Purpose: This paper was conducted to validate the Korean version of the Peer Group Caring Interaction Scale (PGCIS-K) that measures caringbehaviors as experienced by nursing students.
Methods: Translation of the PGCIS-K was validated through forward-backward translationmethods. Survey data were collected from 218 nursing students in a nursing school. Construct validity and criterion-related validity wereevaluated. Internal consistency and the Guttman split-half coefficient were calculated to assess reliability.
Results: The PGIS-K showed reliabilityexcept for 4 items (Cronbach’s α=.91, Guttman split-half coefficient=.85), which were low (<.30) or negatively correlated with the totalscale. A 12-item reduced form of the PGCIS-K was developed by item-analysis and construct validity evidence. Factor loading for the 12items on 2 factors ranged from .47~.82, which explained 58.4% of the total variance. Two factors were named ‘modeling and assistance(Cronbach’s α=.87)’ and ‘communication and sharing (Cronbach’s α=.82)’. Convergent validity, discriminant validity, and criterion validity weresupported according to the correlation coefficients of the 2 factors with other measure.
Conclusion: The findings suggest preliminary evidencethat the 12-item PGCIS-K can be used to measure nursing students’ peer group caring interactions in Korea. Additional studies arerecommended to continue the psychometric evaluation of this scale. Also, it can be extended to measure graduate nursing students or staffnurses’ peer group caring interaction.
