Objectives:
This study was carried out as a methodological study to adapt the stressor scale for emergency nurses to Turkish and to test its validity and reliability.
Materials And Methods:
Data were collected between April 2019 and December 2019 from 250 emergency nurses working in the emergency department of two different universities and two state hospitals. The scale was reapplied to 40 emergency nurses from the sample group 3 weeks after the first application. For the validity studies of the scale, language validity, content validity, and construct validity studies were used, and for the reliability studies, internal consistency and test-retest reliability methods were used.
Results:
It was found that the content validity index of the final form was determined as 0.92 (0.78-1.00) according to expert opinions, the scale explained 69.19% of the total variance in four subdimensions, the Cronbach's alpha value was 0.90, and the test-retest intraclass correlation coefficient value was 0.97.
Conclusion:
It was concluded that the reliability and validity of the scale was high for Turkish society.
