Abstract

<p>Purpose: This study aims to develop a support assessment scale of on-site nursing instructors based on the perceptions of novice nurses.</p><p>Methods: A draft scale was created based on the literature and qualitative studies related to the support provided for novice nurses. The validity and reliability of the scale was evaluated with a questionnaire survey administered to novice nurses working in ten university hospitals and national hospitals in the Tokyo metropolitan area.</p><p>Results: The number of valid responses was 553 (72.2%). Since no significant differences were found in the mean total scores of the draft scale depending on the gender, working experience as a member of society, and final educational background, all the valid responses were included in the analysis.</p><p>After performing an item analysis, we performed an exploratory factor analysis with the maximum likelihood method and promax rotation. The analysis identified 17 items in the following two factors: [practical support] and [emotional support]. The goodness of fit of the model by confirmatory factor analysis was GFI = .903, AGFI = .875, and RMSEA = .072. The correlation coefficient for the criterion-related validity was .723, the Cronbach’s coefficient alpha was .952, and the intraclass correlation coefficient by a test-retest was .697.</p><p>Conclusion: Acceptable reliability and validity of the support assessment scale of on-site nursing instructors perceived by novice nurses were verified.</p>
