Cultural adaptation and psychometric validation of the university of the West England interprofessional questionnaire (UWE-IP) for Turkish health education programs: a cross-sectional study.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe objective of this study was to assess the accuracy and consistency of the University of the West England Interprofessional Questionnaire (UWE-IP) in Turkish health education settings. The aim was to evaluate its efficacy in gauging interprofessional attitudes among students from diverse healthcare fields.
methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted with 391 students from medical, nursing, and home care technician programs who participated in clinical internships. The UWE-IP was utilized to evaluate the psychometric properties of the scale, utilising exploratory factor analysis (EFA) to establish the internal structure and reliability.
resultsThe original four-factor structure of the UWE-IP scale was refined to a three-factor model, encompassing 'communication and teamwork,' 'interprofessional learning,' and a combined 'interprofessional interaction and relationships' factor. This revised structure demonstrated sound reliability and validity y, with a Cronbach's alpha of 0.80. The factor loadings varied between 0.044 and 0.746, demonstrating a strong level of support for the scale's reliability in assessing interprofessional attitudes in the Turkish setting.
conclusionsThe study affirms the validity and reliability of the UWE-IP scale for implementation in Turkish health education, highlighting its significance in assessing and improving interprofessional education. The cultural adaptation of the scale represents an important step forward in evaluating multidisciplinary training results, thereby contributing to improved healthcare services and patient outcomes in Turkey.
