The importance of academic advising has been established in part by its designation as an element in the American Association of Colleges of Nursing's Standards for Accreditation. In addition, academic advising plays an essential role in students' development, academic success, satisfaction, recruitment, and retention; therefore, access to valid and reliable evaluation tools is of considerable importance. The purpose of this study was to develop and pilot test the Faculty Advisor Evaluation Questionnaire (FAEQ), which is an instrument developed from qualitative nursing research. The psychometric properties were explored using face and content validity, internal consistency reliability, and principle components factor analysis. The four-factor solution of the resulting 30-item questionnaire accounted for 81% of the variability. Cronbach's alpha values of the four factors ranged from 0.885 to 0.974. The FAEQ should elicit valid and reliable results, although further testing is needed to validate the findings in a larger and more diverse sample.
学术咨询的重要性已经得到了确立,部分原因是它被指定为美国护理学院协会认证标准的一个要素。此外,学术咨询在学生的发展、学术成功、满意度、招生和留任方面起着至关重要的作用;因此,获得有效和可靠的评估工具是非常重要的。本研究的目的是开发和试点测试教师顾问评估问卷(FAEQ),这是一种从定性护理研究中开发出来的工具。使用表面和内容效度、内部一致性可靠性以及主成分因子分析来探索心理测量特性。由此产生的 30 个项目的问卷的四个因素解决方案占变异性的 81%。四个因素的克朗巴赫 α 值范围为 0.885 至 0.974。FAEQ 应该得出有效和可靠的结果,尽管需要进一步的测试来在更大和更多样化的样本中验证这些发现。
