    Abstract:
    In this study, we examined the psychometric properties of the Chinese version of the Stress-Related Growth Scale-Short Form (SRGS-SF) for undergraduate nursing students. Using a cross-sectional design, a convenience sample of 253 undergraduate nursing students was included in this study. Half of the sample (n = 126) was randomly selected to explore the factorial structure of the SRGS-SF via exploratory factor analysis. The rest of the sample (n = 127) was selected to confirm the structure via confirmatory factor analysis. The results showed that the Chinese version of the SRGS-SF consisted of two factors: interpersonal and intrapersonal growth. The scale also had the power to discriminate between undergraduate nursing students with high and low levels of stress-related growth (SRG). The internal consistency and stability of the scale were also adequate. The Chinese version of the SRGS-SF is a valid and reliable measurement for assessing SRG among undergraduate nursing students. One suitable application would be the evaluation of the process underpinning SRG and the effectiveness of interventions.
