Abstract

This descriptive and cross-sectional study aims to examine the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of nursing students toward evidence-based nursing. The study was carried out between March 1 and March 15, 2023, with the participation of 196 students who were studying in the nursing department of the Faculty of Health Sciences of a university and volunteered to participate. The data were collected by using the questionnaire form prepared by the researchers in line with the literature and the Knowledge, Attitudes, and Behaviors of Students in Evidence-Based Nursing Scale. Arithmetic mean, standard deviation, median and frequency (percent) values, independent sample t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Walli’s test, and Spearman correlation analysis were used to evaluate the data. In this study, it was determined that the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of nursing students toward evidence-based nursing were not at the desired level. In line with the findings, it is recommended that evidence-based nursing should be included more in the nursing education curriculum.
 Keywords: Attitude; behavior; evidence; knowledge; nursing; student.
