Abstract

Background: The purpose of this study is to translate the AITCS (Assessment of Inter-professional Team Collaboration Scale), a measurement scale of IPC (Inter-Professional Collaboration), and the AICLS (Assessment of Interprofessional Leadership Scale), a measurement scale of leadership in IPC, into Japanese and to examine their reliability and construct validity. Methods: AITCS and AICLS were translated from English into Japanese, AITCSII-J and AICLS-J were created, and their reliability and construct validity were examined. Results: The Cronbach'sα coefficient for AITCSII-J was 0.9, indicating excellent internal consistency. For AICLS-J, Cronbach'sα, which indicates good reliability of the data, was 0.987, indicating good internal consistency of the questions. The original AICLS scale consists of 28 questions, but was refined to 10 questions after verification. Conclusion: AITCSII-J and AICLS-J show acceptable evidence of validity and reliability, suggesting that these scales are useful for measuring IPC in Japanese healthcare settings.
