This study developed and validated the Clinical Simulation Learning teamwork and leadership scale. This new tool measures the impact of clinical simulation on developing teamwork and leadership skills in nursing students.
Area of Science:
- Healthcare Education
- Simulation-Based Learning
- Nursing Professional Development
Background:
- Advanced simulation is crucial for developing technical and transversal skills like teamwork and leadership.
- Existing tools measure technical skills and student satisfaction but not transversal competencies in clinical settings.
Purpose of the Study:
- To develop and validate a scale for measuring the impact of clinical simulation on teamwork and leadership competencies.
- To assess the development and application of these transversal skills in clinical practice.
Main Methods:
- A multicentre study involving two Spanish universities.
- Development and validation of the Clinical Simulation Learning Teamwork and Leadership Scale using a Delphi method, pilot testing, and construct validation with 207 nursing students.
- Adherence to STROBE guidelines for reporting.
Main Results:
- Content validity was confirmed using Aiken's V.
- Reliability was assessed with Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's Omega, showing good internal consistency.
- Intraobserver reliability was positive, as indicated by the intraclass correlation in a subsample.
Conclusions:
- The Clinical Simulation Learning teamwork and leadership scale is a valid instrument for assessing transversal competencies.
- This validated scale can enhance student training by evaluating the impact of simulation on skill development.
