Resum:
The attitude adopted by nurses in relation to family is a key element in the process of caring. However, does the nurse have a positive attitude to provide family-centered care? The scale Families' Importance in Nursing Care - Nurses Attitudes (FINC-NA) is an instrument that measures nurses’ attitudes toward the importance of caring for families from a general nursing point of view. The aims of this thesis are cross-cultural adaptation and validate the Spanish version of the scale FINC-NA in the hospital. The study, which is metric and descriptive, has been developed in three phases: 1. Cross-cultural adaptation process, 2. Validation process and 3. Statistical analysis of the Spanish version of the scale: La actitud enfermera – La importancia de la familia en los cuidados de enfermería (AE-IFCE). The internal consistency of the AE-IFCE scale was 0.90 equal to temporal stability. The factor analysis confirmed the proposed four factors model. The sample (n = 173) represents an 85.6% stake. The total scale score was 81. Should be noted that female nurses have received a slightly higher score than male nurses. Also, nurses who finished their studies more than 6 years ago obtained a higher score. It can be concluded that the scale AE-IFCE, once adapted and validated in Spanish, has allowed to identify that nurses surveyed have a positive attitude towards the importance of including the family in the care process in hospitals and have helped to leave open lines for future research.
