Construct validity provides a vital linkage between nursing practice, research, and theory. Seventeen articles published in Advances in Nursing Science that met the criterion of reporting instrument development or modification were examined for evidence of these linkages. All were based on theoretical constructs; nursing problems were identified in 15, and 14 provided evidence of construct validity. Factor analysis was the primary method of construct validity reported. Implications for nursing practice were limited, suggestions for research focused on further instrument development, and only half reported implications for theory development. The findings indicate the need to strengthen links between practice, research, and theory.
结构效度在护理实践、研究和理论之间提供了至关重要的联系。对发表在《护理科学进展》上的17篇符合报告工具开发或修改标准的文章进行了审查，以寻找这些联系的证据。所有文章均基于理论构建；15篇文章识别出了护理问题，14篇提供了结构效度的证据。因子分析是报告的结构效度的主要方法。对护理实践的影响有限，研究建议侧重于进一步开发工具，只有一半的文章报告了对理论发展的影响。研究结果表明需要加强实践、研究和理论之间的联系。
