| description | The aim of this study was to examine the reliability and validity of the Compassion Fatigue-Short Scale (CF-SC) in Turkish. The data of the study were obtained from 128 nurses working in a university hospital. In order to determine the factor structure of the scale, explanatory and confirmatory factor analysis, Spearman’s correlation coefficient and Cronbach α coefficient, item-total correlation were used for criterion validity. In light of the results of the explanatory and confirmatory factor analysis, the scale showed a two-dimensional structure. The factor loadings of all items of the scale were found to be over 0.40, and without subtracting any item from the scale, two sub-dimensional structures were accepted similar to the original scale (x2 = 106.72; df = 61; RMSEA = 0.007; p = 0.0001). CF-SC Cronbach α coefficient is 0.876; for secondary trauma sub-dimension of 0.748 and for job burnout sub-dimension of 0.852. As a result of this study, Compassion Fatigue-Short Scale has been found to be a valid and reliable assessment tool in evaluating compassion fatigue. |
