Abstract
This study was undertaken to validate and assess the reliability of the Korean version of professional quality of life scale (K-ProQOL) that measures the compassion satisfaction, compassion fatigue and burnout among clinical nurses in Korea. We conducted an internal consistency reliability and construct validity by applying confirmatory factor analysis using SPSS WIN (24.0) and AMOS (18.0). Survey data were collected from 210 nurses working at three tertiary hospitals located in Seoul. Reliable internal consistency was achieved for the K-ProQOL, with a Cronbach's alpha for the total scale and three sub scale values of 0.72-0.90. Factor loadings on three subscales of the 30 items considered ranged from 0.25 to 0.82. The model was validated by confirmatory factor analysis (RMSEA 0.05-0.1, GFI >0.7, CFI >0.7). The findings of this study demonstrate that the K-ProQOL has satisfactory construct validity and reliability to measure compassion satisfaction, compassion fatigue and burnout among clinical nurses in Korea. This is the first study assessing the validity and reliability of the Korean version of professional quality of life scale for clinical nurses in Korea.
