| Popis: | 100 This research is to develop and establish the questionnaire for aesthetics of nursing（QAN）and verify the reliability and validity. The QAN was developed based on the literature review and the results of Huang’s qualitative research. The validity of the QAN was determinted by measuring the content validty, construct validity and current validity. Internal consistency and test-retest reliability were also examined to estimate stability of the scales. By using convenience sampling, 371 participants were collected from a medical center in central Taiwan. The final version of the QAN showed good internal consistency reliability (Cronbach’s α＝0.97) and test-retest reliability 0.80. Two of items were removed after content validities and item analysis. The construct validity of QAN was evaluated by exploratory factor analysis and six factors were revealed: professional image of aesthetics, concern of aesthetics, care of aesthetics, professional dedication of aesthetics, artistic of aesthetics, solidarity of aesthetics. Total variance explained of the full version of questionnaire for aesthetics of nursing is 64.55%. The QAN and six factors have an intrinsic consistency of 0.91, 0.93, 0.95, 0.88, 0.94, and 0.94, respectively. With regarding to criterion-related validation, the total scale of aesthetics of nursing was significant and positively correlated to the item, “I can provide care to patients”. Through comprehensive tests of reliability and validity, a 39-item questionnaire for aesthetics of nursing was yielded. The 39-item QAN total variance explained is 65.87% and entire intrinsic consistency is 0.96. An intrinsic consistency of the 39-item QAN and six factors are, respectively, 0.80, 0.92, 0.89, 0.83, 0.86 and 0.92. The QAN and the 39-item QAN are valid and reliable instrument for evaluating aesthetics of nursing. |
