| description | Objectives: This study aimed to translate the Self-Efficacy Perception Scale of Administrator Nurses (SEPSAN) into Chinese and test its reliability and validity among nurse managers. Methods: A scale translation and cross-sectional validation study was conducted. The English version was translated for Chinese by the Brislin translation model included direct translation, back translation, integration, and cultural adjustment. A total of 382 nurse administrators were recruited from 20 general hospitals in five Chinese cities to assess the reliability and validity of the scale from April to May 2023. Validity assessments included content, structural, and convergent validity. Reliability was evaluated using Cronbach’s α coefficient and test–retest reliability. Results: The item-content validity index (I-CVI) of the scale ranged from 0.86 to 1.00, and the average scale-level content validity index (S-CVI/Ave) for the overall scale was 0.98. The exploratory factor analysis indicated five dimensions (planning, organizing, commanding, coordinating, controlling, and inspecting) with 41 items. The cumulative variance contribution rate was 63.72%. Confirmatory factor analysis showed an acceptable fit. The general Cronbach’s α coefficient was 0.95, and the test–retest reliability was 0.87. Conclusion: The Chinese version of SEPSAN showed satisfactory reliability and validity and thus can be used to assess the self-efficacy of nurse administrators in China. |
