Abstract:
Background:The resulting 5 core competencies that should be common in health professions’
education aAAAAwzzzzere imbedded in the following vision statement from the summit. In our
(the authors) roles as clinical educators and health professional education researchers, we often
hear clinician colleagues describe interprofessional competencies as “soft skills” and see them as
the “poor cousin” to clinical skills.
Methods:The survey instrument contained four scales to evaluate faculty attitudes toward IPE
and teamwork adapted from the methods of Curran et al (2007) To define the structure clearer,
an exploratory factor analysis using varimax rotation was conducted. The level of significance was
p<.0001 for all tests.
Results:As shown in results mean score was “Attitudes towards health care team” was 3.85,
“Attitudes towards interprofessional education” was 4.02, “Attitudes towards interprofessional
learning in the academic setting”.was 3.8. The Kaiser–Meyer-Olkin index was 0.735, indicating
sampling adequacy, and the Bartlett Sphericity Chi Square index was 357.8 (p <0.0001).
Cronbach’s alpha of the 14 items was 0.793, revialing a high rate of internal consistency. The
modified ATHCTS questionnaire was categorized into the four factors “Quality of care”, “Team
efficiency”, “Patient centred care”, “Negative factors”.
Conclusions:Findings suggest that the positive attitude of students towards IPE indicates the
need for IPE training.
