Abstract

Objective To translate the Educators’ Professional Development(EduProDe) scale and to assess the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the EduProDe. Methods The Sousa translation model was used for forward and back translation. Cross-cultural adaption of the translated scale was performed through expert consultation and pre-testing. Totally 396 clinical nurse educators from two tertiary general hospitals in Hangzhou were recruited from May 2021 to June 2021 by convenience sampling. The reliability and validity of the Chinese version of EduProDe scale were assessed. Results The Chinese version of the EduProDe scale included 3 subscales and 26 items in total. Three common factors were extracted by exploratory factor analysis,and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 79.712%. The I-CVI were 0.833~1.000 and the S-CVI was 0.974. The Cronbach’s α coefficient of the total scale was 0.977. Cronbach’s α coefficients of the three sub-scales were 0.964~0.974. The test-retest reliability of the total scale was 0.861. Conclusion The Chinese version of the EduProDe scale has good reliability and validity,which can be used as a tool to assess clinal nurse educators’ professional development competence,and provide reference for nursing education departments to formulate targeted nursing educator training programs.
