The aims of this study were to further understand the patient experience of symptoms and impacts associated with ACO and to assess whether existing PRO instruments used in asthma and COPD independently have adequate content validity for use in patients with ACO, such that they may be used as outcomes in future clinical trials.
Ten questionnaires were rated to have adequate content validity.
The panel agreed that the 45 item scale had adequate content validity to address the range of numeracy skills required in the management of diabetes.
The second expert panel that evaluated the instrument theoretically according to the self-efficacy theory concluded that the instrument had adequate content to measure outcome and self-efficacy expectancy.
The most common reason selected by faculty was "teaching skills is too time-consuming" followed by "I think students need to have adequate content before they can learn science process skills".
The items were considered as having adequate content validity if agreement was 88% or more; those for which agreement was 70 to 87% were considered questionable; and those with an agreement of 69% or less were rejected.
A measure was reported to have adequate content validity if the following processes were described: 1) how the items were developed or selected [ 18, 19]; 2) how and by whom the content was assessed [ 18, 19]; and 3) if modifications to the content were needed that the revisions addressed the issues identified [ 18, 19].
Bar and cafe owners Sarah Lakin, 51, and brother Mike, 44, consider themselves lucky, despite not having adequate contents insurance and losing £7,000 of fixtures, equipment and stock.
The results suggested that the 12-item Chinese version of TSK-TMD with two factors has adequate internal reliability, test-retest reliability, content validity, construct validity and convergent validity.
Additionally, the current medical and nursing programs were thought to have adequate clinical content to address the HSSP targets.
