We aimed to examine the validity and reliability of a newly developed tool that measures nursing and allied health students' knowledge of caring for patients with COVID-19.
We developed in five phases (literature review, item development, expert evaluation using content validity index, revisions based on a pilot test, and exploratory factor and reliability analyses on the data from the main study). We administered online surveys (the pilot test & the main study using a cross-sectional design) to students in a governmental health sciences college in Oman.
The pilot test had 43 participants, and the main study had 507. The item content validity index scores ranged from 0.81-1.00, and the scale content validity index for 20 items was 0.95. The factor analysis revealed a three-factor solution. The overall Cronbach's alpha for the final (19-item) version of the tool after item deletion was 0.76. The reliabilities for Subscales 1, 2, and 3 were 0.83, 0.67, and 0.51, respectively.
本研究旨在检验一种新开发的工具的有效性和可靠性，该工具用于测量护理和相关健康专业学生照顾 COVID-19 患者的知识。
我们分五个阶段进行（文献回顾、项目开发、使用内容效度指数的专家评估、基于试点测试的修订以及对主要研究数据的探索性因子和可靠性分析）。我们在阿曼的一所政府卫生科学学院对学生进行了在线调查（试点测试和使用横断面设计的主要研究）。
试点测试有 43 名参与者，主要研究有 507 名参与者。项目内容效度指数得分范围为 0.81-1.00，20 个项目的量表内容效度指数为 0.95。因子分析显示三因素解。经过项目删除后，工具最终（19 项）版本的总 Cronbach's alpha 为 0.76。3 个分量表的信度分别为 0.83、0.67 和 0.51。
