Key Points

This study aims to create and initially validate the Clinical Patient Behavior Scale (CPBS) to assess patient behaviors in clinical settings.
Conducted with 300 nurses at a university hospital.
Developed a 30-item initial pool through literature review and expert evaluation.
Evaluated content validity, structure validity using Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), and internal consistency with Cronbach's alpha.
CPBS demonstrated excellent sample adequacy (KMO = 0.939) and significant Bartlett's test of sphericity (p < 0.001).
EFA revealed a five-factor structure explaining 73.37% of total variance.
CFA indicated excellent model fit (CFI = 0.992, TLI = 0.991, RMSEA = 0.016) with all factor loadings statistically significant.
