Article The Practice Environment Scale of the Nursing Work Index Short Form in Turkish: A Psychometric Study(BMC, 2026) Arici, Furkan Cihat; Harmancı Seren, Arzu Kader; Seren, Arzu Kader Harmanci; Ayan, GüzinBackgroundThe work environment is a concept encompassing factors that increase or decrease a nurse's ability to practice the nursing profession competently and provide high-quality care. This study aims to adapt the short form of the Nursing Work Index-Nursing Work Environment Assessment Scale, which is used in many countries to evaluate the nursing work environment, to Turkish.MethodsThe study sample consisted of 711 nurses. For this study, data were collected from the researchers' personal social media accounts (WhatsApp, LinkedIn, and Instagram) between October and December of 2024. The Turkish version of the short form of the Practice Environment Scale from the Nursing Work Environment Index was used to collect the data. After creating the Turkish version of the instrument through translation and back-translation and collecting data, the researchers conducted content validity analyses, construct validity tests, and internal consistency analyses to assess the instrument's psychometric properties.ResultsThe items' content validity ratios were 0.93, and correlation coefficients varied between 0.605 and 0.523. The one structure accounted for 56.122% of the total variance. PES-5 scale findings: chi & sup2;/df 3.76, CFI 0.973, TLI 0.946, SRMR 0.031, RMSEA 0.090, CR 0.62. The standardized factor loadings for the scale items ranged from 0.610 to 0.743. The scale was compatible with its five items and one-factor structure The items' standardized factor loadings ranged from 0.370 to 0.575. The Cronbach's alpha consistency value was 0.804.ConclusionA short form of the practice environment scale of the Nursing Work Index is a valid and reliable tool in Turkish.Article Psychometric Evaluation of the Person-Centred Climate Questionnaire - Staff Version(BMC, 2025) Arici, Furkan Cihat; Harmanci Seren, Arzu Kader; Edvardsson, DavidBackgroundValid and reliable instruments are needed to assess person-centredness that serve as quality care indicators. Person-Centred Climate Questionnaire - staff version is an interculturally used tool to evaluate person-centredness in clinical settings. This study aimed to examine the psychometrics of the tool in the Turkish language.MethodsThis was a methodological study involving a sample of 140 nurses. One of the researchers collected data using the Turkish version of the questionnaire-staff version in a private hospital in Istanbul. After performing the language validity steps, the researchers analysed the content validity ratios of the items and the questionnaire's content validity index, and they performed exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis to validate the construct. The internal consistency of the subdimensions and the questionnaire was determined utilising a Cronbach's Alpha test.ResultsThe content validity ratios of the items ranged from 0.84 to 1, and the correlation coefficients ranged from 0.50 to 0.69. The three-factor structure accounted for 70.40% of the total variance. The items' standardised factor loads were between 0.501 and 1.140. The Cronbach's alpha consistency value was 0.90.ConclusionThe staff version of the questionnaire is an adequately valid and reliable instrument in the Turkish language.
