Exploration of validity evidence for core residency entrustable professional activities in Chinese pediatric residency.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

This study seeks to explore validity and reliability evidence for core residency entrustable professional activities (CR-EPAs) that were developed by Peking University First Hospital (PKUFH) in 2020.

Methods

A prospective cohort study was conducted in PKUFH. Trainers (raters) assessed pediatric residents on CR-EPAs over 1 academic year, bi-annually. Critical components within a validity evidence framework were examined: response process (rater perceptions), the internal structure (reliability and contributions of different variance sources), and consequences (potential use of a cutoff score).

Results

In total, 37 residents were enrolled, and 111 and 99 trainers' ratings were collected in Fall 2020 and Spring 2021, respectively. For rater perceptions, all
