The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate the psychometric properties of 2 supportive leadership scales, the Charge Nurse Support Scale and the Unit Manager Support Scale, designed for long-term-care environments. These 6-item self-report scales were administered to 70 nursing staff and their internal consistency reliability, test-retest reliability, content validity, factor structure, and construct validity investigated. Content validity was established with the assistance of experts. Both scales were deemed reliable. As hypothesized, a significant relationship was found between the measure of how nursing staff related to residents and measures of charge nurses' supportive behaviours (r = .42, p = .05). Reliable and valid measures of supportive leadership could be developed for use in identifying the quality of support provided to staff in long-term-care environments.
本研究的目的是开发并评估两种支持性领导量表——护士长支持量表和科室主任支持量表的心理测量特性,这两种量表专为长期护理环境设计。这两个包含6个条目的自陈式量表被施测于70名护理人员,并对其内部一致性信度、重测信度、内容效度、因子结构和结构效度进行了调查。内容效度在专家的协助下得以确立。两个量表均被认为具有可靠性。正如所假设的,护理人员与居民关系的测量结果和护士长支持行为的测量结果之间发现了显著关系(r = .42,p = .05)。可以开发出可靠且有效的支持性领导测量工具,用于识别长期护理环境中为员工提供的支持质量。
