Brief Summary   To study the attitudes, confidence, and competence toward EBP of Occupational therapists working in neurorehabilitation in the Idian context . The study identified in the literature review provide insights into occupational therapists’ EBP related to attitudes, confidence, and competencies. these are primary in other countries and these findings may not apply to India due contextual differences. The practice settings of the occupational therapists are not specifed in these study and maybe across various settings. neurorehabilitation is a distinct area of occupational therapy practice and EBP related attitudes, confidence, and competencies may differ from other practice areas or settings. Considering the global burden of neurological disorders and the importance of neurorehabilitation occupational therapy services, specifically understanding EBP in neurorehabilitationis essential. In the absence of any studies in the Indian contecxt, there is a need to study the attitudes, confidence, and competence of neurorehabilitation occupational therapists toward evidence-based  practice inIndia
