Moroccan residents' perception of hospital learning environment measured with French version of the postgraduate hospital educational environment measure.

ABSTRACT: PURPOSE:This study aimed to assess the educational environment of resident in Morocco and to compare the residents' perception depending on their specialties. METHODS:We applied the French version of the postgraduate hospital educational environment measure (PHEEM) to measure the educational environment in 6 hospitals in Rabat from January to June 2017. Internal reliability of the questionnaire was assessed using Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Principal component analysis was conducted to assess the construct validity of the three subscales of the PHEEM questionnaire. Variance analysis (ANOVA test) was performed to compare means of PHEEM overall, subscale, and each item score among 6 specialties. RESULTS:The response of 255 resident was included. The 40 items PHEEM questionnaire showed reliability with a Cronbach's alpha of 0.91. Principal component analysis on all 40 items suggested three factors explaining 48% of the variance with better results for the teaching subscale. Moroccan resident perceived their educational environment as more positive than negative. There was a significant difference in the overall and subscales score among the 6 specialties. CONCLUSION:French version of the PHEEM score is a valid and reliable instrument in Morocco. Moroccan resident perceived their educational environment as more positive than negative but room for improvement of many challenges particularly the poor infrastructure, the suboptimal quality of supervision, and teaching and inadequate work regulation remained.

Project description:IntroductionCurrent instruments to evaluate the postgraduate medical educational environment lack theoretical frameworks and are relatively long, which may reduce response rates. We aimed to develop and validate a brief instrument that, based on a solid theoretical framework for educational environments, solicits resident feedback to screen the postgraduate medical educational environment quality.MethodsStepwise, we developed a screening instrument, using existing instruments to assess educational environment quality and adopting a theoretical framework that defines three educational environment domains: content, atmosphere and organization. First, items from relevant existing instruments were collected and, after deleting duplicates and items not specifically addressing educational environment, grouped into the three domains. In a Delphi procedure, the item list was reduced to a set of items considered most important and comprehensively covering the three domains. These items were triangulated against the results of semi-structured interviews with 26 residents from three teaching hospitals to achieve face validity. This draft version of the Scan of Postgraduate Educational Environment Domains (SPEED) was administered to residents in a general and university hospital and further reduced and validated based on the data collected.ResultsTwo hundred twenty-three residents completed the 43-item draft SPEED. We used half of the dataset for item reduction, and the other half for validating the resulting SPEED (15 items, 5 per domain). Internal consistencies were high. Correlations between domain scores in the draft and brief versions of SPEED were high (>0.85) and highly significant (p<0.001). Domain score variance of the draft instrument was explained for ≥80% by the items representing the domains in the final SPEED.ConclusionsThe SPEED comprehensively covers the three educational environment domains defined in the theoretical framework. Because of its validity and brevity, the SPEED is promising as useful and easily applicable tool to regularly screen educational environment quality in postgraduate medical education.
