Objective

To translate the Nurse-Patient Therapeutic Interaction Scale into Chinese and to evaluate its psychometric properties.

Methods

The Nurse-Patient Therapeutic Interaction Scale was translated based on the modified Brislin translation model.The Chinese version of the Nurse-Patient Therapeutic Interaction Scale was culturally adapted and preliminary survey before formal validation.A total of 549 clinical nurses were selected from tertiary grade A hospitals in Jiangsu province from September to October 2025 using the convenience sampling method.Classical test theory was adopted to examine the reliability and validity of the scale.Multi-dimensional item response theory was further applied to analyze the item discrimination parameters,item difficulty parameters,and item information functions,to comprehensively evaluate the psychometric performance of the scale.

Results

During cultural adaptation,the item-content validity index of the Chinese version of the Nurse-Patient Therapeutic Interaction Scale ranged from 0.667 to 1.000.The scale-content validity index/average was 0.908.Exploratory factor analysis extracted 3 common factors consisting 17 items in total,with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 74.503%.After removing one item,the results of multi-dimensional item response theory showed that the item discrimination parameters ranged from 2.516 to 21.805.The item difficulty parameters ranged from -3.217 to 0.401.The scale provided sufficient measurement information in the low-to-medium range of therapeutic interaction levels.After multi-dimensional item response theory analysis,the overall Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0.981.The split-half reliability coefficient was 0.972.Confirmatory factor analysis revealed an excellent fit of the external verification model.

Conclusions

The Chinese version of the Nurse-Patient Therapeutic Interaction Scale has excellent discrimination,reliability,validity,and relatively low item difficulty.The scale could effectively measure the level of therapeutic interaction among clinical nurses.
