Reliability and Repeatability of the Instrument for the Assessment of Stress in Nursing Students (ASNS). Medicina. https://doi.org/10.3390/medicina551006341010-660Xhttps://hdl.handle.net/10115/27639Background and objectives: Stress in nursing students is a very common experience, especially when they face clinical practice. The aims of this study were to perform a transcultural adaptation and to examine the reliability and repeatability of the Instrument for the Assessment of Stress in Nursing Students for a Spanish population. Methods: A test–retest analysis was carried out in two face‐to‐face sessions with the students with a lapse of 10 days between the two sessions. A cross‐sectional descriptive study was carried out between the months of May and June 2018. Sixtyfour nursing students were recruited with a consecutive sampling method that targeted individuals in the freshman class. Results: A good internal consistency was shown for the total score (α = 0.8861) and for each of the six domains. The test–retest reliability, using the Wilcoxon paired test, was not significant, indicating no differences between the total scores or the domain scores (p ≥ 0.05). Finally, Bland and Altman plots of visual distributions did not show differences between the total scores and the domain scores. Conclusion: The Instrument for the Assessment of Stress in Nursing Students was shown to be a reliable tool for measuring stress factors among Spanish nursing students.engAtribución 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/stressnursing studentsquestionnaireinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article10.3390/medicina55100634info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
