Although Maslow's theory is frequently cited in the nursing literature and is commonly used as an underlying framework for clinical practice, it has been subjected to limited empirical scrutiny. This may be due, in part, to a scarcity of survey measures to operationalize the construct of need satisfaction. The Basic Need Satisfaction Inventory (BNSI) was developed for this purpose. The instrument, created from Andrews and Withey's indicators of life concerns and their "delighted-terrible" scale, was first examined through secondary data analysis, pilot tested (N = 21), and then administered to samples of men and women with chronic pulmonary disease (N = 109) and healthy older adults (N = 100). Emerging evidence of internal consistency reliability and construct validity suggests that the BNSI may be a useful instrument to measure need satisfaction and to test the adequacy of Maslow's theory for nursing science and practice.
尽管马斯洛的理论在护理文献中经常被引用，并且通常被用作临床实践的基础框架，但它受到的实证审查有限。这可能部分归因于缺乏用于将需求满足这一概念进行操作化的调查措施。基本需求满足量表（BNSI）就是为此目的而开发的。该工具由安德鲁斯和威西的生活关注点指标及其“愉悦 - 糟糕”量表创建而成，首先通过二次数据分析进行检验，进行了预测试（N = 21），然后施用于患有慢性肺病的男性和女性样本（N = 109）以及健康的老年人样本（N = 100）。内部一致性信度和结构效度的新证据表明，BNSI可能是一种用于测量需求满足以及检验马斯洛理论对护理科学和实践适用性的有用工具。
