Nurses’ attitudes toward patient aggression can influence their relationships with patients and clinical judgement. Therefore, it is crucial to identify these attitudes using a valid and reliable tool. The purpose of this study was to explore the psychometric properties of the Korean version of the Management of Aggression and Violence Attitude Scale (K-MAVAS). The scale was translated by an expert committee, and an exploratory factor analysis was conducted on a sample of 250 nurses. As a result, a four-factor structure consisting of 20 items emerged. The factors were labeled as ‘strategies on intervention’, ‘intrapersonal causal factor’, ‘perceived effectiveness of intervention’, and ‘interpersonal causal factor’. The cumulative explained variance of the tool was 51.5%, and the reliability of each factor ranged from 0.46 to 0.81. The results of this study showed that the factor structure of K-MAVAS differed from the original tool, and the reliability of some factors did not meet the criteria. Therefore, there is a need for further research to revalidate the validity and reliability of the tool in the future.
