Objective To translate Evidence-Informed Decision-Making Competence Measure for Chinese nurses and test its validity and reliability.Methods A research group was set up to use the Brislin translation model to translate the original scale into Chinese,and the back translation,cross-cultural adaptation,pre-experiment and cognitive interview were conducted to finally form the Chinese version of the Evidence-Informed Decision-Making Competence Measure for nurses.A total of 1 247 nurses from 7 tertiary A hospitals in Beijing,Hubei,Hunan and Xinjiang were selected by convenience sampling method in April 2024 to test its reliability and validity.Results 1 026 effective question-naires were collected,with an effective recovery rate of 82.28％.The Chinese version of the Evidence-Informed Decision-Making Competence Measure included 25 items,including knowledge/skill,attitude and behavior.A total of 3 common factors were extracted from exploratory factor analysis,and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 91.725％.The content validity index at the item level was 0.83-1.00;the content validity index at the scale level was 0.988;the calibration association validity was 0.496.The Cronbach's α coefficient of the whole scale was 0.992;the half-point reliability was 0.930;the retest reliability was 0.927.Conclusion The Chinese version of Evidence-Informed Decision-Making Competence Measure for nurses has good reliability and validity,and it can be used to evaluate the evidence-informed decision-making competence of Chinese nurses,provide references for promoting evidence-based nursing practice and evidence-informed decision-making.
