Description
Talal Alharbi translates and validates a questionnaire on how nurses see community care, in this 2026 study. Health systems worldwide are shifting care into communities, and that shift needs nurses who believe in the work. No sturdy Arabic tool existed to measure those perceptions. Following World Health Organization translation guidance, the author adapted the SCOPE scale and tested it on three hundred seventy-four registered nurses in Saudi Arabia.
Statistical checks, including factor analysis, examined whether the Arabic version measures what the original does, reliably and in the same shape. A validated scale lets managers and educators survey attitudes before launching community programs. Measurement tools are unglamorous infrastructure, but reforms stall without them.
