Abstract
Background and Purpose: We utilized the Perceived Racism Scale-Racism on the Job subscale-to assess how frequently Black nurses experienced racism on the job in the past year (ROTJ-Y) and throughout their lifetime (ROTJ-L). We aimed to assess the reliability and assess construct validity of each subscale in a sample of 53 nurses. Methods: Reliability was evaluated using coefficient alphas, item correlations, and interitem correlations. Construct validity was examined using exploratory factor analysis. Results: Results demonstrated that the subscales are reliable and valid. Coefficient alphas for the ROTJ-Y and ROTJ-L were .93 and .91, respectively. Exploratory factor analysis revealed a unidimensional factor for both subscales. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that the Racism on the Job subscales are psychometrically sound measures of workplace racism among Black nurses.
