Desired competencies of doctorally prepared allied health faculty.
In 1994, a two-round adaptation of the Delphi method was used to assist deans of the Association of Schools of Allied Health Professions (ASAHP) institutional member schools offering programs at the baccalaureate level or higher to determine important competencies for future doctorally prepared allied health faculty. Thirty-six of the 68 deans invited to participate completed the second questionnaire. Statistical analysis on the frequency of responses and calculated mean responses, including one-sample Z-tests and adjusted p-values, identified 21 important competencies. This information should be considered by universities in the development or modification of graduate program curricula for the preparation of allied health faculty.
