The purpose of this study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of a revised intuition instrument developed for nursing students.
Principal component factor analysis was used to establish construct validity, and the Cronbach's alpha was used to examine reliability.
Statistical analysis resulted in a 26-item intuition instrument with 6 factors accounting for 62% of the variance. The factors were labeled as Feelings That Reassure (27.7%), Spiritual Connections (10.9%), Feelings That Alert (8.4%), Feelings That Forewarn (5.8%), Physical Sensations That Alert (4.7%), and Reading Physical Cues (4.2%). Eigenvalues ranged from 1.100 to 7.225, and factor loadings ranged from .572 to .848. The overall Cronbach's alpha was .89 with a range of .73 to .85 for each factor.
The 26-item intuition instrument showed evidence of construct validity and reliability.
The intuition instrument can serve as a stimulus to foster students' intuitive abilities.
本研究旨在评估为护理专业学生开发的修订版直觉工具的心理测量特性。
采用主成分因子分析来确定结构效度，并用克朗巴哈系数来检验信度。
统计分析得出了一个包含26个条目的直觉工具，有6个因子，解释了62%的方差。这些因子分别被标记为“令人安心的感觉”（27.7%）、“精神联系”（10.9%）、“警觉的感觉”（8.4%）、“预先警告的感觉”（5.8%）、“警觉的身体感觉”（4.7%）和“解读身体线索”（4.2%）。特征值范围为1.100至7.225，因子载荷范围为0.572至0.848。总体克朗巴哈系数为0.89，每个因子的范围为0.73至0.85。
这个包含26个条目的直觉工具显示出结构效度和信度的证据。
该直觉工具可作为培养学生直觉能力的一种激励手段。
