This study aims to develop and evaluate the psychometric properties of the Pediatric Nursing Competency Scale for nursing students.
This study was conducted with 318 nursing students, including third-year students enrolled in a pediatric nursing course and fourth-year students completing a pediatric nursing internship. Factor analysis, Cronbach's alpha, item-total score analysis, and known-groups comparison were used to assess the research data. In total, 16 items were eliminated from the scale on the basis of experts' recommendations.
The scale consisted of 39 items and 8 sub-scales. The 8 sub-scales exhibited 66.4% of the total variance. Both exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) revealed that all factor loads were greater than 0.40. The CFA also revealed that all of the fit indices were greater than 0.85, and the root mean square error of approximation was less than 0.08. Cronbach's alpha was 0.96 for the entire scale, and greater than 0.80 for all sub-scales.
The Pediatric Nursing Competency Scale for nursing students was found to be valid and reliable.
本研究旨在开发并评估护理专业学生儿科护理能力量表的心理测量学特性。
本研究对318名护理专业学生进行,包括参加儿科护理课程的三年级学生和完成儿科护理实习的四年级学生。采用因素分析、克朗巴哈系数、项目总分分析和已知群体比较来评估研究数据。根据专家建议,共从量表中删除了16个项目。
该量表由39个项目和8个分量表组成。8个分量表解释了总方差的66.4%。探索性因素分析和验证性因素分析(CFA)均显示所有因素载荷均大于0.40。CFA还显示所有拟合指数均大于0.85,近似误差均方根小于0.08。整个量表的克朗巴哈系数为0.96,所有分量表均大于0.80。
护理专业学生儿科护理能力量表被发现具有有效性和可靠性。
