Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is a public health problem throughout the world. Nurses are usually the first caregivers in the mental health team who deal with people with NSSI. Since the consequences of self-injury are associated with its care and treatment, nurses' attitudes towards these people are an important issue. This study aimed to develop and test a scale to measure nurses' attitudes towards patients with non-suicidal self-injury in the Farsi language.
A methodological survey.
In this methodological study, to scale preparation, psychometric steps were performed on a questionnaire based on the results of a qualitative study and literature review. Exploratory Factor Analysis was conducted to identify the underlying structure of the scale.
The results of the psychometric evaluation showed that the scale included the 22-item NANSSI in four dimensions, including negativism about the consequences of caring, adopting a counselling approach, violating caring norms, and perceptions about self-injury. By Cronbach's alpha equal to 0.75, its reliability is estimated. This scale showed a good validity and reliability, which is applicable to evaluate quality of care for patients with non-suicidal self-injury.

非自杀性自伤（NSSI）是一个全球性的公共卫生问题。护士通常是心理健康团队中首批接触NSSI患者的护理人员。由于自伤后果与其护理和治疗相关，护士对这些人的态度是一个重要问题。本研究旨在开发并测试一个波斯语量表，以测量护士对非自杀性自伤患者的态度。
方法学调查。
在这项方法学研究中，为编制量表，基于定性研究结果和文献综述，对一份问卷进行了心理测量步骤。进行探索性因素分析以确定量表的潜在结构。
心理测量评估结果表明，该量表包括22个项目的NANSSI，分为四个维度，包括对护理后果的消极态度、采取咨询方法、违反护理规范以及对自伤的认知。通过Cronbach's α系数等于0.75来估计其信度。该量表显示出良好的效度和信度，适用于评估非自杀性自伤患者的护理质量。
