Background: The implementation of evidence-based practice (EBP) in clinical contexts is recommended due to its positive impact on health, but it remains under the desirable. The training of undergraduate nursing students in the use of EBP is crucial, and, for that, there must be valid and reliable measures of EBP learning. Objective: To translate and to cross-cultural adapt into European Portuguese of the EBP Beliefs Scale (EBPB), EBP Implementation Scale for Students (EBPI-S), and Organizational Culture & Readiness for School-wide Integration of Evidence-based Practice Survey for Students (OCRSIEP-ES). Methodology: Translation and cross-cultural adaptation according to international recommendations. Preliminary validation in Portuguese undergraduate nursing students from nine institutions. Results: In the pre-final versions of the instruments, the participants suggested including the optional answer "I do not have sufficient knowledge to be able to answer" and increasing the recall period in the EBPI-S instrument. Phase 2 included 167 participants. The α for EBPB, EBPI-S, and OCRSIEP-ES was 0.854, 0.943, and 0.970, respectively. Conclusion: Preliminary results showed good internal consistency. Further validation studies with robust samples are required to test the reliability and validity of the instruments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The document chronologically presents the most significant dates and facts related to Nursing Education in Portugal. The main goal is to convey, in a practical and didactical form, synthesized information to the reader. Legislation and relevant events for the development of schools, the education and the research in Coimbra are pointed out starting in the year of 1881, when the oldest Portuguese Nursing School was founded, until nowadays.

Context: evidence suggests that cognitive stimulation (CS) has a positive effect on cognition, depressive symptomatology (DS), and autonomy in elderly people. Objectives: to analyze the effectiveness of cognitive stimulation on cognition, DS, and autonomy in instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) of the senior community. Methodology: experimental study with pre- and post-test, with a sample of 23 elders, 30.43% men and 69.57% women, mean age of 77.66, SD 7.73 years. We used the Portuguese versions of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, the Geriatric Depression Scale-15 and the Lawton Brody Scale for Instrumental Activities of Daily Living. The experimental group received 14 treatment sessions with CS. Results: elders undergoing CS improved their cognitive state and the intervention explained the variation of 17.86%. Although the evidence is not conclusive about the effect of CS in DS and IADL, 20% and 17%, respectively, more of the elders improved their clinical condition compared to those who were not treated. Conclusions: the cognitive stimulation improved senior's cognitive condition therefore we recommend its implementation as a component of care for the elderly in a community context. Further studies ought to include larger samples as well as maintenance program and follow-up in order to strengthen and clarify these results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
