Academic advising and counseling services support students in achieving their educational outcomes. Unfortunately, there is a paucity of research on academic advising and student-support systems among nursing students. Therefore, the current study aims to develop a student academic advising and counseling survey (SAACS) and measure its validity and reliability.
Cross-sectional design was used to collect online self-administered data from undergraduate nursing students in Egypt and Saudi Arabia. The SAACS is developed based on relevant literature and tested for content and construct validity.
A total of 1,134 students from both sites completed the questionnaire. Students' mean age was 20.3 ± 1.4, and the majority of them were female (81.9%), single (95.6%), and unemployed (92.3%). The content validity index (CVI) of SAACS overall score (S-CVI) is 0.989, and S-CVI/UA (universal agreement) is 0.944, which indicates excellent content validity. The overall SAACS reliability showed an excellent internal consistency with a Cronbach's Alpha of 0.97 (95% CI: 0.966 - 0.972).
The SAACS is a valid and reliable tool for assessing students' experience with academic advising and counseling services and can be utilized to improve those services in nursing school settings.
学术咨询和辅导服务支持学生实现他们的教育成果。不幸的是，关于护理学生的学术咨询和学生支持系统的研究很少。因此，目前的研究旨在开发学生学术咨询和辅导调查（SAACS），并衡量其有效性和可靠性。
采用横断面设计，从埃及和沙特阿拉伯的本科护理学生中在线收集自我管理数据。SAACS 是基于相关文献开发的，并测试了其内容和结构效度。
来自两个地点的共 1134 名学生完成了问卷。学生的平均年龄为 20.3±1.4 岁，其中大多数是女性（81.9%）、单身（95.6%）和无业（92.3%）。SAACS 总分（S-CVI）的内容效度指数（CVI）为 0.989，S-CVI/UA（普遍一致）为 0.944，表明内容效度优秀。SAACS 的整体可靠性显示出极好的内部一致性，克朗巴赫的阿尔法系数为 0.97（95%置信区间：0.966-0.972）。
SAACS 是评估学生对学术咨询和辅导服务的体验的有效和可靠工具，可用于改善护理学校的这些服务。
