The effect of nurses' perceptions of evidence-based attitudes on the quality of care: a cross-sectional study.
Article in BMC nursing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
backgroundEvidence-based practice, which is one of the key components of quality health care worldwide, has been emphasized more recently.
aimThis study was conducted to investigate the effect of nurses' evidence-based attitudes on the quality of care.
methodsThis descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted with 490 nurses actively working in Turkey. The Demographics Form, Attitude Scale for Evidence-based Nursing, and Caring Behaviors Scale were used to collect data. Structural Equation Modeling was used in the analysis of the research data, and the analysis was carried out using SPSS 22.0, AMOS V 24.0, G*Power 3.1 Statistical package programs.
resultsBeliefs and expectations towards evidence-based nursing were validated in the model established between the evidence-based practice intention and feelings about evidence-based nursing and Caring Behaviors Scale variables (F = 81.44; p = 0.001). It was determined that the model created in line with the hypotheses was compatible and the model fit indices were within the desired limits as x²/Sd = 3.256, RMSEA = 0.06, CFI = 0.98, GFI = 0.97, AGFI = 0.94, IFI = 0.98. The model shows that there is a significant and positive relationship between the attitude towards evidence-based nursing and the quality of care (t = 9.025, p < 0.001).
conclusionThere is a significant and positive relationship between evidence-based attitude and care behaviors. It was found out that the evidence-based attitudes of nurses increase the quality of care. Further research could investigate specific interventions or training programs that effectively enhance nurses' attitudes towards evidence-based nursing and subsequently improve the quality of care provided.
