Abstract
Abstract: Journal clubs were utilized in an undergraduate nursing research course to achieve scholarship for evidence-based practice. Journal club members learned to critically appraise an assigned nursing research article by identifying the clinical problem, practicing literature search skills, and determining the research design and level of evidence. They also critically appraised the data collection methods, the sample size, and study outcomes and translated findings to practice. Over the semester, journal club members gained confidence in critically appraising research articles, came to appreciate the research process, and learned how nursing research informs evidence-based practice.
