Introduction: Patient and patient-centered safety in the health care system around the world is a matter of concern, which is considered a big and important challenge in the health system. Therefore, reducing harm and maintaining the safety of patients is one of the professional and ethical duties of all health service providers. This study aimed to evaluate the psychometrics of the Patient Safety and Professionalism Questionnaire in medical residents.
Methods: The present study is a psychometric study. In order to localize the Patient Safety and Professionalism Questionnaire (MSSAPS) with 34 questions and 5 dimensions, the English version of the questionnaire was translated by forward-backward method and then its content and face validity were calculated and approved. To determine the validity of the structure by confirmatory factor analysis and reliability, this questionnaire was provided to 160 residency students at Yazd University of Medical Sciences and their opinions were collected and analyzed. SPSS.21 and PLS (v3.2.8) software were used for data analysis.
Results: In the content validity study, CVR = 0.69 and CVI = 0.84 were obtained. The internal consistency of the questionnaire was confirmed by calculating Cronbach's alpha coefficient (α = 0.859) and a confirmatory factor analysis test was used to evaluate the dimensionality of five domains that the values of CFMIN / DF statistics were equal to 4.96 and the values of CFI, GFI and RMSEA indices were 0.91, 0.92 and 0.08, respectively.
Conclusion: The translated version of the Patient Safety and Professional Questionnaire has acceptable reliability and validity.
