Interprofessional education is expanding and emerging as a focus of health profession education. The development of instruments to identify competency of students is needed to improve interprofessional collaboration in patient care. Our purpose was to investigate the individual Jefferson Teamwork Observation Guide (JTOG) to determine its psychometric properties. Health profession student data (814 surveys) were analyzed using Rasch Modeling to determine the item and person statistics, unidimensionality, scaling performance, and local independence. The psychometric properties of the instrument were strong, but the current model produced a significant ceiling effect. Adaptations to the instrument were recommended to improve the instruments ability to identify competency and provide individual feedback on performance using a Rasch model. The adapted JTOG has strong psychometric properties to help facilitate reflection and to promote collaborative practice competency.
跨专业教育正在不断发展，并成为医疗专业教育的重点。为了提高患者护理的跨专业协作，需要开发识别学生能力的工具。我们的目的是研究个别杰斐逊团队观察指南（JTOG），以确定其心理测量学特性。使用 Rasch 建模分析了卫生专业学生的数据（814 份调查），以确定项目和人员统计数据、单维性、标度性能和局部独立性。该工具的心理测量特性很强，但当前模型产生了显著的上限效应。建议对该工具进行修改，以提高其识别能力，并使用 Rasch 模型提供关于绩效的个人反馈。经过改编的 JTOG 具有很强的心理测量特性，有助于促进反思和促进协作实践能力。
