Özet

Aim The aim of this study is to perform the validity and reliability study of the Turkish version of the Management of Workplace Violence Competence Scale (MWVCS) for Nursing Students. Method The methodological and cross-sectional study design was used in the method of the study. The research was carried out with 300 nursing students in Turkey. Data were collected using the personal information form and MWVCS. Results Explanatory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis results confirmed the four-factor structure of the scale. Cronbach's alpha, item-total correlation, test-retest analysis, and equivalent form analysis showed high reliability. The MWVCS consists of 28 items on a five-point Likert-type scale. Four factors explained 88.729 of the total variance explained. The content validity index of the scale is 0.99. Cronbach's alpha of the scale was 0.880 and test-retest correlations were found as 0.76. Conclusion The Turkish version of the MWVCS is a valid and reliable tool for assessing students' workplace violence.
