Thus, the main objective of this study was to examine the construct validity of BI in adult inpatient units.</p></span><span id="sec0010" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0070">Methods</span><p id="par0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">A secondary analysis was conducted on a sample of 1342 patients admitted to adult inpatient units between June and December 2020. We used anonymised data extracted from the electronic health record from one of the hospitals participating in the Nursing Assessment Project (VALENF for its acronym in Spanish). The general objective of this project was to design and validate an instrument that integrates the assessment of functional capacity, the risk of falls, and the risk of pressure ulcers. This project was approved by the Ethics and Research Committee of the Centre (Ref: VALENF. 12/01/2021).<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0020"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a></p><p id="par0045" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The VALENF Project database includes a large number of variables related to nursing assessment. Specifically, this study included the following variables: grouped age (<85; 65–84; 35–64; 18–35), sex (male; female), inpatient unit, type of process (medical; surgical), type of admission (scheduled; emergency), coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) (positive; negative) and the overall score and the score of the BI items performed during the nursing assessment on admission.</p><p id="par0050" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The descriptive analysis of the sample was performed according to the nature of the variables. A bivariate analysis of the BI score was also performed using the Mann-Whitney <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">U</span> test (two groups) or Kruskal-Wallis (three groups). The construct validity of the BI was first studied using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), using the maximum likelihood estimation technique and respecting its original structure (CFA-1).<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a> Based on the results, two methods were explored to determine the factor structure of the BI with a better model-data fit. On one hand, a 2-factor solution was obtained by performing an Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) using the minimal residuals extraction procedure and Oblimin rotation<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0025"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a> (Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin = 0.954; Barlet's χ2 = 20376; df = 45; <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">P</span> < .001); then, a second CFA was run on this model (CFA-2). On the other hand, partial correlations were analysed through a Gaussian graphical model using the extended Bayesian information criterion as a fitting parameter.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0030"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a> Based on these results, a third CFA with a three-factor solution was performed (CFA-3).</p><p id="par0055" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The absolute goodness-of-fit<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> indicators used were chi-square (χ2, small scores indicate good fit), ratio of χ2 to degrees of freedom (χ2/df < 5 indicates an adequate fit), and Root Mean Square Error of Approximation (RMSEA ≤ 0.1 indicates an adequate fit). The incremental goodness-of-fit indicators were Comparative Fit Index (CFI ≥ 90 indicates good fit) and Tucker-Lewis Index (TLI ≥ 0.90 indicates good fit). The parsimony fit indicators used to compare the three CFAs were the Akaike Information Criteria (AIC) and Bayesian Information Criteria (BIC) (lower values indicate better fit). In addition, an individual item extraction was performed to explore possible improvements in goodness of fit and a post-hoc analysis of the models’ performance through the correlation matrix of the residuals, to detect items that could be removed or grouped into new dimensions.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0040"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span></a> The analysis was performed using JAMOVI 1.6.23 software.</p></span><span id="sec0015" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0075">Results</span><span id="sec0020" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0080">Description of the sample</span><p id="par0060" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The majority of the sample, 63.5% (n = 852), were aged > 65 years, 51.9% (n = 695) were male, and 17.7% (n = 237) were COVID-19 positive patients.

Furthermore, the RMSEA values indicated that there was not a good model-data fit; the AIC and BIC results improved in the other models. In addition, three items showed residual correlations, justifying a revision of the BI structure. In such cases, researchers often look for solutions with fewer items that maintain a good fit, but the validity of the measurement may be affected if items are reduced, leading to an attenuation paradox.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0040"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span></a> BI structures with fewer items have already been explored but to avoid this potential bias and maintain their clinical utility, we decided to use other procedures.</p><p id="par0085" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Thus, Lake et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0020"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> concluded that the dimensions of BI may vary depending on the type of patient. Specifically, these authors obtained a two-dimensional structure of the BI, identical to our CFA-2 (bodily functions and mobility) model, although there was no good model-data fit in our case.

According to Mueller et al.,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0005"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a> the unidimensional structure of the BI and the aggregate score limit its usefulness in clinical practice, masking particular aspects of functional ability that influence the intensity of care.</p><p id="par0095" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Further studies are needed to confirm this new structure of the BI and to use other methodological approaches, such as structural equation models or item-response theory.
