To validate the Jefferson Scale of Empathy-Health Profession Students version (JSE-HPS) in pharmacy students.
The JSE-HPS (20 items), adapted from the original Jefferson Scale of Empathy for use among students in the healthcare professions, was completed by 187 first-year pharmacy students at Midwestern University Chicago College of Pharmacy.
Two factors, "perspective-taking" and "compassionate care," emerged from factor analysis in this study, accounting for 31% and 8% of the variance, respectively. These factors are similar to the prominent ones reported in previous research involving physicians and medical students, supporting the construct validity of this instrument for pharmacy students. In the current study, mean JSE-HPS score was comparable to those reported for medical students, and consistent with previous findings with medical students and physicians. Women scored significantly higher than men.
Findings support the construct validity and reliability of the JSE-HPS for measuring empathy in pharmacy students.
验证杰斐逊同理心量表-健康职业学生版(JSE-HPS)在药学专业学生中的适用性。
本研究采用杰斐逊同理心量表(JSE),对中西部大学芝加哥药学院的 187 名药学专业一年级学生进行了改编,共 20 个项目。
本研究中的因子分析得出了两个因子,分别为“换位思考”和“关怀照顾”,分别占方差的 31%和 8%。这些因子与先前涉及医生和医学生的研究中报告的突出因子相似,支持该工具对药学专业学生的结构有效性。在本研究中,JSE-HPS 的平均得分与医学生报告的得分相当,与之前对医学生和医生的研究结果一致。女性得分明显高于男性。
研究结果支持 JSE-HPS 在测量药学专业学生同理心方面的结构有效性和可靠性。
