Abstract
Objectives: to analyze the psychometric properties of the ProQOL-BR instrument in hospital nursing professionals.
Methods: a methodological study to validate the ProQOL-BR. Confirmatory factor analysis, assessment of local and global adjustment quality, Pearson hypothesis testing and Cronbach's alpha internal consistency analysis were used.
Results: a total of 490 professionals participated. The model presents adequate quality due to factor weights (λ≥ 0.40), acceptable overall fit quality and adequate chi-square ratio and degrees of freedom (χ2/g.1=2.51) for the parameters of CFI (0.923), GFI (0.902), TLI (0.914) and RMSEA (0.042). In terms of validity, it was shown to be adequate with CC=0.89. The internal consistency obtained by standardized Cronbach's alpha was 0.761. Criterion validity was shown to be favorable with significant correlations (0.001).
Conclusions: the instrument was validated regarding content, criteria and reliability. Three questions were removed from the original instrument, ProQOL-BR, leaving the final instrument with 25 questions.
期刊介绍:
The Revista Brasileira de Enfermagem created in 1932, March 20 is the official publication of the Associação Brasileira de Enfermagem (Brazilian Nursing Association) has as purpose to disseminate the scientific production from different nursing interest areas of knowledge, including those which express the political project of the Association. The Revista Brasileira de Enfermagem is the oldest journal of the Brazilian nursing. Its first title was "Annaes de Enfermagem" from 1932 to 1941, being entitled Anais de Enfermagem" until 1955, when its title was changed to the current.
