The Organizational Learning Instrument-Development Stages (OLI-DS) measure hospital units' readiness to engage in organizational learning. This study aimed to translate and evaluate the psychometric properties of the Persian version of this instrument. Organizational learning is crucial for nurses as it enables them to continuously develop their knowledge, skills, and abilities, enhancing the quality of patient care. However, validated instruments are needed to assess organizational learning in Persian-speaking healthcare settings. The research was carried out using a cross-sectional design. This research study involved 319 clinical nurses selected using convenience sampling. The OLI-DS tool, consisting of 35 items, underwent a forward-backward translation process to Persian before being utilized for a psychometric analysis. The face, content, and construct validity were used to evaluate the tool's effectiveness. The quality and accuracy of the measurements were determined by calculating internal consistency and stability reliability. The data were analyzed using SPSS and AMOS software. The intended meaning and clarity of the original English version were preserved in the Persian rendition of the OLI-DS instrument. The confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) further confirmed the consistency of the Persian version with the proposed four-factor model, indicating a good fit. The overall instrument had excellent values for Cronbach's alpha coefficient ( = 0.931), McDonald's omega ( = 0.921), coefficient H ( = 0.979), and mean interitem correlation ( = 0.278). The convergent and discriminant validity of the four latent factors was found to be good. The stability of the overall OLI-DS instrument was ICC = 0.942 (95% CI, 0.902-0.955). The Persian version of the OLI-DS has been validated to evaluate hospital units' readiness for organizational learning processes. It is a robust tool for assessing their preparedness to participate in and benefit from organizational learning initiatives. The robust psychometric validation of the Persian version of the OLI-DS instrument equips nursing administrators and leaders with a reliable tool. This tool can assess and monitor organizational learning and development in healthcare settings, empowering them to make informed decisions in critical nursing management activities.
组织学习工具开发阶段（OLI-DS）用于衡量医院各科室参与组织学习的准备程度。本研究旨在翻译并评估该工具波斯语版本的心理测量特性。组织学习对护士至关重要，因为它能使护士不断提升知识、技能和能力，从而提高患者护理质量。然而，在说波斯语的医疗环境中，需要经过验证的工具来评估组织学习情况。本研究采用横断面设计。通过便利抽样选取了319名临床护士参与本研究。由35个项目组成的OLI-DS工具在进行心理测量分析之前，经历了向前-向后翻译为波斯语的过程。通过表面效度、内容效度和结构效度来评估该工具的有效性。通过计算内部一致性和稳定性可靠性来确定测量的质量和准确性。数据使用SPSS和AMOS软件进行分析。OLI-DS工具的波斯语版本保留了原始英语版本的预期含义和清晰度。验证性因子分析（CFA）进一步证实了波斯语版本与所提出的四因素模型的一致性，表明拟合良好。整个工具的Cronbach's alpha系数（=0.931）、McDonald's omega（=0.921）、系数H（=0.979）和平均项目间相关性（=0.278）均具有优异的值。发现四个潜在因子的收敛效度和区分效度良好。整个OLI-DS工具的稳定性为组内相关系数（ICC）=0.942（95%CI，0.902 - 0.955）。OLI-DS的波斯语版本已通过验证，可用于评估医院各科室对组织学习过程的准备程度。它是评估各科室参与组织学习倡议并从中受益的准备情况的有力工具。OLI-DS工具波斯语版本强大的心理测量验证为护理管理人员和领导者提供了一个可靠的工具。该工具可评估和监测医疗环境中的组织学习与发展情况，使他们能够在关键的护理管理活动中做出明智决策。
