Abstract

Background: Critical thinking and learning are interrelated. Critical thinking can increase the ability of nurses to make thoughtful decisions. Therefore, its measurement with valid and reliable tools is essential.Purpose: This study was performed in nursing, midwifery and occupational therapy students of Medical Universities in Tehran to translate make fluent and measure the CONTENT VALIDITY INDEX and RELIABILITY of "California Critical Thinking Skills Test."Methods: Face validity was identified through translating the test by the researchers and two Farsi and English professors. Then, the translation was evaluated by 13 faculty members of Tehran and Shaheed Beheshti Nursing and Midwifery Colleges and 6 selected students of each discipline. Content validity was determined in three domains including relativeness, clarity and simplicity.Reliability of the tool was identified by internal RELIABILITY of subscales and external RELIABILITY. The former was calculated by measuring the correlation of each question with total score of the test and the latter was identified by test retest method in 16 students with a 2-weeks interval to measure coefficient of correlation between the responses.Results: Findings showed the range of content validity between %80 and %96.87, denoting a proper amount. Coefficients of correlation for each subscale were 0.71 for analysis, 0.77 for evaluation, 0.71 for inference, 0.77 for inductive reasoning, and 0.71 for deductive reasoning. These indicated a positive and significant correlation of subscales with one another as well as with the total score of the test (r=0.86). The correlation between test-retest results was 0.90 with Kappa coefficient equal to 0.81.Conclusion: Findings showed a proper validity and RELIABILITY of the test. Further measurements of other types of validity such as concurrent validity are suggested.
