ÖZET
 Amaç: Bu çalışmada, Hemşirelik Öğrencileri İçin Periferik İntravenöz Kateter Yerleştirme Özgüven Ölçeği'nin Türkçe geçerlilik ve güvenilirliğinin yapılması amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışma, Mart-Haziran 2024 tarihleri arasında, 3 farklı devlet üniversitesinin hemşirelik bölümünde öğrenimine devam eden 587 hemşirelik öğrencisi ile metodolojik bir araştırma olarak yürütülmüştür. Verilerin toplanmasında ''Öğrenci Tanıtım Formu'' ve ''Hemşirelik Öğrencileri için Periferik İntravenöz Kateteri Yerleştirme Özgüven Ölçeği'' kullanılmıştır. Veriler SPSS 26.0 ve AMOS 23 programları kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde sayı, yüzde, ortalama, standart sapma, minimum, maksimum, Cronbach alfa güvenirlik katsayısı, faktör analizi yöntemleri, korelasyon analizi ve Path Diyagramı kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Ölçeğin içerik geçerlik indeksi 0,994, genel iç tutarlılık katsayısı ise 0,936 olarak oldukça güvenilir bulunmuştur. Doğrulayıcı Faktör Analizi ile uyum indeksi değerlerinin kabul edilebilir düzeyde olduğu ve modelin bu durumla uyumlu olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ölçek 3 alt boyut ve 15 maddeden oluşmaktadır. Bu araştırmada, Hemşirelik Öğrencileri İçin Periferik İntravenöz Kateter Yerleştirme Özgüven Ölçeği toplam puan ortalaması 3,81±0,63 saptanmıştır. Ayrıca öğrencilerin Periferik İntravenöz Kateter Kanül Güvenirliği alt boyutundan 3,81±0,67, periferik intravenöz kateter hazırlık ve güvenlik güvenirliği alt boyutundan 3,90±0,67, Periferik İntravenöz Kateter Öğrenme Güvenirliği alt boyutundan 3,72±0,69 puan aldığı belirlenmiştir. Sonuç: Ölçeğin Türkçe versiyonu, hemşirelik öğrencilerinin periferik intravenöz katater yerleştirmeyi öğrenme ve gerçekleştirme konusundaki öz güven düzeylerini belirlemek için kullanılabilecek geçerli ve güvenilir bir araçtır.

Anahtar Kelimeler: Hemşirelik öğrencisi; geçerlik ve güvenirlik; öz güven; periferik intravenöz kateter
ABSTRACT
 Objective: The present study aimed to assess the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Nursing Student Peripheral Intravenous Catheter Insertion Self-Confidence Scale. Material and Methods: The research was conducted as a methodological study between March and June 2024, involving 587 nursing students from 3 different public universities. Data were collected using the ''Student Information Form'', and the ''Peripheral Intravenous Catheter Insertion Self-Confidence Scale for Nursing Students'', and analyzed on the SPSS 26.0 and AMOS 23 software. Data evaluation was conducted using frequencies, percentages, standard deviation, minimum and maximum values, Cronbach's Alpha reliability coefficient, factor analyses methods, correlation analysis and Path Diagram. Results: The content validity index of the scale was found as 0.994, and the overall internal consistency coefficient as 0.936, which indicated a high level of reliability. Confirmatory Factor Analysis revealed that the fit indices were at acceptable levels, and the model was consistent with the case. The scale consists of 3 sub-dimensions and 15 items. In this study, the mean total score of the ''Peripheral Intravenous Catheter Insertion Self-Confidence Scale for Nursing Students'' for Nursing Students was 3.81±0.63. The peripheral intravenous catheter cannulation confidence reliability subscale was 3.81±0.67, the peripheral intravenous catheter preparation and securement confidence reliability subscale was 3.90±0.67, and the peripheral intravenous catheter learning confidence reliability subscale was 3.72±0.69. Conclusion: The Turkish version of the scale is a valid and reliable instrument to determine nursing students' self-confidence in learning and implementing peripheral intravenous catheter insertion.
