| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 醫學教育暨生醫倫理研究所 === 104 === Background:
Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) aims to test the medical students in the domains different from the traditional exams. Mini-Clinical Examination (Mini-CEX) is one popular and convenient tool to assess the medical clinical skills. Standardized patients (SPs) are one characteristic of the OSCE but the current format is complicated to evaluate their performance.
Objective:
We wanted to develop simple and feasible tools to evaluate the performance of SPs and standardized patient trainer (SPT) for the purposes of training and assessment inspired by the convenience of mini-CEX.
Methods:
We developed and nominated the items of the scales by the focus group method and tested the reliability by Cronbach α and the validation by the factor analysis. All statistics were analyzed by SPSS 12.0 and defined the significance by P<0.05.
Result:
The Cronbach α of the scales to assess SPs and SPTs were 0.982 and 0.919. Both scales showed significant by Pearson correlation (P<0.01). The factor analysis showed good validity of the scale to check SPs by principle component method.
Conclusion:
We developed and demonstrated convenient and feasible tools to assess the SPs and SPTs with good reliability and validity to improve the training and education.
