「研修デザイン評価スケール—院内教育用—」の開発

Development of A Scale for Evaluating The Design of Nursing In-Service Education Courses

要旨

　目的：院内教育として提供される研修のデザインの質を評価する測定用具を開発する．

　方法：質的帰納的に解明した研修の評価基準に基づき，質問項目を作成し尺度化した．内容の妥当性は専門家会議とパイロット・スタディにより確保した．看護職者に対する第1回調査の結果，得点分布の偏りを認めた．選択肢を修正したスケールを用いて第2回調査を実施し，尺度の信頼性と妥当性を検討した．

　結果：第2回調査の回答385を分析した結果，クロンバックα信頼性係数は，内的整合性による信頼性の確保を示した．総得点と研修への満足度の有意な相関を認め，6回以上継続されている研修の参加者の得点は，2回以下の研修の参加者より有意に高かった．また，主成分分析の結果，スケールの1次元性を確認した．以上は，スケールの妥当性を示した．

　結論：スケールは，信頼性と一定程度の妥当性を確保しており，研修企画担当者による研修デザインの質評価に活用可能である．

　Aim: To develop and validate an instrument to evaluate the course design of in-service education for nurses.

　Methods: The questionnaire items were generated based on the criteria used by nurses to evaluate in-service education courses as revealed by qualitative and inductive research. Content validity was established by a panel of experts and via a pilot study. The results of the first survey—which was administered to nurses who attended 22 in-service education courses at 16 hospitals—showed that the score distribution was biased. Thus, the response choice patterns were modified, and the second survey was conducted with 444 nurses who attended 22 in-service education courses at 11 hospitals.

　Results: The analysis of data from 385 participants showed that the Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the scale was .955, signifying that the scale has internal consistency. The scale scores were significantly correlated with the nurses' satisfaction with the courses. The scores of the nurses who attended courses that had been conducted six or more times at their hospitals were significantly higher than those for nurses who attended courses that had been conducted two times or less. The one-dimensionality of the scale was confirmed via principal component analysis. These results indicate that the scale has validity.

　Conclusion: The scale that was developed has both reliability and validity, and can be utilized for evaluating the quality of course designs by nurses in charge of planning courses.
