The Construct Validity of the Nurse Stress Index, Coping Strategy Indicator, and Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire among Nurses in Thailand

Abstract

          The analysis was based on a sample of 200 Thai nurses working at 14 hospitals in Bangkok and three province along the eastern seaboard. Each questionnaire’s construct validity was evaluated by five criteria. Internal reliability was acceptable in all questionnaires, however factor redundancy, factor loadings, loadings on other factors, and factor replicability only provided excellent support for the Coping Strategy Indicator
