Abstract:

Objective To translate the Reflection Evaluation for Learners’ Enhanced Competencies Tool(REFLECT) into Chinese and to test its reliability and validity. Methods The REFLECT was translated forward and backward after which cultural adaptation was completed. Then the Chinese version(C-REFLECT)was reviewed by six experts with relevant expertise to test its content validity. Fifty diaries from the new graduate nurses were evaluated by three individuals using the C-REFLECT to verify its reliability. Results Statistical significance was shown between the high score group and the low score group evaluated by the C-REFLECT(t=4.210~9.121,P<0.001). The commonality scores ranged from 0.318 to 0.718 while factor loadings were from 0.564 to 0.847. Content validity coefficients were from 0.83 to 1. Cronbach’s α coefficient was 0.833 and test-retest reliability was 0.618(P<0.01).Interrater reliability among three individuals was 0.681(P<0.05). Conclusion The C-REFLECT was valid and reliable as an analytical tool for reflective diary evaluation. It can be used to assess the reflection ability of new nurses. Besides,it can provide reference for reflection training and individual feedbacks.
