Overview

Randomized trial assesses a new scale measuring quiet firing effects on nurses, suggesting improved wellbeing strategies.

Key Points

  • This research aims to develop and validate a Chinese version of the Quiet Firing Scale for nurses in hospitals.
  • A Chinese version of the Quiet Firing Scale was developed and validated using translation and cultural adaptation.
  • Nurses from five general hospitals were surveyed using purposive sampling, with 720 valid responses collected.
  • Psychometric properties were assessed, including reliability and validity measures such as Confirmatory Factor Analysis and internal consistency.
  • The Chinese version of the scale consisted of 7 items with a unidimensional structure, explaining 67.36% of the variance.
  • Strong internal consistency was demonstrated (Cronbach's α = 0.908), and test-retest reliability was high (0.899).
  • Convergent validity was confirmed with an Average Variance Extracted of 0.591.
