ABSTRACT Purpose: To assess the psychometric properties of a newly developed instrument patient-nurse trust scale (PNTS) among sexual and gender minorities (SGM). Design: Secondary data analysis. Methods: Reliability and construct validity of the PNTS were assessed. Findings: The PNTS showed high internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha= 0.96). It also demonstrated a good fit to the data and confirmed construct validity. Conclusions: PNTS is a reliable and valid instrument to measure trust in the nurse-patient relationship with SGM youth. Clinical Evidence: PNTS is a valid and reliable tool that quantifies patient-nurse trust relationship and can predict patient satisfaction, health behaviors and health outcomes.
