Methods and materials
This study is included in the exploratory-descriptive type,
since it aims to analyze the applicability of knowledge and evidence based radiology by radiographers during their daily work and their academic education.
A self-applied questionnaire made by Abrantes,
Silva & Fernandes to assess EBP was addressed to 97 radiographers working in 5 public hospitals.
A total of 65 valid questionnaires (including 3 main sections (Section A,
Section B and Section C)) with a total of 103 items and a 7 point Likert scale format,
ranging from "totally disagree" to "strongly agree" for the content dimension,
and from "not important" to "extremely important" for the context dimension.
The collected sample is non-probabilistic and it was divided as follows:
Hospital A - 14 questionnaires for a population of 15.
Hospital B - 11 questionnaires in a population of 12.
Hospital C- 4 questionnaires in a population of 21.
Hospital D - 19 questionnaires in a population of 25.
Hospital E- 17 questionnaires in a population of 24.
Data were interpreted and statistically analyzed through descriptive statistics.
T-student and ANOVA tests were used for groups’ comparison.
