The data were analyzed with SPSS 20.0.Results The median of the total score of NTS among nurses was 4.31 (the full marks are 5). The scores of four dimensions from the highest to the lowest were: team leader (4.75), shared mental models (4.50), trust and support (4.38), team-oriented (4.00). The influencing factors of nursing teamwork included departments, weekly working hours, overtime hours and most often shift nearly three months, whether planed to leave current operating post and departments human resource allocation with significant differences (P<0.05).Conclusions There is still room for improvement in nursing teamwork.

Objective To introduce and translate the English version of Team Development Measure (TDM) into Chinese one and evaluate the reliability and validity of the Chinese version for general practitioner teams to provide a basis for studying the development of the general practitioner teams.Methods According to the Guidelines for the Process of Cross-Cultural Adaptation of Self-report Measures, we completed the translation and culture debugging. Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 26 community health centers were selected which included 85 general practitioner teams for investigation and analyzing the reliability and validity of TDM. The data were statistically analyzed by SPSS 20.0 and AMOS 22.0.Results The correlation (r) between each item and total score of item analysis was 0.251-0.695 (all P<0.001). AllCR values of these items were greater than 3.0 except item 17 and item 23. By use the CFA method,KMO=0.912, and got 4 common factors finally, which could explain 54.3% of overall variance; and had a good fitness CFA confirmed. The Cronbach's α coefficients of the total scale and each dimensions were 0.925,and 0.680-0.916 respectively. The retest reliability was 0.787 (P<0.001).Conclusions The Chinese version of TDM has good reliability and validity and can be used as a tool for measuring the general practitioner team development.
