Development and validation of an instrument to measure the postgraduate clinical learning and teaching educational environment for hospital-based junior doctors in the UK.
This paper describes the development and validation of a 40-item inventory, the Postgraduate Hospital Educational Environment Measure (PHEEM), by researchers in Scotland and the West Midlands using a combination of grounded theory and Delphi process. The instrument has since returned an alpha reliability >0.91 in two administrations in England and may be a useful instrument in the quality assurance process for postgraduate medical education and training.
