Purpose: This study was conducted to verify the validity and reliability of the modified Transition Shock Scale for use among nursing students.
Methods: From March 8?April 3, 2018, 207 nursing students participated in this study and were asked to complete self-reported questionnaires, including transition shock, clinical stress, and adapting to clinical practicums. The IBM SPSS Win 18.0 and AMOS 18.0 programs were used for data analysis.
Results: A confirmatory factor analysis supported good convergent and discriminant validities (x²/df=1.58, TLI=.92, CFI=.95, RMSEA=.053, AVE=.51-.68, CR=.75-.68). Correlations among transition shock, clinical stress (r=.34, p<.001), and adapting to clinical practicums (r=-.54, p<.001) were significant. Cronbach’s alpha for the overall scale was .85, and for the six subfactors it ranged from .65 to .75.
Conclusion: The findings suggest that the 17-item transition shock questionnaire is an appropriate instrument for measuring nursing students’ transition shock with good validity and reliability.
