Abstract

Administration, Management, and Leadership Nursing Nursing Education Professional Issues and Trends
Background and Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate reliability and validity of the relational competency assessment instrument, Relational Insights 360 (RI-360) (Koloroutis & Trout, 2012), among 104 baccalaureate nursing students and 10 standardized patients (SPs) upon completion of a communication simulation. Methods The reliability of the RI-360 was determined by Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Interrater reliability of the RI-360 was measured between the SPs and the primary investigator with percentages. Factor analysis was run to evaluate the construct validity. Results The RI-360 was internally consistent with an alpha coefficient of 0.93. Interrater reliability for all items on the RI-360 was 42% between students' scores and SPs' scores and 38.9% between the Primary Investigator's scores and SPs' scores. Exploratory factor analysis showed that factor loadings ranged from 0.29 to 0.84. Conclusions The RI-360 appears to be a valid and reliable scale for use in measuring relational competency among nursing students and SPs.
