| Abstrakt: | Background and Purpose: Nurse–patient communication has a significant effect on health outcomes and quality of care. The purpose of this research was to develop and validate an instrument to measure nurses' beliefs toward interacting with Deaf signers, non-signing deaf, and hard of hearing (DdHH) patients. Methods: Initial pool items created based on literature review. Content validated by DdHH and hearing registered nurses (RNs) and certified interpreters working in healthcare. Resulting D/deaf and Hard of Hearing Interaction Beliefs Scale for Registered Nurses (DdHH-IBS/RN) administered to two groups of RNs. Two validation studies conducted. Results: Analyses demonstrated high inter-item reliability, internal consistency reliability, and stability reliability of a 25-item DdHH-IBS/RN. Confirmatory factor analysis supported hypothesized structure of the scale. Conclusion: The DdHH-IBS/RN is a reliable and valid scale to measure nurses' beliefs towards DdHH interaction.
