The lack of a measurement tool examining the quality of doctoral education in nursing in a national context is the reason for this study. Data were collected from 55 teaching staff and 225 doctorate students. Explanatory and confirmatory factor analyzes were used for test validity. Cronbach’s ? coefficient of reliability, independent-sample t test, and test-retest analysis were calculated to test Reliability. The factor loads ranged between 0.51-0.91.The construct validity was good (?2/df =3.02; RMSEA = 0.085; CFI = 0.87; NFI = 0.90; GFI = 0.79; TLI = 0.90; IFI =0.91; p < 0.001). The Cronbach alpha value of the scale was 0.94. The results of this study show that the Turkish version of the Quality of Nursing Doctoral Education instrument is a valid and reliable tool.en10.5961/higheredusci.1078501info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessArticle13132391167694
