Italian cross-cultural validation of the Scale for the Image of the Nursing Profession.
Article in Journal of research in nursing : JRN, 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
Background: Despite being a university-educated, evidence-based profession, nursing's social image often lags behind its professional reality, particularly in Italy. Aims: To translate and validate the Scale for the Image of the Nursing Profession (SINP) for the Italian context. Methods: This study followed a six-phase process. A single sample was randomly split for exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Internal consistency was assessed using Cronbach's alpha. Test-retest reliability was evaluated using Pearson's correlation coefficient (r) on a convenience sample. Results: The demographic characteristics of the two sub-groups (sub-group A: Conclusions: The I-SINP is a reliable, culturally sensitive tool for assessing public perceptions of nursing in Italy. It provides a valuable resource for policymakers, educators and organisations in enhancing the visibility and recognition of the nursing profession, providing a solid foundation for improving its societal image and, thereby, supporting recruitment and retention within the profession.
