Abstract:
Objective To investigate the feasibility of 360-degree evaluation in teaching ability assessment of community general practice trainers.Methods The 360-degree evaluation questionnaire was used to assess the teaching ability of 39 general practice trainers in 3 community teaching bases in Xuhui District of Shanghai during January to March 2014.Five dimensions were included in the questionnaire:ability of primary care, ability of common disease management, clinical skills and appropriate community technology, teaching ability and personal overall ability.Each trainer was evaluated by 2 managers, 2 colleagues, 2 nurses, and 2 trainees, beside trainer him(her)self.Results Total 343 questionnaires were rechieved with a response rate of 97.7%.The average overall scores of assessments from trainers themselves, managers, colleagues, nurses, and trainees were 6.66 ±0.85, 6.91 ±1.28, 8.06 ±0.58, 8.36 ±1.68, and 8.12 ±0.81, respectively.The scores from nurses were the highest in all dimensions of the questionnair.The overall scores and scores of each dimention assessed by colleagues, nurses and trainees were significantly higher than those from trainers themselves ( P <0.05 for all ) , while the scores from managers were higher than those from trainers themselves only in teaching ability dimension ( t=4.655,P<0.001).There was no correlation of overall scores assessed by managers, colleagues, nurses and trainees with those assessed by trainers themselves ( P>0.05 for all).The overall cronbach′s alpha was greater than 0.9 in every aspect of assessors.The cronbach′s alpha of all dimension was greater than 0.8, except that of primary care ability assessed by trainers themself ( 0.694 ).Conclusion The 360-degree evaluation combines the assessments of community service ability, clinical ability, comprehensive quality and teaching ability, so it is practicable for teaching ability assessment of general practice trainers in community.
