Early intervention in a cardiorespiratory arrest by a witness significantly increases survival. That is why early training in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) may be essential. Therefore, the aim of this study is the development and validation of an instrument to assess CPR knowledge and skills for schoolchildren from 5 to 8 years old.
We used a Spanish sample with 164 children aged between 5 and 8 years old. These children received a workshop called the "CPR from my school" program and their knowledge of CPR was assessed pre- and post-Workshop. We examined the scale through psychometric analyses within the framework of Classical Test Theory.
The Nonide Scale provided evidence of content validity, revealed an essentially unidimensional internal structure, as well as excellent reliability (Ω = .87). Furthermore, a significant improvement was observed in scores, before and after the CPR Workshop.
The Nonide Scale, designed to measure CPR knowledge and acquired skills in children from 5 to 8 years old, shows adequate psychometric properties, hence it can be used as professional and research contexts require.
目击者对心肺骤停的早期干预可显著提高存活率。这就是为什么早期进行心肺复苏(CPR)培训可能至关重要的原因。因此,本研究的目的是开发和验证一种用于评估 5 至 8 岁学童 CPR 知识和技能的工具。
我们使用了来自西班牙的 164 名 5 至 8 岁的儿童样本。这些儿童接受了名为“我的学校 CPR”的课程,并在课程前后评估了他们的 CPR 知识。我们通过经典测试理论框架内的心理测量分析来检验该量表。
Nonide 量表提供了内容效度的证据,显示出基本的单维内部结构,以及极好的可靠性(Ω =.87)。此外,在 CPR 课程前后,得分显著提高。
该量表旨在测量 5 至 8 岁儿童的 CPR 知识和获得的技能,具有适当的心理计量学特性,因此可以根据专业和研究需要使用。
