[Effect of face mask type on trust attribution and doctor- patient relationship].

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic led to the wearing of face masks by both psychiatric care workers and patients.

The "evidence-based practice inventory": reliability and validity was demonstrated for a novel instrument to identify barriers and facilitators for Evidence Based Practice in health care.

Objectives: To design and validate a practical questionnaire for clinicians, to identify barriers and facilitators for evidence-based practice (EBP), that is, the use of research evidence in patient care. The inventory is ultimately intended for departments to assess local conditions for EBP, to aim and evaluate efforts at improving or maximizing EBP.

Study Design And Setting: We derived candidate items from existing EBP scales, psychology, and behavioral economics.
