This study examined the perceived importance of the 22 characteristics of effective clinical instructors as identified by Katz in 1982. Using a questionnaire survey instrument, a random sample of 354 nurse anesthesia program directors, Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist clinical instructors, first-year nurse anesthesia students, and second-year nurse anesthesia students from across the United States participated in this study. The mean scores of importance for each characteristic demonstrate that respondents perceived all 22 characteristics as being very important. When all 22 characteristic mean scores for each group were arranged in descending order by the researcher, no significant difference was found between respondent groups. Multiple regression analysis demonstrated that the demographic variables accounted for only an extremely small percentage of the variance. It appears that all four professional groups valued the 22 characteristic and perceived them as critically important to clinical instruction. The researcher suggests that this homogeneity among all four groups may be the result of students' previous exposure to clinical instructors. Findings in this study have implications for guiding nurse anesthesia clinical instructors in their quest for clinical teaching excellence through evaluation and faculty development programs.
本研究考察了1982年由卡茨确定的有效临床教师的22项特征的重要性认知。通过问卷调查工具，从美国各地随机抽取了354名护士麻醉项目主任、注册护士麻醉师临床教师、一年级护士麻醉专业学生和二年级护士麻醉专业学生参与本研究。每个特征的重要性平均得分表明，受访者认为所有22项特征都非常重要。当研究人员将每组所有22项特征的平均得分按降序排列时，各受访者群体之间未发现显著差异。多元回归分析表明，人口统计学变量仅占方差的极小比例。似乎所有四个专业群体都重视这22项特征，并认为它们对临床教学至关重要。研究人员认为，所有四个群体之间的这种同质性可能是学生之前接触临床教师的结果。本研究的结果对于指导护士麻醉临床教师通过评估和教师发展项目追求卓越临床教学具有启示意义。
