In the study, it was aimed to determine the validity and reliability of the Social Media Questionnaire for Nursing Training (SMQNT), which can be used to determine the effect of social media in nursing education. Methods: The data of this methodological study were obtained from 262 nursing students. Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used to determine the scale’s factor structure, while Cronbach’s alpha, test–retest method, and split-half reliability method were used for reliability. Results: In line with the results of the CFA, it was determined that the scale had 13 items and a three-factor structure as “attitudes,” “use,” and “contrast information.” Similar to the original scale, a three-factor establishment was approved. SMQNT Cronbach’s alpha was found to be.87, while Cronbach’s alpha was found to be.658 for the “F1” factor,.760 for the “F2” factor, and.688 for the “F3” factor. Conclusions: As a result of this study, the Turkish form of SMQNT was a valid and reliable measurement instrument. © 2025 Springer Publishing Company.Springer Publishing Company2025Articlehttps://rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/r/ebyu/10566https://doi.org/10.1891/jnm-2024-00031061-3749enJournal of Nursing Measurementinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://ebyu-rdlopen.rawdatalibrary.net/tr/items/ebyu/10566
