Yönetici Hemşirelerin Çalışan Hemşireleri Güçlendirici Davranışları Ölçeğinin Türkçeye Uyarlanması: Geçerlilik ve Güvenilirlik Çalışması
Abstract
Hemşirelerin psikolojik, sosyal ve kültürel yönden güçlendirilmesi aidiyet duygusunu, iş tatminini artırmış tükenmişlik sendromunu azaltmıştır. Bu bakımdan hemşireleri güçlendiren ve motive eden somut davranışların ortaya konması önemlidir. Bu çalışmada, Yönetici Hemşirelerin Çalışan Hemşireleri Güçlendirici Davranışları Ölçeği (YH-ÇHGD) Türkçe formunun geçerlilik ve güvenilirliğinin doğrulanması amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma metodolojik tiptedir. Araştırmanın evrenini toplam 350 hemşire oluşturmuştur. Veri toplama işlemi 2021 yılı Şubat-Mart aylarında gerçekleştirilmiş olup, toplam 350 adet anket dağıtılmış ve 344 adet (%98.3) geri alınmıştır. Bunlardan yetersiz yanıt veren 8 anket çıkarılmış ve 336 adet anket analiz için kullanılmıştır. Ölçek çalışmalarında madde sayısının 5-10 katı katılımcıya ulaşılmalıdır. Bu nedenle, orijinal ölçekte bulunan 48 maddenin 7 katına ulaşılmıştır. Ölçek kapsam geçerliliğini 12 uzman değerlendirmiştir. Ölçeğin yapı geçerliliği doğrulayıcı faktör analiziyle, iç tutarlılığı Cronbach alfa katsayısıyla ve test-tekrar test güvenilirliği Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC) ile ölçülmüştür. Psikolojik güçlendirme ve YH-ÇHGD ölçekleri arasındaki doğrusal ilişki, Pearson’un korelasyon katsayısı ile ölçülmüştür. Analizlerde IBM SPSS 22 ve AMOS 22 programları kullanılmıştır. Yapı geçerliliği ölçümü için yapılan Doğrulayıcı Faktör Analizi sonucunda CMIN / DF değeri 1,493 olup (χ2 = 83.640, df = 56, p = .035) uygun bir model olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Model uyum indeksleri; RMSEA = .06, CFI = .96, TLI = .95, NFI = .92, GFI = .92, AGFI = .91’dir. Ölçeğin Cronbach alfa değeri .99 ve her bir alt ölçek için .92 ile .96 arasında değişmektedir. ICC değeri .95’dir. Psikolojik güçlendirme ile yönetici hemşirelerin güçlendirici davranışları arasında anlamlı ve pozitif yönde bir ilişki bulunmuştur (r = .75, p = .001). Türkçeye uyarlanan ölçek pratikte uygulanacak yeterli psikometrik özelliklere sahiptir. Yönetici hemşirelerin çalışan hemşireleri güçlendirici davranışlarının belirlenmesinde önemli olduğuna inandığımız YH-ÇHGD ölçeğini uygulamayı öneriyoruz.

Adaptation of Nurse Managers' Empowering Behaviors Scale for the Staff Nurses into Turkish: A Study of Validity and Reliability
Abstract
Empowering nurses psychologically, socially, and culturally has increased their sense of belonging and job satisfaction and decreased burnout syndrome. Therefore, it is important to reveal empowering and motivating real behaviors. In this study, it is aimed to confirm the validity and reliability of the Turkish form of Nurse Managers’ Empowering Behavioral Scale for Staff Nurses (NMEB-SN). The study is of methodological type. The population of the study includes 350 nurses. Data collection was performed in February-March 2021, a total of 350 survey forms were delivered and 344 (98.3%) were taken back. Among these, 8 questionnaires with insufficient answers were removed and 336 questionnaires were used for analysis. In scale studies, the participant number that 5-10 times the number of items should be reached. Therefore, 7 times of the 48 items included in the original scale were reached. The scale content validity was evaluated by 12 experts. The construct validity of the scale was measured by confirmatory factor analysis, the internal consistency by Cronbach alpha coefficient and the test-retest reliability by Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC). The linear relationship between the psychological empowerment and NMEB-SN was measured by Pearson’s correlation coefficient. IBM SPSS 22 and AMOS 22 were used in the analysis. CMIN / DF value was 1.493 (χ2 = 83.640, df = 56, p = .035) because of the Confirmatory Factor Analysis performed for construct validity and it was evaluated as a proper model. Model fit indices are RMSEA = .06, CFI = .96, TLI = .95, NFI = .92, GFI = .92, AGFI = .91. The Cronbach alpha value of the scale is .99 and it ranges between .92 and .96 for each subscale. ICC value is .95. A positive significant relationship was found between psychological empowerment and empowering behaviors of the executive nurses (r = .75, p = .001). The scale, which has been adapted into Turkish, has sufficient psychometric characteristics to be practiced. We recommend applying the NMEB-SN scale, which we believe is important in determining the nurse managers’ empowering behaviors for staff nurses.
