Development of a Korean clinical decision-making ability scale for hospital nurses.
Article in BMC nursing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundA hospital nurse's clinical decision-making ability is an important core competency that identifies and solves patient problems in nursing practice. This study aimed to develop a Korean clinical decision-making scale for hospital nurses, and verify its validity and reliability.
methodsA methodological design that develops a scale was used. A total of 71 Preliminary items on clinical decision-making of hospital nurses were selected using concept validity analysis of and expert opinion on 51 candidate items derived through literature review and qualitative interviews. We conducted a questionnaire survey with 371 nurses who in direct nursing and decision-making. The collected data were analyzed using exploratory factor analysis and confirmative factor analysis with SPSS 23.0 and AMOS 24.0 program.
resultsExploratory factor analysis was performed with principal axis factor analysis and Varimax rotation. Nine factors that accounted for 65.5% of the total variance were identified by deleting the items that not meet the condition that the commonality should be 0.30 or more and the factor loading over 0.50. The correlation coefficient between this scale and the Jenkins' clinical decision-making perception scale was r = 0.70 (p < 0.001), which determined concurrent validity. The internal consistency for the scale was Cronbach's α = 0.84, and this was developed with a total of 36 items.
conclusionA Korean clinical decision-making ability scale for hospital nurses was developed consisting of nine factors and 36 items with a five-point Likert. The Korean clinical decision-making ability scale for hospital nurses can measure clinical decision-making ability from various aspects that were not previously reflected.
