AB  - BACKGROUND: Highly competent clinical faculty is a prerequisite for graduating 
      competent nurses, and it is very important to explore the comprehensive ability 
      and post competence of clinical nursing teachers (CNT). OBJECTIVE: To construct 
      the competency evaluation elements of clinical nursing teachers and test the 
      reliability and validity of the scale. DESIGN: A Delphi study. SETTINGS: 34 Grade 
      A tertiary hospitals and eight colleges and universities in China, covering 14 
      provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the Central 
      Government. METHODS: Modified Delphi method was used in this study. Between 
      August 2018 and May 2019, 40 experts participated in three rounds of consultation 
      to build the CNT competency assessment scale. The expert coordination coefficient 
      (W) and the coefficient of variation (CV) were used to examine the level of 
      coordination and concentration of expert advice. Then, the reliability and 
      validity of the scale were tested. Using the convenient sampling method, a total 
      of 190 questionnaires were distributed to nursing teachers, and 187 were 
      recovered. Cronbach's alpha coefficient was used to evaluate the reliability of the 
      scale. Validity was evaluated using the content validity index. RESULTS: After 
      the three rounds of expert consultation, the questionnaire contained five 
      dimensions and 44 elements. After expert inquiry, the total coefficient of 
      variation index (CVI) value of the scale was 0.992, and the CVI of each item was 
      0.95-1.00. The Spearman-Brown correlation coefficient was 0.984. By comparing the 
      results of the two surveys 2 months apart, the Pearson correlation coefficient 
      was tested, and the retest reliability was 0.852. The Cronbach's alpha of the scale 
      was 0.962, indicating excellent internal consistency. CONCLUSIONS: The scale of 
      clinical nursing teachers' competence has high reliability and validity. This 
      tool could be widely used to evaluate and improve nursing teaching.
