Abstract: (173 Views)
Aims The study seeks to ascertain the instruments used in research pertaining to the area under evaluation, as well as the validity of these instruments.
Information and Methods The instruments for evaluating nurses' experiences in traditional and complementary medicine (T&CM) can become tools to support the enhancement of nurses' competencies in providing holistic care and meeting patients' cultural needs. An overview of existing instruments will allow researchers to identify the most valid and reliable instruments for nursing practice. A review is conducted on six databases (PubMed, ScienceDirect, DOAJ, Taylor & Francis, Wiley, and GARUDA). Additionally, the references of selected articles are also examined.
Findings A total of 18 relevant studies from 12 countries across continents, with the majority from Asia, are included. The domains assessed include nurses' knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, practices, and communication related to T&CM. Although most instruments have been validated, some studies do not report tests of validity and reliability.
Conclusion As many instruments are used in different countries and cultural environments, the validity of these instruments should be tested more frequently. Researchers and nursing managers need to find appropriate tools based on the characteristics of the instruments and their validity in evaluating nurses' experiences with T&CM.
