The consistency study of Chinese version of stressors in nursing students and the student nurse stress index scale

Objective To explore the consistency between the Chinese Version of Stressors in Nursing Students (SINS-CHI) and the Student Nurse Stress Index Scale (SNSI-CHI) in assessing the pressure of undergraduate nursing students. Methods A total of 960 nursing undergraduates from three universities in Henan province were randomly selected.SINS-CHI and SNSI-CHI were applied to all subjects and SPSS 21.0 was used to analyze the validity and reliability. Results The total score of SINS-CHI was (112.73±26.07). The Cronbach's α was 0.926, the Guttman's partial reliability coefficient was 0.893, the test-retest reliability was 0.820, the content validity index (CVI) was 0.890, the sensitivity was 70.0%, and the specificity was 62.3%.The Yoden index was 0.323 and the area under the ROC curve was 0.710.The total score of SNSI-CHI was (58.71±14.18). The Cronbach's α was 0.893, Guttman split-half reliability coefficient was 0.829, test-retest reliability was 0.966, CVI was 0.954, sensitivity was 71.4%, specificity was 63.6%.The Yoden index was 0.350 and the area under the ROC curve was 0.714. Conclusion The consistency of SINS-CHI and SNSI-CHI is good. Key words: Scale; Pressure; Undergraduate nursing student; Consistency
