Abstract
This analytical-cross-sectional study aims to determine the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of nursing students receiving postgraduate education regarding evidence-based nursing. The study was carried out between 1 March 2021 and 31 August 2021 with 115 students who received postgraduate education in different departments of nursing. The data of the study were collected using a questionnaire and the students’ knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors regarding evidence-based nursing scale. Number, percentage, standard deviation, t-Test, and ANOVA test were used in the analysis of the data. It was determined that 87.8% of the students took scientific research courses, 94.8% knew to do a literature review, and 81.7% followed scientific journals related to their field. While 60% of the students took evidence-based practices course, 53% had difficulty in reaching evidence-based practices. The students’ knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors regarding evidence-based nursing scale mean score was found to be 71.93±12.14. The study had found that the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors regarding evidence-based practices of the students who received postgraduate education in the field of nursing were at a good level. It has been determined that the students are willing to do scientific research and follow the scientific literature. Keywords: evidence-based practice, nursing education, postgraduate education
