Abstract
A 3-phase study was conducted to develop and psychometrically evaluate the Patients' Perceptions of their Nurse-Patient Relations as Healing Transformations (RELATE) Scale. There is a lack of tools measuring nurse-patient relationship dynamics from a unitary-transformative paradigm to evaluate the patient's experience of what works to enhance their well-becoming. The 35-item scale was completed by 311 adults with chronic illness. The Cronbach α for the 35-item scale was 0.965 suggesting good internal consistency. Principal components analyses yielded a 17-item, 2-component solution explaining 60.17% of the total variance. This theoretically driven and psychometrically sound scale will contribute to quality-of-care data.
期刊介绍:
Consistently ranked as one of the most-read and most assigned journals by faculties of graduate programs in nursing, Advances in Nursing Science (ANS) is intellectually challenging, innovative and progressive, and features articles from a wide range of scholarly traditions. The journal particularly encourages works that speak to the need for global sustainability and that take an intersectional approach, recognizing class, color, sexual and gender identity, and other dimensions of human experience related to health. Articles in ANS are peer-reviewed and chosen for their pioneering perspectives and for their significance in contributing the evolution of the discipline of nursing.
