This study aimed to evaluate pharmacy students' perceptions regarding the correlations among the quality of faculty members, institutional resources, an integrated-based curriculum of pharmaceutical dosage forms (ICPDF), and learning outcome attainment. The current study participants have attended courses (semesters 2 to 6) through the ICPDF in the Department of Pharmaceutics and Pharmaceutical Technology, Faculty of Pharmacy, , Indonesia. We distributed survey instruments to 212 pharmacy undergraduate students after one year of the curriculum implementation. We asked the students to fill in the instrument in which the indicators consist of a 7-point Likert scale. The data were analyzed using SmartPLS, which included measurement and structural models through PLS-SEM. The findings informed that the quality of faculty members and institutional resources significantly predict ICPDF. Similarly, ICPDF plays a significant role in affecting learning outcome attainment. The quality of faculty members and institutional resources were not related to learning outcome attainment. Significances of differences were informed among students' years in university regarding learning outcome attainment and ICPDF. However, insignificant differences emerged based on gender. The findings demonstrate the benefits of using the PLS-SEM approach to create a valid and reliable model, assessing the correlations between independent variables with the ICPDF and learning outcome attainment as two dependent variables.
本研究旨在评估药学专业学生对教师质量、机构资源、药物剂型综合基础课程（ICPDF）与学习成果之间相关性的看法。本研究的参与者均来自印度尼西亚药学院药剂学与制药技术系，通过 ICPDF 课程完成了 2 至 6 个学期的学习。在课程实施一年后，我们向 212 名药学本科生发放了调查问卷。学生们需根据 7 点李克特量表填写问卷，调查结果通过偏最小二乘法结构方程模型（PLS-SEM）进行分析，包括测量模型和结构模型。研究结果表明，教师质量和机构资源对 ICPDF 有显著的预测作用。同样地，ICPDF 对学习成果的获得也有显著影响。教师质量和机构资源与学习成果的获得没有关系。学生在校年限对学习成果的获得和 ICPDF 有显著影响，但性别没有显著差异。研究结果表明，使用 PLS-SEM 方法建立有效可靠的模型，评估 ICPDF 与学习成果之间的相关性是有益的，其中 ICPDF 和学习成果的获得是两个因变量。
