Sumario:The original version of the Nurse Managers’ Empowering Behavioral Scale for Staff Nurses (NMEB-SN) was both unique and comprehensive. However, it was considered lengthy. Hence, the intention of this particular study was to develop a shortened version of the NMEB-SN comprising 15 items across five subscales. Responses from 1268 staff nurses working at 10 Japanese hospitals were included in the analysis to confirm the validity and reliability of the scale. The results ensured internal consistency, construct and criterion-related validity, and test–retest reliability. The NMEB-SN short version is applicable in the context of practical and efficient nursing management to attract more nurses to the workplace.
