Cross-cultural adaptation and psychometric evaluation of the Chinese version of Hospital Culture of Nursing Research Scale (CHCNRS): a translation and validation study.
Article in BMC nursing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe culture of nursing research forms a critical foundation for advancing the nursing discipline and enhancing the quality of nursing care. In the context of China's unique healthcare environment and nursing practices, introducing localized tools that reflect cultural nuances is essential. Strengthening research capabilities, optimizing management systems, and promoting innovation and academic integrity tailored to Chinese hospitals are crucial for delivering improved patient care.
objectiveThe Hospital Culture of Nursing Research Scale (HCNRS) assesses nurses' perceptions of the nursing research culture within hospital settings. This study aimed to translate the HCNRS into Chinese and to evaluate the psychometric properties of this culturally adapted version to ensure its relevance and reliability in Chinese healthcare institutions.
methodsA total of 766 clinical nurses were recruited for this study through convenience sampling, in accordance with Kendall's sample size estimation method. The original scale was translated following Brislin' s guidelines. The validity of the instrument was assessed through item analysis, structural validity, and reliability testing. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS and AMOS software.
resultsThe Chinese version of the 32-item scale demonstrated good psychometric properties. Exploratory factor analysis identified five factors, accounting for 56.112% of the total variance. Confirmatory factor analysis showed excellent fit indices: CMIN/DF = 1.067, RMSEA = 0.012, GFI = 0.941, NFI = 0.919, IFI = 0.911, TLI = 0.994, and CFI = 0.994. Reliability measures were also robust, with a total Cronbach's α coefficient of 0.906, and Retest reliability was 0.864.
conclusionThe CHCNRS demonstrates strong psychometric properties and is well-suited for assessing Chinese nurses' perceptions of the culture of nursing research in hospitals. Its application can inform hospital management strategies, support evidence-based policy-making, and promote a research-supportive environment in clinical settings.
