The Perceived Inventory of Technological Competency as Caring in Nursing (PITCCN) questionnaire has been designed to measure technological competency as caring in nursing practice. It incorporates the use of technology with the fundamental principles of caring that are central to nursing. As there were no psychometrically sound instruments to quantify the concept of technological competency as caring in the Slovene language, we adapted the English version of the questionnaire to the local environment. The goal was to assess the level of psychometric properties of the PITCCN investigated in Slovene hospitals.
Content validity was conducted with eight experts and quantified by the content validity index (CVI) and the modified Cohen's kappa index. Face validity was assessed through discussions with participants from the target culture in the pilot study. To assess construct validity and internal consistency, a cross-sectional research methodology was used on a convenience sample of 121 nursing personnel from four hospitals. Principal component analysis (PCA) was used to examine construct validity, while Cronbach's alpha and adjusted item-total correlations were used to measure internal consistency.
The content and face validity of PITCCN were adequate. The scale validity index (S-CVI) was 0.97. Cronbach's α was 0.92, and subscale reliabilities ranged from 0.810 to 0.925. PCA showed four components, which explained more than 73.49% of the variance.
The Slovenian version of PITCCN (PITCCN_SI) has good psychometric properties.
《护理中作为关怀的技术能力感知量表》（PITCCN）问卷旨在衡量护理实践中作为关怀的技术能力。它将技术的使用与护理核心的关怀基本原则相结合。由于斯洛文尼亚语中没有从心理测量学角度衡量作为关怀的技术能力这一概念的有效工具，我们将该问卷的英文版本进行了本地化改编。目的是评估在斯洛文尼亚医院中调查的PITCCN的心理测量特性水平。
八位专家进行了内容效度评估，并通过内容效度指数（CVI）和修正的科恩kappa指数进行量化。在预试验中，通过与目标文化的参与者进行讨论来评估表面效度。为了评估结构效度和内部一致性，对来自四家医院的121名护理人员的便利样本采用了横断面研究方法。主成分分析（PCA）用于检验结构效度，而克朗巴赫α系数和调整后的项目-总分相关性用于衡量内部一致性。
PITCCN的内容效度和表面效度良好。量表效度指数（S-CVI）为0.97。克朗巴赫α系数为0.92，各子量表的信度在0.810至0.925之间。主成分分析显示有四个成分，解释了超过73.49%的方差。
斯洛文尼亚语版的PITCCN（PITCCN_SI）具有良好的心理测量特性。
