一句话：设计并纵向评估一门面向大学生的循证软件工程培训课程，发现其能持续传授技能并改变学员态度与行为。
该纵向案例研究关注循证软件工程（EBSE）培训能否弥合学术与工业界鸿沟。作者为大学生设计 EBSE 课程，并在 2017、2018、2019 年课程结束时及结课 7、21 个月后收集调查数据，考察培训对学员态度与行为的影响。结果显示课程能充分且一致地传授 EBSE 知识；约半数受访者使用了新技能；最常报告的效果是 EBSE 概念提升了对研究证据价值的认识，EBSE 方法改善了信息收集技能。作者认为培训对循证实践采纳具有关键作用，该方法适合本科生入门，但仍需继续研究其长期影响。
Context: Evidence-based software engineering (EBSE) can be an effective resource to bridge the gap between academia and industry by balancing research of practical relevance and academic rigor. To achieve this, it seems necessary to investigate EBSE training and its benefits for the practice. Objective: We sought both to develop an EBSE training course for university students and to investigate what effects it has on the attitudes and behaviors of the trainees. Method: We conducted a longitudinal case study to study our EBSE course and its effects. For this, we collect data at the end of each EBSE course (2017, 2018, and 2019), and in two follow-up surveys (one after 7 months of finishing the last course, and a second after 21 months). Results: Our EBSE courses seem to have taught stu-dents adequately and consistently. Half of the respondents to the surveys report making use of the new skills from the course. The most-reported effects in both surveys indicated that EBSE concepts increase awareness of the value of research and evidence and EBSE methods improve information gathering skills. Conclusions: As suggested by research in other areas, training appears to play a key role in the adoption of evidence-based practice. Our results indicate that our training method provides an introduction to EBSE suitable for undergraduates. However, we believe it is necessary to continue investigating EBSE training and its impact on software engineering practice.
