This study developed and tested the Survey of Nurses

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Informatics
  • Psychometric Theory
  • Innovation Adoption

Background:

  • Assessing nurses' computer experience is crucial for effective health informatics.
  • Existing tools may not adequately capture the nuances of nurses' computer use and knowledge.
  • Understanding nurses' perceptions is key to successful technology integration in healthcare.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and psychometrically test an instrument to measure nurses' perceived computer experience.
  • To evaluate the content validity, construct validity, and reliability of the new instrument.
  • To provide a reliable and valid tool for assessing nurses' computer skills and informatics knowledge.

Main Methods:

  • Instrument development based on psychometric theory and innovation adoption models.

  • Scored sections assess general computer use, Health Information Systems (HIS) applications, and informatics roles.
  • Descriptive sections include formal education and a novice-to-expert scale; qualitative data on barriers to computer use were also collected.

    • Main Results:

    • The instrument demonstrated adequate content and construct validity.
    • Initial test-retest reliability indicated acceptable beginning reliability for the tool.
    • The Survey of Nurses' Computer Experience (SNCEQ) was found to be a reliable and valid measure.

    Conclusions:

    • The SNCEQ is a reliable and valid instrument for assessing nurses' past and present computer experience.
    • This tool can inform educational strategies and technology implementation for nursing informatics.
    • Further validation studies are recommended to strengthen its psychometric properties.
