Abstract

Nursing students face various stressors during clinical practice that can negatively impact mental health and academic performance. This study aims to validity and reliability of the Indonesian version of the perceptions of clinical stressors scale (NSPCSS). The study used a cross-sectional design with clinical nursing students in Indonesia. Construct validity was assessed using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and reliability was analysed using Cronbach's alpha. The CFA results showed that the three-factor model had a good model fit (X=588.053, df=222, p=0.001, CMIN/DF=2.649, NFI=0.90, RFI=0.90, IFI=0.93, TLI=0.92, CFI=0.93, RMSEA=0.08). Cronbach's alpha value was 0.945. The NSPCSS is proven to be valid and reliable. It can be used to identify the main sources of stress experienced by nursing students during clinical practice in Indonesia.
