Adapting organizational culture scale into healthcare professional education: a scale validity and reliability analysis.
Article in Human resources for health, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundOrganizational culture significantly influences the quality of healthcare services and healthcare professional education. Although various scales exist to measure organizational culture at the undergraduate level, validated instruments specifically tailored for healthcare professional education remain scarce. The study aims to validate the adapted scale and provide empirical insights into organizational culture in healthcare professional education.
methodsThe adaptation process involved expert consultations to ensure content and face validity, followed by a mixed-methods approach. Quantitative data were collected from 402 students enrolled in the Faculties of Medicine, Dentistry, and Health Sciences during the 2023-2024 academic year. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were performed to examine the scale's structure. Reliability was assessed using Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's omega coefficients.
resultsExpert review led to the removal of redundant and unclear items, refining the scale to 30 items across five subscales: Structural Order and Formality, Belonging and Collective Responsibility, Achievement and Performance Orientation, Authority and Hierarchy, and Competition Orientation. The Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin measure (0.846) and Bartlett's test confirmed sample adequacy. Exploratory factor analysis explained 40% of the total variance. Confirmatory factor analysis showed acceptable model fit indices (χ
conclusionsThe adapted organizational culture scale is a valid and reliable tool for assessing organizational culture in healthcare professional education. Its use is recommended for tracking cultural changes and supporting strategic educational improvements. Further validation across different institutions and cultural contexts is encouraged to reinforce its generalizability.
