [ 7 , 21 , 24 , 25 , 26 ]. In China, in 2019, a survey of manager nurses reported a positive attitude toward EBP but rarely implemented it due to a lack of knowledge [ 27 ].…”

Nurses’ competency toward evidence-based practice (EBP) has been extensively investigated by several studies worldwide. However, factors affecting the competence of Greek nurses working in the NHS have not been fully investigated in terms of EBP. Thus, this study aimed to explore the impact of the individual qualifications of nurses on their competence toward EBP. Data from 473 registered nurses working in 10 hospitals in the Greek National Health Service (NHS) were collected between October and December 2020 using a convenience sampling method in a cross-section design. The Greek version of the 35-item (five-point Likert scale) Evidence-Based Practice Competency Questionnaire for Professional Registered Nurses (EBP-COQ Prof) was used to assess the competence level of nurses, focusing on attitudes, skills, and knowledge, as well as the utilization of EBP in clinical practice. One-way ANOVA and Pearson coefficient tests were applied to compare the possible differences among variables (two or more groups) as appropriate. A multi-factorial regression model was applied to explore participants’ qualifications, including demographics (MSc degree, gender, English language knowledge, etc.) as independent variables, and to control for potential confounding effects toward EBP competency. The p-values < 0.05 were considered statistically significant. The mean age of the 473 participants (402 women and 71 men) was 44.7 ± 9.2 years old. The mean value of competence subscales was found as follows: attitudes 3.9 ± 0.6, knowledge 3.7 ± 0.6, skills 3.1 ± 0.8, and utilization 3.4 ± 0.7. A multivariate regression analysis revealed that associates of “Master’s degree” (t = 3.039, p = 0.003), “Writing an academic article” (3.409, p = 0.001), “Working in a University clinic” (2.203, p = 0.028), and “Computer Skills” (2.404, p = 0.017) positively affected “Attitudes”, “Knowledge”, “Skills”, and “Utilization”, respectively. The research data suggest that nurses working in the Greek NHS were limited in competence regarding EBP in comparison with other European countries. Therefore, vocational, educational, and training programs tailored to EBP enhancement are crucially important. This study was not registered.

“…The role of nurse managers is crucial in promoting EBP in healthcare institutions [42,51,52,54,[57][58][59], defining, at each management level or department, the policy and orientation of the respective services in terms of the quality and safety of nursing care [41,60], mainly through a collective team vision of the importance of adopting EBP [36,38,39].…”

This scoping review, conducted within the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) framework, analysed the recent literature (January 2018 to March 2023) addressing factors inherent to professional practice environments and organisational contexts influencing nurses’ adoption of evidence-based practice (EBP). This review included studies involving nurses regardless of sector, practice setting, and scope of practice. A systematic search was undertaken across the PubMed, Web of Science, CINAHL, and MEDLINE databases, as well as the EThOS, OATD, and RCAAP platforms. The extracted textual elements underwent a content analysis, resulting in a coding structure established through an inductive approach that categorised information into main categories and subcategories linked by similarity and thematic affinity. Forty-one studies were included, revealing four main categories of factors impacting EBP adoption by nurses: (1) organisational dynamics, (2) management and leadership, (3) teamwork and communication, and (4) resources and infrastructure. The study’s limitations acknowledge the subjective nature of categorisation, recognising potential variations based on individual perspectives despite adopting procedures to minimise the risk of bias. The results provide a substantial foundation for developing interventions to cultivate environments conducive to EBP adoption by nurses, thereby enhancing the integration of evidence into nurses’ professional practice contexts. This review was prospectively registered on the Open Science Framework (registration no. osf.io/e86qz).

“…Evidence-based implementation is defined as the utilization of EBP in clinical practice [6]. Previous research revealed that there is inadequate EBP implementation (EBPI) in nurses' daily clinical practices [7][8][9]. Studies have shown that strengthening nurses' beliefs about EBP can help them implement it.…”
