To measure safety performance, situational judgement test, which is a method composed of job-related situations, can be used. This study aimed to develop and test its psychometric properties by measuring the safety performance of healthcare professionals in German hospitals.
An explorative cross-sectional study.
A team of researchers, nurses and physicians developed seven items, which focus on different safety areas. Descriptive statistics were calculated for each item. Cronbach's alpha was calculated as an indication of internal consistency. Spearman's correlation between the items was evaluated as analysis of construct validity. A cross-sectional survey with healthcare professionals in three German hospitals was conducted to test the developed instrument.
A total of 168 healthcare professionals participated (response rate: 39.1%). 70.2% were women, and 38.7%, 33.9%, 15.5% and 11.3% were registered nurses, nurses in training, physicians and other healthcare professionals respectively. The situational judgement test demonstrated an acceptable psychometric performance.
为了衡量安全性绩效,可以使用情景判断测试,这是一种由与工作相关的情况组成的方法。本研究旨在通过测量德国医院医疗保健专业人员的安全性绩效来开发和测试其心理测量学特性。
探索性横断面研究。
一组研究人员、护士和医生开发了 7 个项目,这些项目侧重于不同的安全领域。计算了每个项目的描述性统计数据。克朗巴赫的 alpha 被计算为内部一致性的指标。评估项目之间的斯皮尔曼相关性作为结构有效性的分析。在德国的 3 家医院进行了一项针对医疗保健专业人员的横断面调查,以测试所开发的工具。
共有 168 名医疗保健专业人员参与(回应率:39.1%)。70.2%为女性,注册护士、实习护士、医生和其他医疗保健专业人员分别占 38.7%、33.9%、15.5%和 11.3%。情景判断测试表现出可接受的心理测量性能。
