| Summary: | Objective: The study aimed to examine the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Clients’ Perceptions of Providers’ Cultural Competency Instrument.Methods: A methodological design was used. The study was conducted with 224 patients between June 1 and December 30, 2022. Data were analyzed with IBM SPSS V23 and IBM AMOS V24. The linguistic, content, and construct validity analysis were used to assess the scale's validity. The scale's reliability was achieved using Cronbach's α, item-total correlations, and test-retest. Path coefficients were calculated with Maximum Likelihood in structural equation modeling. Model fit was decided with model fit indices.Results: According to our analysis, the final scale consisted of 19 items and 3 factors. Item-total correlations > .2 was obtained for all items. The construct validity analysis revealed that the model had a good fit; CMIN/DF=1.647, GFI= .901, CFI= .91, RMSEA= .054, SRMR= .076 and all path coefficients were significant (P< .001). Cronbach's alpha was found to be .81 for the scale. In addition, a good correspondence was found between the test-retest scores of all factors (P< .05). The patients' mean scores were 2.84 in factors 1 and 2 and 3.01 in factor 3. According to Tukey summability test, the scale was not recognized as summable (P< .001).Conclusion: The instrument is a valid and reliable tool to assess the cultural competence of nurses. |
