Abstract: Objective: To translate the Academic Support in the Practicum Scale (EAPAP) into Chinese and evaluate its reliability and validity. Methods: After obtaining authorization from the original authors, the standard procedures of double-back translation and cross-cultural adaptation were conducted. The reliability and validity of the Chinese version of EAPAP were tested in 253 nursing students. Results: The Chinese version of EAPAP included 23 items and factor analysis extracted four common factors, which explained 83.094% of the total variance. Cronbach's α coefficient was 0.958, and Cronbach's α for four dimensions ranged from 0.924 to 0.981. The split-half coefficient was 0.960 (P<0.001). Spearman-Brown coefficients between four dimensions and scale varied from 0.728 to 0.858. Spearman-Brown coefficients of 4 dimensions varied from 0.378 to 0.662. Item-Content Validity Index (I-CVI) ranged from 0.800 to 1.000 and Scale-Content Validity Index (S-CVI) was 0.950. Conclusions: The Chinese version of EAPAP is suggested to be valid and reliable and can be used among Chinese nursing students.
