Abstract

A 3-phase study was conducted to develop and psychometrically evaluate the Patients' Perceptions of their Nurse-Patient Relations as Healing Transformations (RELATE) Scale. There is a lack of tools measuring nurse-patient relationship dynamics from a unitary-transformative paradigm to evaluate the patient's experience of what works to enhance their well-becoming. The 35-item scale was completed by 311 adults with chronic illness. The Cronbach α for the 35-item scale was 0.965 suggesting good internal consistency. Principal components analyses yielded a 17-item, 2-component solution explaining 60.17% of the total variance. This theoretically driven and psychometrically sound scale will contribute to quality-of-care data.
