To identify pharmacy faculty members' perceptions of psychological contract breaches that can be used to guide improvements in faculty recruitment, retention, and development.
A list of psychological contract breaches was developed using a Delphi procedure involving a panel of experts assembled through purposive sampling. The Delphi consisted of 4 rounds, the first of which elicited examples of psychological contract breaches in an open-ended format. The ensuing 3 rounds consisting of a survey and anonymous feedback on aggregated group responses.
Usable responses were obtained from 11 of 12 faculty members who completed the Delphi procedure. The final list of psychological contract breaches included 27 items, after modifications based on participant feedback in subsequent rounds.
The psychological contract breach items generated in this study provide guidance for colleges and schools of pharmacy regarding important aspects of faculty recruitment, retention, and development.
确定药剂学教师对心理契约违背的认知，这些认知可用于指导教师招聘、留任和发展的改进。
采用德尔菲程序，通过有目的抽样组建专家小组，制定了一份心理契约违背清单。德尔菲法包括 4 轮，第 1 轮采用开放式格式征求心理契约违背的例子。随后的 3 轮包括调查和对匿名汇总组答复的反馈。
完成德尔菲程序的 12 名教师中有 11 名提供了可用的答复。根据后续几轮参与者的反馈，对心理契约违背清单进行了修改，最终确定了 27 项心理契约违背清单。
本研究产生的心理契约违背项目为药学院校提供了有关教师招聘、留任和发展的重要方面的指导。
