A validated matrix of indicators can assess child hearing health services. Experts confirmed the tool
Area of Science:
- Pediatrics
- Audiology
- Healthcare Management
Background:
- Child hearing health services require robust evaluation tools.
- Existing assessment methods may lack comprehensive structure and process indicators.
Purpose of the Study:
- To validate a matrix of indicators for assessing child hearing health services.
- To ensure the reliability and applicability of the assessment tool.
Main Methods:
- Content and semantic validation by Nursing and Speech therapy specialists.
- Analysis of 20 indicators using Item-level Content Validity Index (I-CVI) and Scale-level CVI (S-CVI) with thresholds of 0.80.
Main Results:
- Twenty-two specialists (59% nurses, 41% speech therapists) participated.
- Mean I-CVI and S-CVI for suitable indicators were 0.96.
- I-CVI and S-CVI for suggested scores were 0.80 and 0.82, respectively.
Conclusions:
- The developed matrix of indicators is valid for evaluating child hearing health services.
- The tool provides a reliable method for assessing service structure and process.
