Abstract

The Interprofessional Attitudes Scale (IPAS) is a promising tool for assessing interprofessional education (IPE) attitudes, especially in community-oriented initiatives. To meet the need for validated IPE tools in Vietnam, we translated the IPAS into Vietnamese (Viet-IPAS) and evaluated its psychometric properties. The preparatory phases included forward and backward translation, expert consultations, and student feedback, resulting in strong content validity, face validity, linguistic comprehensibility, and test-retest reliability. During the 2020-2021 academic year, health students from the University of Medicine and Pharmacy at Ho Chi Minh City were invited for the main phase. A total of 282 students from medical, nursing, pharmacy, and rehabilitation science programs completed an online survey using the Viet-IPAS. Cronbach's alphas for the Teamwork, roles and responsibilities (TRR), Patient-centeredness, Interprofessional biases (IB), Diversity and ethics, and Community-centeredness subscales were .84, .79, .56, .86, and .81, respectively. Confirmatory factor analysis indicated an acceptable fit (normed χ2: 2.618, RMSEA: .076, CFI: .874, AGFI: .77). Factor loadings were above .70, except for IB3 and TRR8 items. Modified models by removing IB subscale and TRR8 item showed slightly improved fit. We recommend using the Viet-IPAS with modifications in Vietnamese health student populations and encourage further review and refinement of the instrument.

质疑承诺:对越南卫生系学生跨专业态度量表的验证。
跨专业态度量表(IPAS)是评估跨专业教育(IPE)态度的一个很有前途的工具,特别是在面向社区的倡议中。为了满足越南对有效的IPE工具的需求,我们将IPAS翻译成越南语(越南-IPAS)并评估其心理测量特性。准备阶段包括前后翻译、专家咨询、学生反馈等,形成了较强的内容效度、面孔效度、语言可理解性和重测信度。在2020-2021学年,胡志明市医药大学的卫生专业学生应邀参加了主要阶段。共有282名来自医学、护理、药学和康复科学专业的学生使用越南ipas完成了一项在线调查。团队合作、角色和责任(TRR)、以患者为中心、跨专业偏见(IB)、多样性和伦理、社区为中心的Cronbach’s alpha分别为0.84、0.79、0.56、0.86和0.81。验证性因素分析显示可接受的拟合(标准化χ2: 2.618, RMSEA: 0.076, CFI: 0.874, AGFI: 0.77)。除IB3和TRR8项外,其余因子负荷均在0.70以上。去除IB子量表和TRR8项后的模型拟合程度略有提高。我们建议在越南卫生专业学生群体中进行修改后使用越南-国际项目援助计划,并鼓励进一步审查和完善该工具。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Interprofessional Care disseminates research and new developments in the field of interprofessional education and practice. We welcome contributions containing an explicit interprofessional focus, and involving a range of settings, professions, and fields. Areas of practice covered include primary, community and hospital care, health education and public health, and beyond health and social care into fields such as criminal justice and primary/elementary education. Papers introducing additional interprofessional views, for example, from a community development or environmental design perspective, are welcome. The Journal is disseminated internationally and encourages submissions from around the world.
