Much of the research on nursing informatics competence has been conducted in a Western context. Thus, this study aimed to develop the Korean Nursing Informatics Competence Assessment Scale for clinical nurses and to evaluate its validity and reliability. A total of 52 items were derived based on the hybrid model. After a content validity test by six experts and item evaluation by 20 nurses, the scale was revised to include 35 items. For this study, 214 nurses completed the nursing informatics competence assessment scale to verify the scale's reliability and validity. Confirmatory factor analysis revealed five factors composed of 20 items; the fit index of the derived model was good. A positive correlation between scores on the nursing informatics competence scale and the patient safety competence scale ( r = .66, P < .001) was found for the criterion-related validity test. Cronbach's α was .91, indicating that the instrument is reliable and stable. Overall, this study provides preliminary evidence for the validity and reliability of the Korean nursing informatics competence assessment scale to evaluate clinical nurses. This study contributes to the understanding and improvement of nursing informatics competence by providing a reliable scale for assessing clinical nursing practice.
许多关于护理信息学能力的研究都是在西方背景下进行的。因此，本研究旨在开发针对临床护士的韩国护理信息学能力评估量表，并评估其有效性和可靠性。基于混合模型得出了总共52个项目。经过6位专家的内容效度测试和20名护士的项目评估后，该量表修订为包含35个项目。在本研究中，214名护士完成了护理信息学能力评估量表，以验证该量表的可靠性和有效性。验证性因素分析揭示了由20个项目组成的五个因素；推导模型的拟合指数良好。在与标准相关的效度测试中，发现护理信息学能力量表得分与患者安全能力量表得分之间存在正相关（r = 0.66，P < 0.001）。克朗巴赫α系数为0.91，表明该工具可靠且稳定。总体而言，本研究为韩国护理信息学能力评估量表评估临床护士的有效性和可靠性提供了初步证据。本研究通过提供一个可靠的量表来评估临床护理实践，有助于理解和提高护理信息学能力。
