Nursing informatics is a specialty that integrates nursing science and technology to optimize the efficiency, effectiveness, quality and usability of patient care. This study aimed to translate into Spanish and pilot test the Students Nurse Informatics Competency Self-Assessment Scale (IECIEEs), based on the Korean instrument K-SANICS. The research was conducted through a three-phase process: linguistic translation, validation by fifteen experts in nursing informatics and computer science, and a pilot test involving a sample of three hundred nursing students in Mexico. The results demonstrated that the instrument possesses acceptable content validity and high internal consistency, as determined by the Cronbach alpha coefficient. Furthermore, a normalized scale was established to define cut-off points for interpreting low, medium and high competency levels. It is concluded that the IECIEEs scale is a valid and reliable tool for identifying educational needs and informatics competencies, facilitating the development of essential skills to improve clinical outcomes in the Spanish-speaking context.
