Refinement and Validation of the Team Effectiveness Scale for Nursing Units.
Article in Risk management and healthcare policy, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Purpose: Understanding that the complexity and dynamic nature of the nursing care setting creates diverse conditions for teamwork is important when developing tools to measure nursing unit team effectiveness. The Team Effectiveness Scale for Nursing Units (TES-NU), based on the Integrated Team Effectiveness Model, was developed without confirmatory factor analysis and only tested on one nursing organization. It needs further research to prove its validity and reliability. This study aims to refine and validate the TES-NU in various nursing organizations. Methods: We designed this methodological study to refine the TES-NU by establishing its validity and reliability. The study included 330 clinical nurses from six general hospitals in South Korea, selected via convenience sampling. The TES-NU's refinement process includes item analysis, exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, item analysis, and convergent validity. Results: The KMO of 22 preliminary items was 0.89, the cumulative variance of the five factors was 67.58%, and the commonality was >0.40. Confirmatory factor analysis indicated the revised model fit well with better indices: CMIN/DF = 1.687, CFI = 0.936, TLI = 0.924, RMSEA = 0.059, and SRMR = 0.057. We simplified the refined scale to 22 items in 5 subdomains: "head nurses leadership", "job satisfaction", "cohesion", "work performance", and "nurses competence". Convergent validity (r = 0.69, p < 0.001) and reliability (Cronbach's alpha = 0.92) were validated for the revised TES-NU. Conclusion: A refined TES-NU has tested their validity and reliability. Nursing managers can use this tool to manage the performance of individual nurses as well as nursing units, which will contribute to improving the work performance of the nursing organization.
