Cross-cultural adaptation and psychometric evaluation of the Chinese version of the sickness presenteeism scale- nurse (C-SPS-N): a cross-sectional 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 9 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
backgroundCurrently, no standardized evaluation instrument exists to assess the impact of presenteeism on nurses' productivity and the quality of care they provide. This study aimed to translate the Sickness Presenteeism Scale-Nurse (SPS-N) into Chinese and evaluate its reliability and validity among Chinese nurses.
methodsThis study first translated the 21-item English version of the SPS-N scale into Chinese using Brislin's model. Then, six experts in the relevant field were invited to evaluate the item content validity index (I-CVI) of the translated scale. Using a convenience sampling method, 503 clinical nurses meeting the inclusion criteria were recruited from tertiary hospitals in Jinzhou, Liaoning Province, China. The reliability of the scale was assessed through internal consistency, split-half reliability, and test-retest reliability. To examine the structural validity of the Chinese version of the SPS-N (C-SPS-N), exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was conducted first, followed by confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to further assess its construct validity.
resultsThe C-SPS-N demonstrated strong psychometric properties, with a Cronbach's α coefficient of 0.924. The item content validity index (I-CVI) for individual items ranged from 0.830 to 1.000. The split-half reliability was 0.750, and the test-retest reliability was 0.895. The four-factor exploratory factor model explained 78.354% of the total variance, indicating a robust factor structure. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) produced model fit indices of CMIN/DF = 2.527, RMSEA = 0.067, AGFI = 0.857, TLI = 0.941, IFI = 0.950, CFI = 0.949, GFI = 0.900, and PGFI = 0.692. All indices fell within acceptable ranges, confirming a satisfactory model fit. Both convergent validity and discriminant validity were adequately supported.
conclusionThis study strictly adhered to the Brislin translation model and successfully introduced the SPS-N scale, which demonstrated strong reliability and validity in the Chinese cultural context. The Chinese version of the SPS-N (C-SPS-N) serves as an effective and reliable tool for assessing nurses' presenteeism behaviors.
