Personal Attributes Contributing to EBP Adoption by Nurses: Commitment, Empathy, and Reflection

Abstract

Evidence-based practice (EBP) has been deemed the gold standard in providing health care yet, the adoption of EBP by nurses has been challenging. Appreciating the literature from business and the neurosciences, this study sought to examine the effect of personal attributes: organizational commitment, empathy, and reflection on individual EBP adoption.
