Abstract
ABSTRACT Student evaluations of teaching have considerable impact on teaching improvement. However, there is no reliable instrument that can reflect nursing students’ perspectives of teaching evaluations in China. To design a student-centred evaluation instrument of nursing teaching in China, we developed and psychometrically tested the Nursing Course Experience Questionnaire (NCEQ). A literature review, student focus group interviews, student group discussion, Delphi survey, and a pilot test were used to confirm the content of the questionnaire. The data from 581 nursing students were randomly divided into sample A (n = 283) for exploratory factor analysis and sample B (n = 298) for confirmatory factor analysis and questionnaire reliability assessment. The final version of the NCEQ included 31 items and 6 sub-scales. The Cronbach’s α was 0.968 for the whole questionnaire and >0.751 for the sub-scales, which indicated that the NCEQ was an effective instrument that can be employed to evaluate nursing students’ perspectives on teaching in China.
