ABSTRACT
Background and Purpose:
Given the broad availability of instruments developed to assess cultural competence, there is a need to develop psychometric properties of existing instruments so they might be adapted accordingly. The purpose of this study was to conduct a psychometric evaluation of the Intercultural Competence Scale (ICS) to ensure its validity and reliability of measurement.Methods:
The psychometric evaluation included scale selection and construction, psychometric testing, and instrument validation. Data analysis methods included item analysis, internal consistency reliability, and exploratory factor analysis.Results:
Participants in this longitudinal study included 215 nursing students from a selected university. The ICS adopted three instruments modified into a 21-item tool.Conclusion:
This study provides a foundation for future research to develop a modified instrument for measuring cultural competence.Palavras-chave
