Validation for the Portuguese language of the Educational Practices Questionnaire (Student Version)

Authorship SCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

Abstract

Objective

To translate and validate the Educational Practices Questionnaire (Student Version) for the Portuguese language.

Methods

Methodological instrument translation and validation study. For the validation process, the event: III Workshop Brazil – Portugal: Care for Critical Patients was set up.

Results

103 nurses participated in the research. The psychometric tests (scale validity and reliability, correlation pattern between the variables, goodness-of-fit test of the sample and sphericity) presented satisfactory results. The clusters found in the factor analysis were not in accordance with the literature. Therefore, the division the original authors had made was followed.

Conclusion

The scale was called: Questionário de Práticas Educativas. The findings demonstrated good psychometric properties and suitable potential use. Further research is needed to consolidate the questionnaire and expand its dimensionality.

1. During the simulation activity, I was able to discuss the ideas and concepts taught in the course with the teacher and other students.
2. I participated actively in the debriefing session after the simulation.
3. I was able to reflect further on my comments during the debriefing session.
4. There was sufficient opportunity during the simulation to discover if I clearly understood the didactic material.
5. I learned from the teacher’s comments before, during or after the simulation.
6. I got clues during the simulation in due time.
7. I had the chance to discuss the objectives of the simulation with my teacher.
8. I was able to discuss ideas and concepts taught during the simulation with my teacher.
9. The teacher was able to respond to the students’ individual needs during the simulation.
10. The use of simulation activities made my learning time more productive.
Factor 2) Collaboration
11. I was able to work with my colleagues during the simulation.
12. During the simulation, my colleagues and I had to work together in clinical practice.
Factor 3) Diverse ways of learning
13. The simulation offered different ways to learn the didactic material.
