Most organizations invest in people for training to improve human capital and maximize profitability. Yet it is reported in industry and nursing as well that training effectiveness is constrained because of inadequate transfer of training and the underlying reasons for the transfer problem remain unknown. And there is lack of tool to measure transfer problem.
The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a questionnaire to evaluate the scores of factors influencing training transfer (FITT) among nursing professionals. The questionnaire was developed by item generation through interview with nurses and literature review. The FITT was validated in terms of content validity through expert reviews. Psychometric properties of the final instrument were assessed in a sample of 960 nurses with training experiences.
The content validity of the instrument were as follows: the IR was 0.8095. 51 items on the 63-item scale had I-CVIs of 1.0 and the remaining 12 items had I-CVIs of 0.88. The S-CVI/UA was 0.976 and the S-CVI/Ave was 0.977. For the exploratory step, principal axis factoring (PAF) was selected for this study. Parallel analysis was used to decide the number of factors to extract and oblimin rotation method was used. Exploratory factor analysis identified a five-factor solution including 53 items, accounting for 68.23% of the total variance. The confirmatory factor analysis showed some support for this five-factor model. The findings demonstrate high internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = .965).
This study indicates that the FITT is a valid and reliable instrument for assessing the factors influencing training transfer among nursing professionals. The FITT can be used to assess individual perceptions of catalysts and barriers to the transfer of training among nursing professionals, which can help promote training transfer and training effectiveness in the workplace.
大多数组织对人员进行培训投资，以提高人力资本并实现利润最大化。然而，行业和护理领域也有报道称，由于培训转化不足，培训效果受到限制，而转化问题的根本原因仍不明确。并且缺乏衡量转化问题的工具。
本研究的目的是开发并验证一份问卷，以评估护理专业人员中影响培训转化的因素得分（FITT）。该问卷通过与护士访谈生成条目并进行文献综述来开发。通过专家评审在内容效度方面对FITT进行验证。在960名有培训经历的护士样本中评估最终工具的心理测量特性。
该工具的内容效度如下：IR为0.8095。63项量表中的51项I-CVI为1.0，其余12项I-CVI为0.88。S-CVI/UA为0.976，S-CVI/Ave为0.977。在探索性步骤中，本研究选择主成分因子分析（PAF）。使用平行分析来确定要提取的因子数量，并使用斜交旋转法。探索性因子分析确定了一个包含53个条目的五因子解决方案，占总方差的68.23%。验证性因子分析对这个五因子模型提供了一些支持。研究结果显示出高内部一致性（克朗巴哈α系数=0.965）。
本研究表明，FITT是评估护理专业人员培训转化影响因素的有效且可靠的工具。FITT可用于评估护理专业人员对培训转化的促进因素和障碍的个人认知，这有助于促进工作场所的培训转化和培训效果。
