Background and Purpose: The Revised Professional Practice Environment (RPPE) scale is widely used to assess organizational attributes that support nursing practice. A Filipino adaptation is needed for use in the Philippines. This study evaluated the translated version's parallel forms reliability and initial convergent validity with the original English instrument. Methods: A psychometric evaluation design was implemented with 200 hospital nurses who completed both language versions of the RPPE. Pearson correlation coefficients between corresponding subscales were calculated to assess score consistency across forms and convergence with the English version. Results: All RPPE subscales showed high Filipino-English correlations (r = .779-.940), indicating strong alignment in how constructs were measured across languages. Conclusions: The Filipino RPPE shows strong parallel forms reliability and initial convergent validity. Further research should assess structural properties, invariance, and external validity.
