To develop a comprehensive instrument specific to student pharmacist-patient communication skills, and to determine face, content, construct, concurrent, and predictive validity and reliability of the instrument. A multi-step approach was used to create and validate an instrument, including the use of external experts for face and content validity, students for construct validity, comparisons to other rubrics for concurrent validity, comparisons to other coursework for predictive validity, and extensive reliability and inter-rater reliability testing with trained faculty assessors. Patient-centered Communication Tools (PaCT) achieved face and content validity and performed well with multiple correlation tests with significant findings for reliability testing and when compared to an alternate rubric. PaCT is a useful instrument for assessing student pharmacist communication skills with patients.
为了开发一种专门针对学生药剂师与患者沟通技巧的全面工具，并确定该工具的表面、内容、结构、同时和预测效度和可靠性。使用了一种多步骤的方法来创建和验证工具，包括使用外部专家进行表面和内容有效性、学生进行结构有效性、与其他评分标准进行同时有效性比较、与其他课程进行预测有效性比较，以及与经过培训的教师评估员进行广泛的可靠性和内部评分员可靠性测试。以患者为中心的沟通工具 (PaCT) 具有表面和内容有效性，并且在与可靠性测试相关的多个相关测试中表现良好，并且与替代评分标准相比也表现良好。PaCT 是评估学生药剂师与患者沟通技巧的有用工具。
