Reliability and validity of the Chinese version of patient safety culture scale in medication administration.
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 key idea in all phases of health care is patient safety. The development of a patient safety culture in hospitals greatly depends on the importance nurses focus on patient safety when administering medication. A scale to evaluate patient safety culture in medication administration is currently lacking. China has not yet adopted the patient safety culture scale in medication administration, despite the fact that it was created in Turkey.
objectivesThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the Patient Safety Culture Scale in Medication Administration in the context of Chinese clinical nursing.
methodsIn January 2025, 492 nurses in China were selected for the survey using a convenience sampling method. The reliability of the translated scale was evaluated using Cronbach's α coefficient, split-half reliability, and test-retest reliability. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were employed to assess structural validity. The data was analyzed using SPSS 22.0 and Amos 24.0.
resultsThe Cronbach's α coefficient of the Chinese version of Patient Safety Culture Scale in Medication Administration was 0.898, the split-half reliability was 0.803, and the test-retest reliability was 0.916. EFA revealed a robust two-factor model that accounted for 77.339% of the variance, the CFA results validated the consistency of the two factors, with CMIN/DF = 2.203, CFI = 0.979, IFI = 0.979, and GFI = 0.920, supporting the efficacy of the scale in assessing the patient safety culture in medication administration.
conclusionThe Chinese version of Patient Safety Culture Scale in Medication Administration demonstrated favourable reliability and validity among nurses. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: Not applicable.
