Abstract

AimTo develop a GHNC scale and verify the effects of nurses' compassion competence (CC) and transcultural self-efficacy (TSE) on GHNC. BackgroundGlobal health nursing competency (GHNC) is essential for professional nursing care for multicultural populations. MethodsUsing a cross-sectional design, data were collected from 318 nurses of recruited through convenience sampling. Factor analysis and multiple regressions were performed to measure GHNC and determine its influential factors, respectively. ResultsThe GHNC scale was developed with 15 items in four domains: perception of global society, cultural attitude, nursing practice, and communication skill. The communication factor of CC and cognitive factor of TSE significantly affected GHNC. ConclusionsThe GHNC scale has sufficient validity and reliability for use in nursing practice and research. It can be used to identify the current position of GHNC and develop programs to improve GHNC by enhancing nurses' CC and TSE.
