To develop a consensus definition for "advocacy for the profession of pharmacy" and core competencies for doctor of pharmacy (PharmD) graduates to be effective advocates for the profession.
A 3-round modified Delphi process was conducted using a panel of 9 experts. Participants revised a definition for "advocacy for the profession" and ultimately rated their agreement using a 5-point Likert scale. Competency statements were developed and subsequently rated for importance for being an advocate and importance to address in PharmD curricula.
A consensus-derived definition was developed. Two competency statements achieved consensus for both measures of importance. Four competency statements achieved consensus for only 1 measure and another 4 did not reach consensus for either measure.
A consensus-derived definition was developed describing advocacy for the profession of pharmacy and began laying the groundwork for the knowledge and skills necessary to be an effective advocate for the profession of pharmacy.
为“倡导药学专业”制定共识定义，并为药学博士（PharmD）毕业生制定核心能力，以成为该专业的有效倡导者。
采用 9 名专家组成的小组进行了 3 轮修改后的 Delphi 流程。参与者修订了“倡导药学专业”的定义，并最终使用 5 分制李克特量表对其达成共识的程度进行评分。制定了能力陈述，并随后对其作为倡导者的重要性和在 PharmD 课程中需要解决的重要性进行了评分。
制定了一个共识定义。有两个能力陈述在两个重要性衡量标准上都达成了共识。另外 4 个能力陈述仅在 1 个衡量标准上达成共识，还有 4 个能力陈述在两个衡量标准上都没有达成共识。
制定了一个共识定义，描述了倡导药学专业，并为成为药学专业的有效倡导者所需的知识和技能奠定了基础。
