Chinese Nurses' Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice Survey on Geriatric Intrinsic Capacity

606 clinical nurses from a tertiary hospital in Xinjiang, China, participated in a cross-sectional online survey from November 2024 to February 2025. The dataset contains survey results evaluating nurses' knowledge, attitude, and practice regarding intrinsic capacity in the aging population, authored by Yi Ren and published on figshare in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyzing predictors of nursing knowledge scores based on nursing hierarchy, training history, and hospital support.
• Modeling relationships between knowledge, attitude, and practice scores using structural equation modeling path coefficients.
• Evaluating the impact of perceived knowledge adequacy on practice scores as indicated by LASSO regression results.
• Assessing survey instrument reliability based on reported Cronbach's α values for knowledge, attitude, and practice sections.

Strengths

• 606 valid questionnaire responses provide a substantive sample size.
• High reliability metrics: Cronbach's α of 0.979 for knowledge, 0.916 for attitude, and 0.936 for practice.
• Specific statistical results reported, including mean scores, LASSO regression λ values, and bootstrap mediation effect test results.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data is limited to a single tertiary hospital in Xinjiang, China, which may affect generalizability.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
