Abstract

Instruments to assess interprofessional behaviors in prelicensure interprofessional education (IPE) lack validity and reliability data. No individual behavioral assessment instrument met all standards of the Quality Appraisal of Interprofessional Learning Scales (QuAILS) checklist (Oates & Davidson, 2015). The IPA and iSOFT instruments provided the most substantial validity and reliability evidence. Future validation research studies of interprofessional education (IPE) behavioral instruments that evaluate interprofessional professionalism (IPP) domains are needed in nursing education.
