Relative effectiveness of the 13 Washington State associate degree (AD) programs was rated by 102 directors of nursing, AD nursing educators, and state board members. When the programs were ranked according to these ratings and the average of the programs' state board examinations, only a small positive relationship was obtained. State board examinations, therefore, should not be used by state and federal agencies as a composite measure of program effectivensss. Instead, the examinations should remain an assessment of th eminimum competency of individuals.
102名护理主任、护理学副学士学位教育工作者以及州委员会成员对华盛顿州13个护理学副学士学位(AD)项目的相对有效性进行了评级。当根据这些评级以及各项目州委员会考试的平均分对项目进行排名时,仅得到了微弱的正相关关系。因此,州和联邦机构不应将州委员会考试用作衡量项目有效性的综合指标。相反,这些考试应继续作为对个人最低能力的评估。
