Scale development study validates an 18-item instrument in health science undergraduates, highlighting structured multidimensional perceptions of occupational health and safety.

Key Points

To develop and validate a reliable instrument to assess the normative perceptions of undergraduate health sciences students regarding management responsibilities in occupational health and safety.
Generated an initial item pool informed by safety culture literature, organizational management principles, and relevant occupational health and safety regulations.
Assessed face, content, and construct validity alongside reliability metrics using survey responses from 252 undergraduate health discipline students.
Performed exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and internal consistency evaluations.
Confirmatory factor analysis confirmed a four-factor, 18-item measurement model demonstrating acceptable-to-good fit, with all factor loadings reaching statistical significance above recommended thresholds.
The four validated subdimensions include Management Systems and Policies, Personnel Training and Information, Safety Culture Behavior, and Equipment and Resource Management.
The scale demonstrated high overall and subscale internal consistency while satisfying both convergent and discriminant validity criteria.
