Abstract

Introduction: The search for initiatives that stimulate interprofessionalism should incorporate activities developed by educational institutions. The Bahia School of Medicine and Public Health (EBMSP) runs a project, approved by the Government Program of Education for Work in Health - PET-Saude, which promotes interprofessional practice. Objective: Evaluate the psychometric properties of the IEPS when applied to Brazilian students. Method: We conducted Exploratory Factorial Analyses and took into account the eigenvalues and the theoretical model in order to estimate the number of factors. The Cronbach alpha coefficient was also calculated. Results: A three-dimensional factorial solution was tested. These three factors jointly explain 66.5% of variance in interprofessionalism. Three items were excluded, due to empirical weaknesses. The Cronbach alphas obtained for each dimension were 0.84, 0.70 and 0.16. Conclusion: The study attained its objective, gathering initial evidence regarding the validity of this measure in a Brazilian context.

应用于健康科学本科学生的跨专业评估量表的批判性分析

引言:寻求促进跨专业精神的倡议应纳入教育机构开展的活动。巴伊亚州医学和公共卫生学院(EBMSP)开展了一个项目，该项目得到了政府卫生工作教育方案——PET-Saude的批准，旨在促进跨专业实践。目的:评价IEPS在巴西学生中的心理测量特性。方法:采用探索性因子分析方法，结合特征值和理论模型估算因子数量。同时计算Cronbach α系数。结果:测试了三维析因溶液。这三个因素共同解释了66.5%的跨专业差异。由于实证不足，我们排除了三个项目。各维度的Cronbach alpha分别为0.84、0.70和0.16。结论:该研究达到了其目的，收集了有关该措施在巴西背景下有效性的初步证据。
