title: A cross-cultural study of the reliability and factorial dimensions of the Nurses' Observation Scale for Inpatient Evaluation (NOSIE).
abstract: Investigated the reliability and factor structure of the Nurses' Observation Scale for Inpatient Evaluation (NOSIE) in a group of short-stay psychiatric patients (N = 247) of a Dutch psychiatric university clinic. It was found that the NOSIE has good interrater reliability. With the exception of the Social Competence and Personal Neatness subscales five of the original seven scales could be replicated when compared with American and British studies.
