The Mariani Nursing Career Satisfaction Scale (MNCSS) was developed to explore the influence of mentoring on career satisfaction of registered nurses (RNs). A review of the literature revealed no contemporary valid and reliable measure of career satisfaction.
The MNCSS is a semantic differential of 16 opposite adjective pairs on which participants rate feelings about their nursing career. The MNCSS was used in a pilot study and three major studies exploring career satisfaction of RNs. Validity, reliability, and exploratory factor analysis (FA) were computed to explore the internal structure of the instrument.
The newly developed instrument had a content validity index (CVI) of .84 and Cronbach's alpha internal consistency reliabilities of .93-.96 across three major studies. Exploratory FA (N = 496) revealed a univocal instrument with one factor that explains 57.8% of the variance in career satisfaction scores.
The MNCSS is a valid and reliable instrument for measuring career satisfaction. FA of the combined data from three studies yielded one factor that measures the concept of career satisfaction.
开发马里亚尼护士职业满意度量表(MNCSS)以探究指导对注册护士职业满意度的影响。文献综述显示,目前尚无关于职业满意度的有效且可靠的测量方法。
MNCSS是一个由16对反义词组成的语义差异量表,参与者据此对自己的护理职业感受进行评分。MNCSS用于一项试点研究以及三项探究注册护士职业满意度的主要研究。计算效度、信度和探索性因子分析(FA)以探究该量表的内部结构。
新开发的量表在三项主要研究中的内容效度指数(CVI)为0.84,克朗巴哈系数内部一致性信度为0.93 - 0.96。探索性因子分析(N = 496)显示该量表具有单一维度,一个因子解释了职业满意度得分中57.8%的方差。
MNCSS是一种有效且可靠的测量职业满意度的工具。对三项研究的合并数据进行因子分析得出一个测量职业满意度概念的因子。
