“…A study (Lopes, Azeredo, & Rodrigues, 2013) which adopted the ICAS Portuguese version, found that ICAS has shown a high internal consistency in reliability analysis and excellent temporal stability. Thus they recommended ICAS as an appropriate tool for assessing interpersonal communication skills.…”

“…Currently, there are a small number of instruments for this purpose that can be applied to different communication contexts related to the management of nursing care. In a literature review conducted by the authors, eight instruments were found related to the subject showed reliability with satisfactory internal consistency (Anthoine et al., 2014; Arthur, 1999; Costa et al., 2016; Johnson et al., 2014; Klakovich & Delacruz, 2006; Lopes et al., 2013; Molinuevo & Torrubia, 2011; Puggina & Silva, 2014).…”

Aims To describe the theoretical procedures for the development of the Professional Nursing Communication Competence instrument, determine the content validity and describe the pilot test application. Background Measuring instruments must be developed in accordance with the context and communication process by adopting theoretical procedures based on competence structures to support quality patient‐centred care and nursing management. Methods A methodological study was employed. The instrument was developed by using content‐validated theoretical construct in accordance with 33 communication theories followed by semantic analysis and content validity by experts. The instrument was tested over three phases: before the lecture on professional nursing communication competence, after the simulation scenario experience and after debriefing. Results The instrument showed an extremely high agreement (CVI = 0.99). Linear regression suggested three domains of the 46‐item content‐validated instrument comprising knowledge (18 items), skills (12 items) and attitudes (16 items). Conclusion The instrument was found to measure professional communication competence with a high theoretical reliability of the contexts and processes through a simulation strategy. Implications for Nursing Management Nursing educators, managers and staff can adopt the Professional Nursing Communication Competence (IMC‐CPE) instrument to improve the effectiveness level of knowledge, skills and attitudes to reduce misunderstanding among team members and health care errors.

Objectives: The purposes of this study are to evaluate the interpersonal communication capabilities in basic nursing education and to develop an interpersonal communication skill scale with reference to microcounseling theory. Results: A quantitative analytical design was employed that involved administering a 28-item self-efficacy survey with reference to microcounseling techniques to 208s-year female nursing students. Measurement data include the nursing student version of the communication skill preliminary scale draft, the generalized self-efficacy scale, and age. Criterion-related validity was verified through descriptive statistics, exploratory factor analysis, and correlation analysis. Factor analysis resulted in a 4-factor structure based on eigenvalues and scree plot. The reliability coefficient shows a correlation between the total score of each factor and the total score of the generalized self-efficacy scale at the 1% level. On the nursing student communication skill scale, the factor structure comprises four factors and 21 items; adjusting the items by confirming the contents of the question sentences realized the structure of the four factors, which show satisfactory reliability, and 20 scale items. Of these, 18 are classified according to microcounseling techniques. This study demonstrates the content and criterion-related validity of the scale.
