The reliability of the questionnaire was evaluated using Cronbach’s alpha and internalconsistency. Statistical works were carried out in SPSS and AMOS.RESULTS: To determine the content validity of the tool, comparative fit index of the statementswas obtained equal to 0.88. Factor analysis of the items yielded acceptable and statisticallysignificant results (P < 0.001). The reliability of the tool was determined using internal consistencymethod (Cronbach’s alpha) for the whole tool, which was equal to 0.7. The reliability of thequestionnaire was investigated at two stages, and pretest/posttest correlation coefficients wereobtained (P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: The questionnaire had an acceptable validity and reliability. It can be used toevaluate evidence‑based practice. Among advantages of the tool is that it is easy to administer inhealth‑care fields.
