Purpose of the Study:
- To develop and validate a DP questionnaire specifically for healthcare teams.
- To provide a reliable instrument for assessing coordination in health policy.
Main Methods:
- Literature review to identify initial questionnaire items.
- Content validation using a Delphi study with 10 experts.
- Two rounds of expert assessment focusing on clarity, appropriateness, and measurement scales.
Main Results:
- High expert consensus (≥90% agreement) achieved after two Delphi rounds.
- Validated questionnaire consists of four items, each representing an identified DP.
- Demonstrated high stability and concordance in expert judgments.
Conclusions:
- The validated DP questionnaire is a methodological innovation for health policy research.
- Enables new avenues for comparative studies and generalization of findings.
