ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Objective The Evidence-based Practice Knowledge Assessment in Nursing (EKAN) is an objective measure of evidence-based practice (EBP) knowledge. The aims of the project were to translate the EKAN instrument into Brazilian Portuguese, test its psychometric properties, and document a baseline assessment of students' EBP knowledge. Method This study used methodological design. The EKAN-Brazilian Portuguese was administered to nursing students from two baccalaureate programs. Data were analyzed using Rasch procedures. Results 123 students participated (87% ranged 19-25 years old; 60% were juniors; 38% perceived having no exposure to EBP). Validity indices showed the mean difficulty index = -2.48 to 2.07, the Infit (WMS) mean was.985 (SD = 2.13), and the Outfit (UMS) mean was.975 (SD = 0.17). Reliability indices showed sufficient item separation index (4.47); moderate person separation index (.47); high item reliability (.95); and low person reliability (.18). The mean EKAN sum score (max = 20) was 7.6 (SD = 2.13). Conclusion This study on the EKAN-Brazilian Portuguese version provided sufficient evidence for validity and reliability; the person reliabilities showed the need for improvement in incorporating EBP concepts and content in nursing programs.
RESUMO Objetivo A Evidence-based Practice Knowledge Assessment in Nursing (EKAN) é uma medida objetiva do conhecimento sobre prática baseada em evidência (PBE). Os objetivos do projeto foram traduzir a EKAN para o português do Brasil, testar suas propriedades psicométricas e documentar avaliação de linha de base do conhecimento de estudantes sobre a PBE. Método A EKAN-Versão Brasileira foi aplicada a estudantes de dois programas de bacharelado em enfermagem e os dados foram submetidos a análise de Rasch. Resultados Participaram 123 estudantes (87%-idades entre 19-25 anos; 60%-primeiro ano; 38% sem exposição prévia a conteúdo de PBE). Índices de validade: dificuldade média = -2,48 a 2,07; Infit (WMS) médio = 0,985 (DP = 2,13); Outfit (UMS) médio = 0,975 (DP = 0,17). Índices de confiabilidade mostraram índice de separação suficiente (4,47); de separação de pessoa moderado (0,47); alta confiabilidade dos itens (0,95); baixa confiabilidade de pessoas (0,18). O escore médio na EKAN (máximo = 20) foi 7,6 (DP = 2,13). Conclusão Esse estudo produziu evidências de validade e confiabilidade da EKAN-Versão Brasileira; a confiabilidade de pessoas mostrou a necessidade de incorporar conceitos e conteúdos sobre a PBE nos programas de enfermagem.
