Nurturing a professional nursing self-concept is crucial in nursing education. To determine whether it has been achieved, a reliable and valid measurement tool is necessary. This study therefore aimed to translate the Nurses Self-Concept Instrument (NSCI), and then ascertain the content and construct validity, and test-retest and internal consistency reliability in the Chinese version of the NSCI (NSCI-C). A methodological design was conducted with 1239 nursing students of a university recruited as the sample frame and 540 randomly selected. The results showed the content validity index of 0.81 overall, alpha of 0.92 overall, and correlation coefficient of 0.87. The mean score of the NSCI-C was significantly higher in freshman than in senior (p<.01). The hypothesized four-factor model did not fit the data well. After restructuring, two factors were explored, with 69.04% explained variance. The findings suggest that the NSCI-C is reliable and valid in nursing students.
培养专业的护理自我概念在护理教育中至关重要。为了确定是否已实现这一目标,需要一个可靠且有效的测量工具。因此,本研究旨在翻译护士自我概念量表(NSCI),然后确定中文版NSCI(NSCI-C)的内容效度和结构效度,并检验重测信度和内部一致性信度。采用方法学设计,以一所大学的1239名护理专业学生为样本框架,随机抽取540名作为样本。结果显示,总体内容效度指数为0.81,总体α系数为0.92,相关系数为0.87。NSCI-C的平均得分在大一学生中显著高于大四学生(p<0.01)。假设的四因素模型与数据拟合不佳。经过重构,探索出两个因素,解释方差为69.04%。研究结果表明,NSCI-C在护理专业学生中具有可靠性和有效性。
