AbuRuz et al. (2017) [3]	To examine the knowledge, attitudes, and practice of Jordanian nurses in the area of evidence-based practice at seven major hospitals in Jordan.	Cross-sectional	500	Questionnaire	The attitudes toward evidence-based practice were determined to be the most popular, followed by attitudes toward knowledge and skills, and finally attitudes toward practice and implementation. Nurses that are female undertake less research and have a more negative attitude toward their jobs, and they are less educated about research processes than nurses who are male.
Ez elarab et al. (2012) [6]	To assess nurses’ knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) among nurses in Saudi Arabia.	Cross-sectional	156	Questionnaire	According to nurses’ awareness of terminology connected with EBP, there is no statistically significant variation in knowledge based on their educational level or nationality. Also found was no difference in nurses’ attitudes toward evidence- based practice and practice of EBP between those who had a bachelor’s degree and those who had obtained a certificate, and no difference in knowledge-related EBP between Saudi and non-Saudi nurses. The percentage of excellent practices in EBP reported by non-Saudi nurses was much higher (60.5 percent), with the majority of their overall self-reported practice being always, compared to 39.5 percent of Saudi nurses.
Yoo et al. (2019) [13]	Clinical nurses’ knowledge, beliefs, organizational preparedness, and EBP implementation levels should were assessed, and the elements that influence EBP implementation should be identified in order to successfully establish EBP among clinical nurses.	Cross-sectional	521	Questionnaire	Evidence-based practice (EBP) was seen positively by clinical nurses, but their comprehension of EBP, organizational preparation, and competence to implement EBP were deemed inadequate. Researchers discovered that EBP practitioners’ knowledge, attitudes, and organizational preparation were all substantially associated with their ability to apply the practice of EBP. In the final model, it was discovered that EBP knowledge and organizational preparation were significant predictors of EBP implementation, with the model accounting for 22.2 percent of the variation in EBP implementation.
Tolera and Hui (2017) [14]	To determine the attitudes, skills, and sources of information of registered nurses working in selected teaching hospitals in China about the application of EBP.	Cross-sectional	366	Questionnaire	Nurses were generally enthusiastic about the use of evidence-based practice in their clinical practice, according to the survey results. In contrast, it was discovered that both the degree of ability in completing various EBP tasks and in utilizing information resources to support daily care practice were insufficient.
Pérez-Campos et al. (2014) [15]	To assess the EBP competency of Spanish and Latin-American nurses, as well as the effect of socio- demographic and professional characteristics, the researchers conducted a study.	Cross-sectional	314	Online survey	A score of 5.02 out of 7 was assigned to EBP on a scale ranging from 1 to 7. According to the findings of the study, characteristics linked with higher EBP competency included academic level, professional category, country of employment, evaluation of practice environment, and participation in research activities.
Zhou et al. (2016) [16]	EBP in traditional Chinese nursing profession is being studied to determine nurses’ attitudes, knowledge, and practice on EBP.	Multiple institutional cross-sectional	648	Questionnaire	The mean of all EBP values was 4.24, which was the highest possible score. Although the attitude component received the highest marks, the knowledge component received the second highest, and the practice component received the lowest marks. RNs with more years of experience had a greater grasp of EBP than their less experienced counterparts. In addition, nurses who were experiencing increasing job stress reported having fewer favorable opinions toward their jobs.
Al-Busaidi et al. (2019) [17]	To investigate nurses’ knowledge, practice, and attitudes about evidence-based practice (EBP) in Oman.	Multi- institutional cross-sectional study	202	Questionnaire	Those with positive attitudes toward EBP were found to be the most prevalent, followed by those with knowledge and practice. According to the findings, there is a statistically significant positive relationship between the total number of years of nursing experience and the mean scores in knowledge, practice, and attitudes. There was no statistically significant difference in EBP ratings across the three clinical settings when comparing the three clinical settings.
Al-Maskari & Patterson (2018) [18]	To examine the attitudes of Omani nurses toward evidence-based practice (EBP), as well as their assessments of the challenges to and facilitators of EBP adoption in Oman.	Cross-sectional	260	Questionnaire	When it came to mean attitude ratings per item, there was no statistically significant difference between staff nurses and nurse leaders, suggesting that nurses had good attitudes toward evidence- based practice. While nurse leaders outperformed staff nurses in the subsections on obstacles to changing practice and obtaining and reviewing evidence, they scored lower than staff nurses in the subsection on facilitators of changing practice.
