Abstrakt: Aim: We aimed to examine the validity and reliability of a newly developed tool that measures nursing and allied health students' knowledge of caring for patients with COVID-19.
Method: We developed in five phases (literature review, item development, expert evaluation using content validity index, revisions based on a pilot test, and exploratory factor and reliability analyses on the data from the main study). We administered online surveys (the pilot test & the main study using a cross-sectional design) to students in a governmental health sciences college in Oman.
Results: The pilot test had 43 participants, and the main study had 507. The item content validity index scores ranged from 0.81-1.00, and the scale content validity index for 20 items was 0.95. The factor analysis revealed a three-factor solution. The overall Cronbach's alpha for the final (19-item) version of the tool after item deletion was 0.76. The reliabilities for Subscales 1, 2, and 3 were 0.83, 0.67, and 0.51, respectively.
