Purpose: Develop a Children's Trust in General Nurses Scale (CTGNS).
Design And Methods: In a cross-sectional investigation, 128 U.K. children (68 females and 60 males; mean age = 10 years and 4 months) completed the CTGNS and reported their trust in, and fear of, nurses. A total of 46 parents reported those dispositions and the frequency of their children visiting medical centres.
Results: The CTGNS showed acceptable internal consistency and factor structure. It was correlated with reported children's trust in nurses and visiting medical centres.
Practice Implications: The CTGNS will permit the investigation of children's trust in nurses and interventions to promote it.
