The simulation realism scale for healthcare professionals and students: A development, validity and reliability study
Introduction
Realism in simulations significantly influences educational outcomes, yet there is no standardized tool to assess participants' perceptions. Developing a tool to measure how realistic they are will enhance the design of simulations, make them easier to evaluate and improve their quality.
Aims
This methodological study aimed to develop and validate the Simulation Realism Scale (SRS) for use by healthcare professionals and students.
Methods
A 21-item scale was developed using Morgado et al.’s (2017) three-stage approach. Three hundred and seventy-two participants participated in standardized simulations according to the INACSL guidelines. Language and content validity were ensured. Construct validity was tested with CFA; reliability was tested with Cronbach's alpha (α), item-total correlations, and test-retest.
Results
The CFA confirmed a five-factor structure explaining 65% of variance. The Cronbach’s α value was 0.91.
Discussion
The SRS is a reliable, valid tool for measuring perceived realism in simulation-based healthcare education.
Conclusions
Further validation across different cultures is recommended.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Simulation in Nursing is an international, peer reviewed journal published online monthly. Clinical Simulation in Nursing is the official journal of the International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation & Learning (INACSL) and reflects its mission to advance the science of healthcare simulation.
We will review and accept articles from other health provider disciplines, if they are determined to be of interest to our readership. The journal accepts manuscripts meeting one or more of the following criteria:
Research articles and literature reviews (e.g. systematic, scoping, umbrella, integrative, etc.) about simulation
Innovative teaching/learning strategies using simulation
Articles updating guidelines, regulations, and legislative policies that impact simulation
Leadership for simulation
Simulation operations
Clinical and academic uses of simulation.
