To assess the internal validity and reliability of a multisource feedback (MSF) program by China Medical Board for resident physicians in China.
Multisource feedback was used to assess professionalism, interpersonal and communication skills. 258 resident physicians were assessed by attending doctors, self-evaluation, resident peers, nurses, office staffs, and patients who completed a sealed questionnaire at 19 hospitals in China. Cronbach's alpha coefficient was used to assess reliability. Validity was assessed by exploratory factor analyses and by profile ratings.
4128 questionnaires were collected from this study. All responses had high internal consistency and reliability (Cronbach's α > 0.90), which suggests that both questions and form data were internally consistent. The exploratory factor analysis with varimax rotation for the evaluators' questionnaires was able to account for 70 to 74% of the total variance.
The current MSF assessment tools are internally valid and reliable for assessing resident physician professionalism and interpersonal and communication skills in China.
评估中国医学委员会为中国住院医师开发的多源反馈(MSF)项目的内部有效性和可靠性。
多源反馈用于评估专业精神、人际交往和沟通技巧。258 名住院医师由主治医生、自我评估、住院医师同伴、护士、办公室工作人员和患者进行评估,他们在中国 19 家医院完成了密封的问卷。Cronbach's α 系数用于评估可靠性。有效性通过探索性因素分析和个人资料评分进行评估。
本研究共收集了 4128 份问卷。所有的反馈都具有较高的内部一致性和可靠性(Cronbach's α>0.90),这表明问题和表格数据是内部一致的。对评估者问卷进行的方差极大旋转的探索性因素分析能够解释 70%至 74%的总方差。
目前的 MSF 评估工具在中国具有内部有效性和可靠性,可用于评估住院医师的专业精神以及人际交往和沟通技巧。
