Abstract: Objective: To investigate the highly-recognized job evaluation elements among nurses from general hospitals in an attempt to establish a nurse-related job evaluation element system for general hospitals followed with reliability and validity analyses. Methods: 710 nurses from six general hospitals in Beijing were selected by stratified random sampling for the questionnaire. Evaluation dimensions were obtained by the element analysis and elements were defined through Varimax.A reliability analysis by calculating Cronbach's α coefficient and a validity analysis with structural equation modeling were sequentially conducted on the system. Results: Three elements were extracted as evaluation dimensions and 23 elements were retained, upon which the nurse-related job evaluation element system for general hospitals were established. The internal consistency of the dimensions was high based on the calculation of Cronbach's α ; with related coefficients all above 0.8.Conclusion: A nurse-oriented job evaluation element system for general hospitals was established with a reasonable reliability and validity. The system might reveal the characteristics of nursing positions more pertinently and thus provide reference for the second distribution among nurses in general hospitals.
