Psychometric properties and U.S. National norms of the Evidence-Based Practice Attitude Scale (EBPAS).
Abstract: The Evidence-Based Practice Attitude Scale (EBPAS) assesses mental health and social service provider attitudes toward adopting evidence-based practices. Comprised of four subscales (i.e., Appeal, Requirements, Openness, and Divergence) and a total scale score, preliminary studies have linked EBPAS scores to clinic structure and policies, organizational culture and climate, and first-level leadership. EBPAS scores are also related to service provider characteristics including age, education level, and level of…

“…The current findings suggest that identifying as a woman was not a significant statistical predictor of telepsychology use. This is in contrast with the results of a study indicating that women who provide mental health services were more likely to adopt EBPs when compared with men (Aarons et al, 2010). These results do agree with results from an earlier study demonstrating women were no more open to adopting EBPs than men were (Aarons, 2004).…”

“…Regarding the second research question, we found that school counselors with less experience reported more positive attitudes toward the use of EBPs compared to school counselors with more experience. This study’s finding contradicts a finding by Aarons et al (2010), which indicated that more experienced practitioners were more open to implement required EBPs as compared to newer colleagues. Although older practitioners do not necessarily have more years of professional experience, these differing findings illicit further research needed on EBPs and school counselors to further explore the relationship between age, years of experience, and attitudes toward EBPs.…”

“…By correcting the model for this correlation, we found a good fit (χ 2 (85) = 146 . 48, CFI = 0.96, TLI = 0.95, RMSEA = 0.05, SRMR = 0.05) and our results exactly matched the results of Aarons et al [ 16 ]. Factor loadings ranged from 0.45 to 0.99.…”
