Promoting Research in Nursing

Abstract

Lacking well-developed objective measures, nursing education and practice-related knowledge, skills, and abilities are often measured using self-assessment tools. This session will report on a multi-site study of US nurses' EBP knowledge and the near zero correlation between self-reported and objectively measured EBP knowledge.

Lacking well-developed objective measures, nursing education and practice-related knowledge, skills, and abilities are often measured using self-assessment tools. This session will report on a multi-site study of US nurses' EBP knowledge and the near zero correlation between self-reported and objectively measured EBP knowledge.
