SNSI-C: the Chinese version of the Student Nurse Stress Index. SN1, SN2, SN3, and SN4 are factor 1, factor 2, factor 3, and factor 4 of SNSI, respectively. SINS-C: the Chinese version of the Stressors in Student Nursing Scale. SI1, SI2, SI3, and SI4 are factor 1, factor 2, factor 3, and factor 4 of SINS-C, respectively. CPSS: the Chinese Perceived Stress Scale. C1 and C2 are factor 1 and factor 2 of CPSS, respectively. ^※.
