Abstract

This study evaluated the Turkish version of the Nurse Spiritual Therapeutic Scale for assessing oncology patients' and caregivers' needs. It involved 200 participants from July 2022 to May 2023. The scale demonstrated high validity (content validity index = 0.97) and good internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = 0.879). Factor analysis revealed a 20-item single-factor structure with satisfactory representation (factor loadings: 0.29-0.89). Item-total score correlations indicated moderate to strong relationships (0.236-0.761). The model showed a good fit (goodness-of-fit indices > 0.90). The Turkish version of the scale is valid and reliable for assessing oncology patients' and caregivers' spiritual care needs.
