Reliability and validity of Vietnamese version of the Knowledge, Attitudes, Access, and Confidence Evaluation questionnaire.
Article in BDJ open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveTo effectively evaluate evidence-based dentistry (EBD) training outcomes, precise and validated assessment tools are essential. This study aimed to construct a Vietnamese version of the KACE questionnaire (Knowledge, Attitudes, Access, and Confidence Evaluation) and to assess its reliability and validity.
methodsAfter translating the original KACE questionnaire, we conducted tests for face validity, content validity, and discriminant validity test. Cronbach's alpha and intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) were calculated to evaluate the internal consistency and reliability of the Vietnamese KACE questionnaire.
resultsThirty lecturers and 280 dental students completed the KACE questionnaire. Cronbach's alpha for the Attitude scale ranged from 0.90 to 0.97, for the Accessing Evidence scale from 0.90 to 0.96, and for the Confidence scale ranged from 0.83 to 0.93 across lecturers and dental student groups. The Knowledge scale had Cronbach's alpha from 0.55 to 0.79. The overall ICC of 0.861 indicated that the measurement is stable and consistent.
conclusionThe Vietnamese adaptation of the KACE questionnaire is a reliable and valuable tool for assessing EBD competencies among Vietnamese dental students and practitioners.
