It is important to evaluate nursing students' attitudes toward home care to improve home health nursing profession and increase the number of nursing students willing to work in home care in the future. However, there is no valid and reliable scale for measuring attitudes toward this care method in Iran. This study aimed to determine the psychometric properties of the Persian version of the Attitude Scale for Home Care (ASHC) for nursing students. Data were collected from 280 nursing students. A methodological study was conducted to assess face, content and construct validity and reliability. The results showed good content validity. Only item 17 was considered unfavorable and was omitted. After excluding three items in the confirmatory factor analysis, a 25-item model with good fit indices was obtained. Cronbach's alpha showed a high internal consistency. This is a valid and reliable scale for assessing nursing students' attitudes toward home care.
评估护理学生对家庭护理的态度对于改善家庭保健护理专业以及增加未来愿意从事家庭护理工作的护理学生人数非常重要。然而,伊朗目前还没有用于测量对这种护理方法的态度的有效且可靠的量表。本研究旨在确定护理学生家庭护理态度量表(ASHC)的心理测量学特性。数据是从 280 名护理学生那里收集的。采用方法学研究来评估表面、内容和结构效度和信度。结果表明具有良好的内容效度。只有第 17 项被认为不赞成,因此被删除。在确认性因素分析中排除了三个项目后,获得了具有良好拟合指数的 25 项模型。克朗巴赫α值显示出较高的内部一致性。这是一个评估护理学生对家庭护理态度的有效且可靠的量表。
