Internships can constitute up to one third of the curriculum and during these internships, the foundation for developing specific health professional competencies is formed. The clinical learning environment (CLE) is a critical determinant of the overall quality of internships in health profession education, shaping students' professional competencies and experiences.
This systematic review aims to identify and categorize assessment tools available for evaluating the quality of the CLE in health professions education.
This in the International Database of Education Systematic Reviews preregistered systematic review [IDESR000098] will consider peer-reviewed articles in English where instruments are developed and validated to illustrate the quality of the CLE in higher education health professions students. The search strategy will encompass multiple electronic databases, including MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, ERIC, Education Research Complete, Education Database, and CINAHL. Studies will be independently assessed for risk of bias using the COSMIN Risk of Bias checklist for systematic reviews of PROMs. We will summarize and tabulate the basic characteristics of each identified tool and via a comprehensive table we will summarize the reported psychometric properties.
This systematic review protocol will outline a comprehensive approach to identifying and evaluating assessment tools for measuring the quality of the CLE in health profession students. It is assumed that the findings will offer several notable advantages and impacts, which could significantly influence the quality of clinical education for health profession students.
实习可占课程的三分之一,在这些实习期间,培养特定卫生专业能力的基础得以形成。临床学习环境(CLE)是卫生专业教育实习整体质量的关键决定因素,塑造着学生的专业能力和经历。
本系统评价旨在识别和分类可用于评估卫生专业教育中临床学习环境质量的评估工具。
在国际教育系统评价数据库预先注册的系统评价[IDESR000098]将纳入以英文发表的同行评审文章,这些文章中开发并验证了相关工具以说明高等教育卫生专业学生的临床学习环境质量。检索策略将涵盖多个电子数据库,包括MEDLINE、EMBASE、Cochrane图书馆、ERIC、教育研究完整版、教育数据库和CINAHL。将使用用于患者报告结局测量工具(PROMs)系统评价的COSMIN偏倚风险清单对研究进行独立的偏倚风险评估。我们将总结并列表展示每个已识别工具的基本特征,并通过一个综合表格总结报告的心理测量特性。
本系统评价方案将概述一种全面的方法,用于识别和评估测量卫生专业学生临床学习环境质量的评估工具。预计研究结果将带来若干显著优势和影响,这可能会显著影响卫生专业学生的临床教育质量。
