摘要

目的：评估老年药学选修课对药学专业学生有关老年人的知识、态度和同情心的影响：评估老年药学选修课对药学专业学生有关老年人的知识、态度和同情心的影响：方法：邀请连续三个学年参加为期 15 周的老年药学选修课的学生完成课前和课后调查。调查内容包括修订版 Palmore 老龄化事实测验 (FOAQ)、加州大学洛杉矶分校老年医学态度量表 (UCLA GAS)、Kiersma-Chen 同情量表 (KCES) 和人口统计学问题。对调查前后的数据进行了比较，并通过探索性分析评估了人口统计因素对学生知识、态度和移情的影响：结果：66 名学生参与了研究。修订版 Palmore FOAQ 和 UCLA GAS 的得分在调查后比调查前有显著提高，综合得分分别为 35.48 ± 5.3（71 ± 10.7%）对 31.95 ± 4.5（63.9 ± 9%），p < 0.001（配对样本 t 检验）和 55.6 ± 7.6 对 54.5 ± 6.7，p = 0.026（Wilcoxon 签署秩）。与调查前相比，学生在调查后的 KCES 分数有所提高，但这一提高在统计上并不显著（87.5 ± 11.1 对 85.5 ± 8.5，p = 0.074，Wilcoxon 符号秩）。学生自我报告的与老年人打交道的经验、种族和课程年份对学生的成绩有影响：结论：老年医学选修课对学生对老年人的了解和态度有积极影响。未来的研究应包括在不同的学生群体中对老年医学评估量表进行有效性和可靠性测试，以确保有效评估学生对这一患者群体的知识、态度和同理心。

Impact of a Geriatric Pharmacy Elective on Student Knowledge, Attitudes, and Empathy Regarding Older Adults

Objective

To evaluate the impact of a Geriatric Pharmacy elective on pharmacy students’ knowledge, attitudes, and empathy regarding older adults.

Methods

Enrolled students in a 15-week Geriatric Pharmacy elective during 3 consecutive academic years were invited to complete a precourse and postcourse survey. The survey consisted of the revised Palmore facts on aging quiz, the University of California at Los Angeles geriatric attitudes scale, the Kiersma-Chen empathy scale, and demographic questions. The presurvey and postsurvey data were compared and the impact of demographic factors on student knowledge, attitudes, and empathy was assessed in an exploratory analysis.

Results

Sixty-six students participated in the study. Scores on the revised Palmore facts on aging quiz and the University of California at Los Angeles geriatric attitudes scale increased significantly postsurvey compared with presurvey. Student scores on the Kiersma-Chen empathy scale increased on the postsurvey compared with the presurvey, but this increase was not statistically significant. Student self-reported experience with older adults, race, and the course year impacted student performance.

Conclusion

A geriatric elective positively impacted the students’ knowledge and attitudes toward older adults. Future research should include validity and reliability testing of geriatric assessment scales in a diverse student population to ensure effective assessment of student knowledge, attitudes, and empathy in this patient population.
