Background And Purpose:
A valid and reliable Authentic Leadership (AL) measurement instrument is paramount as nursing leadership research grows. The purpose of this study was to analyze the reliability and construct validity of the Authentic Leadership Inventory (ALI) among nurses.
Methods:
This study was a cross-sectional, prospective design that explored the relationship between registered nurses' (RNs) perceptions of AL qualities in nurse managers in a random sample of RNs working in an acute care setting.
Results:
A Cronbach α 0.96 confirmed reliability. Exploratory factor analysis determined a one-factor structure. Confirmatory factor analysis utilized the one-factor structure for a final best-fit model (χ2 = 107.3, df = 70, p = .003; TLI = 0.95, CFI = 0.96, RMSEA = 0.08).
Conclusions:
This study gives support to using the ALI with the nursing profession.
