| Popis: | Background: Evaluation of educational services through appropriate tools is very important. The present study was conducted to translate the Evaluation and Feedback for Effective Clinical Education (EFFECT) questionnaire from English into Persian and assess the validity and reliability of the translated version.Method: Initially, the EFFECT questionnaire was translated from English into Persian based on the International Quality of life Assessment (IQOLA) for cultural adaptation. To quantitatively evaluate the content validity of the questionnaire, the content validity ratio (CVR) and the content validity index (CVI) were used. To assess internal consistency, ninety-four occupational therapy students completed the translated EFFECT questionnaire. To measure test-retest reliability, 35 occupational therapy students filled out the translated questionnaire again after two weeks interval.Results: The EFFECT scores of the items ranged from 3.95 to 4.77, all of which were at an acceptable level. The CVR scores of 48 items (necessity) were higher than 0.59. Seven items received CVR scores of less than 0.59. Fifty-one items obtained CVI scores of higher than 0.79 (clarity). Four items did not achieve a minimum acceptable score of 0.79. The test-retest reliability range of 0.75 to 0.91. The Cronbach’s alpha varied from 0.84 to 0.94, revealing a very desirable internal consistency in all seven domains. The total value of Cronbach’s alpha was 0.98.Conclusion: The Persian version of the EFFECT questionnaire has good validity and reliability in occupational therapy education and can be employed as an appropriate tool to assess the quality of clinical education in occupational therapy. |
