“…Invalid questionnaires, such as those for which only one option was repeated for all questions or for which there was obvious logical confusion, were screened out, and 402 valid questionnaires were ultimately obtained, for an effective recovery rate of 98.04%. Two weeks later, 30 parents and caregivers randomly selected from the participants used the same questionnaire again to assess the retest reliability of the Chinese version [ 18 ].…”

Background Fever is one of the most common clinical symptoms of respiratory diseases in children. Once the child has a fever, parents and caregivers are mainly concerned that the child may have a febrile convulsion. A lack of cognitive ability not only leads to anxiety but also aggravates or delays the time of children’s medical treatment and even seriously affects the prognosis because of improper management of fever patients.Therefore, it is necessary to clarify the degree of mastery of knowledge related to febrile convulsions, implement targeted guidance and health education, and ensure that parents and caregivers receive correct and reasonable first aid treatment. The purpose of this study was to translate the Febrile Convulsion Knowledge Scale for Parents/Caregivers into Chinese and to verify its reliability and validity for Chinese parents and caregivers of children. Methods The Brislin traditional translation model was used to translate the Febrile Convulsion Knowledge Scale for Parents/Caregivers from English to Chinese, following authorization from the original author of the scale. This involved literal translation, back translation, and cultural adaptation. A convenience sampling method was used to select 402 parents and caregivers of children in the pediatric ward and pediatric infusion clinic of a Grade III hospital in Liaoning Province. The item analysis method was employed to assess item differentiation, while the Delphi method was used to analyze content validity. Scale reliability was evaluated through the calculation of internal consistency and test-retest reliability. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were conducted to explore and verify the underlying factor structure and scale validity. Results The Chinese version of the Febrile Convulsion Knowledge Scale for Parents/Caregivers consists of 3 dimensions and 8 items. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was 0.828, with each dimension having coefficients of 0.806, 0.720, and 0.702. The split-half reliability and test-retest reliability were 0.716 and 0.790, respectively. The Chinese version has good reliability. Exploratory factor analysis revealed that the Bartlett sphericity test was 394.52 (p < 0.001) and that the KMO value was 0.802 > 0.600, indicating suitability for factor analysis. Principal component analysis and orthogonal rotation of maximum variance were performed on the data, and items with a load greater than 0.40 within a single factor were selected for inclusion. The resulting three-factor structure explained 70.78% of the total variance. All model fitting indices were within the acceptable range, indicating the good structural validity of the Chinese version. The results of both exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses support this conclusion. Conclusions The Chinese version of the Febrile Convulsion Knowledge Scale for Parents/Caregivers has good reliability and validity. It can be used as a tool for clinical pediatric nurses to evaluate the knowledge of parents and caregivers of children with febrile convulsion and provide the basis for the design and implementation of targeted training plans according to the results obtained from the Chinese scale.

Background There is a lack of an evaluation instrument to gauge how presenteeism practices affect nurses' productivity at work and the quality of the medical treatment they provide. The purpose of this study was to translate the Sickness Presenteeism Scale-Nurse (SPS-N) into the Chinese version of the SPS-N and to verify its reliability and validity in Chinese nurses.Methods The SPS-N was translated according to the Brislin translation model after authorization by the original author. A convenience sampling method was used and the reliability and validity of the scale were tested among 503 Chinese nurses.Results The Cronbach's ɑ of the Chinese SPS-N was 0.924, and the content validity of the items ranged from 0.830 to 1.000. The four-factor exploratory factor model was used to explain 78.354% of the total variance. CMIN/DF = 2.527, RMSEA = 0.067, AGFI = 0.857, TLI = 0.941, IFI = 0.950 ,CFI = 0.949, GFI = 0.900, and PGFI = 0.692 were the model fit outcomes in the validation factor analysis. All of the model fit markers fell within reasonable bounds.Conclusion The reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the SPS-N can be used to evaluate the influence of nurses' presenteeism behavior on job performance. To inform nursing managers in developing programs and interventions to improve the performance of clinical nurses.
