Psychometric properties of the Korean version of the oncofertility barriers scales among nurses: A methodological study

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This study aimed to examine the psychometric properties of the Korean version of the Oncofertility Barrier Scale (K-OBS).

Methods

This methodological study investigated the validity and reliability of the K-OBS for measuring barriers to oncofertility care among nurses. A total of 270 nurses who had experience in rendering nursing care to cancer survivors were recruited, and the instrument was translated, assessed for content validity, and tested using a preliminary survey.

Reliability was assessed using Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's omega.

Results

The K-OBS demonstrated satisf
