Abstract:
Objective To develop the Evidence-Based Health Care Related Competence Assessment Scale for Health Professionals(hereinafter referred to as the Scale),and to test its validity and reliability.Methods Based on the JBI evidence-based health care model as the theoretical framework,the initial items of the Scale were formed by reviewing the literature.Through the discussion of the research group,two rounds of Delphi expert consultation and pre-inspection,the items of the Scale were optimized.The convenience sam-pling method was adopted to extract 928 health professionals as the research subjects.The Scale conducted the validity and reliability testing.Results The Scale included the four dimensions of evidence generation,evi-dence synthesis,evidence transfer and evidence implementation,including 47 entries in total.The cumulative variance contribution rate was 59.08%.The confirmatory factor analysis results indicated that the model had good fitness.The convergent validity of all dimensions reached the standard,and the distinguishing validity was good.Finally,the Cronbach's α coefficient of the Scale was 0.971,and the split-half reliability was 0.928.Conclusion The developed Scale possesses good reliability and validity,which can be used to evaluate the competence of health professionals carrying the evidence-based healthcare related link works.
