This study also used Netemeyer’s “Guidelines in Scale Development” to develop an instrument for midwifery clinical leadership among nursing students. The sample used for the research was 9 experts and 330 nursing students in the fourth year of being selected by multi-stage sampling. The instruments used in the study were an interview guide and a questionnaire. The data were analyzed by content analysis and factor analysis (exploratory factor analysis: EFA).Results: Three separate data collections were used for the development of these instruments. The outcome of the content validity assessment was a 60‐items questionnaire, Item-Objective Congruence (IOC) 0.94. The results of EFA yielded an instrument with 58 items in four-component. The final value of the Kaiser–Meyer–Olkin (KMO) and Bartlett’s Test was 0.956.Conclusion: The instruments present a good interpretation of the data and were consistent with the personality attributes. The questionnaire was designed to measure with strong loading of measurement.Keywords: measurement, midwifery clinical leadership, nursing students
