Abstrakt | Introduction: The objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) has been adopted by many universities for the assessment of healthcare competencies and as a formative teaching tool in both undergraduate and postgraduate nursing education programs. This pilot study evaluates the validity of OSCE checklists to be used in first-year undergraduate nurse practice education. Methods: The study involved two interconnected methodological phases. In phase one, the degree of complexity phase, essential nursing skills were estimated by a 10-point scale. In phase two, the content validity index phase, the most complex essential nursing skills in nursing were estimated by a four-point scale for analyzing content validity for each item. Results: Nursing educators from the University of Maribor in Slovenia systematically selected and evaluated 6 out of 72 essential nursing skills for developing OSCE checklists. Peripheral cannula insertion was estimated as a skill of "very high complexity" and was used to estimate the content validity index (CVI). For peripheral cannula insertion, it was found that the item-level content validity index for 39 items was ranging from 0.82 to 1.00, which is considered as good content validity evidence. Discussion and conclusions: Findings from the CVI analysis are promising for developing standardized checklists for OSCE and look promising for further research using OSCE as an assessment modality. | |
