Data validation is an essential part of a comprehensive assessment. Validation is confirming or verifying and opening the door to gathering more assessment data as it clarifies vague or unclear data. The process of checking and verifying the collected information is called data validation. The primary purpose of data validation is to ensure data is as free from error, bias, and misinterpretation as possible.
Nursing assessment guides are generally based on holistic models rather than medical...

The person's health status fluctuates continually, varying from being in good health to becoming ill and returning to being healthy. To understand the concept of illness prevention, there are two models. First, the health-illness continuum model is a graphic representation of an individual's wellness. It states that a person is considered healthy in the absence of physical disease and the presence of good emotional health.
The agent-host-environment model states that disease results...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Academic Discipline Development
  • Public Health Policy

Background:

  • Medical humanities in China has developed for over 40 years, with growing demand post-COVID-19.
  • Currently a second-level discipline, medical humanities faces resource limitations hindering societal needs.
  • Upgrading to a first-level discipline would grant access to more educational resources.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To establish a comprehensive indicator system for evaluating medical humanities.
  • To provide a scientific basis for upgrading medical humanities to a first-level discipline in China.

Main Methods:

  • A Delphi technique involving two rounds of expert questionnaires was employed.
  • Expert consensus was defined as a coefficient of variation below 0.2.
  • The reliability of expert opinions was assessed using an authoritative coefficient (Cr).

Main Results:

  • Twenty-five experts participated, reaching consensus on 11 first-grade and 48 second-grade indices.
  • The experts demonstrated high reliability, with an authoritative coefficient of 0.804.
  • The developed indices provide a robust framework for assessment.

Conclusions:

  • The study successfully established a reliable foundation for evaluating the maturity of medical humanities.
  • The findings support the strategic advancement of medical humanities as a first-level discipline.
