Abstract

Instruments that measure clinical learning environments have lacked rigorous methodological approaches in their development and validity.
Development research using a survey design approach was conducted for an instrument to evaluate the quality of nursing students' clinical practice placement.
The development and validity of the Student Nurse Subjective Evaluation of Completed Clinical Practice Placement (SNEP) resulted in a 40-item instrument to evaluate nursing students' experience of their completed clinical practice placement. Adequate level of model fit was indicated (χ[719] = 1909.47, < .001) for the confirmatory factor analysis (χ/ = 2.66, comparative fit index = 0.92, Tucker-Lewis Index = 0.92, and root-mean-square error of approximation = 0.07). Standardized factor loadings were high, ranging from 0.68 to 0.95.
The SNEP was designed and validated incorporating the perspective of various nurse stakeholders and can be used in both research and clinical learning environments. .
