背景和目的。在本文中，我们提出了一种基于教育和心理测试标准的高级调查心理测量评估协议。我们使用阿尔伯塔背景工具（ACT）作为可以应用该协议的示例调查。方法。解决了数据映射、可接受性、可靠性和有效性问题。根据缺失数据的频率和完成调查所需的时间来评估可接受性。可靠性通过内部一致性系数和信息函数进行评估。采用统一的有效性方法，包括根据工具内容、响应过程、内部结构以及与其他变量的关系积累证据。我们还解决了汇总到更高级别（例如护理单位）时评估调查数据表现的问题。讨论。在本文中，我们提出了一种使用阿尔伯塔情境工具（ACT）作为调查样本对调查数据进行高级心理测量评估的协议；该协议正在 ACT 调查中应用。任何调查的心理测量评估对于获得可靠且有效的研究结果至关重要。该协议可适用于任何护理调查。
Background and Purpose. In this paper, we present a protocol for advanced psychometric assessments of surveys based on the Standards for Educational and Psychological Testing. We use the Alberta Context Tool (ACT) as an exemplar survey to which this protocol can be applied. Methods. Data mapping, acceptability, reliability, and validity are addressed. Acceptability is assessed with missing data frequencies and the time required to complete the survey. Reliability is assessed with internal consistency coefficients and information functions. A unitary approach to validity consisting of accumulating evidence based on instrument content, response processes, internal structure, and relations to other variables is taken. We also address assessing performance of survey data when aggregated to higher levels (e.g., nursing unit). Discussion. In this paper we present a protocol for advanced psychometric assessment of survey data using the Alberta Context Tool (ACT) as an exemplar survey; application of the protocol to the ACT survey is underway. Psychometric assessment of any survey is essential to obtaining reliable and valid research findings. This protocol can be adapted for use with any nursing survey.
