Dual-Task Interprofessional Education Program Evaluation: Student Perceptions and Outcomes

Wendy Romney's study describes the implementation and evaluation of an 8-week interprofessional education program for physical therapy and speech-language pathology students. The dataset includes mixed-methods results from focus groups and surveys, with 17 student participants and follow-up data at 6 months. The data was last updated on 2026-04-30.

Use Cases

• Analyzing student perceptions of interprofessional collaboration based on qualitative themes like 'Learning to Co-Treat' and 'Teamwork'.
• Evaluating changes in interprofessional competencies over time based on survey results measuring Interprofessional Interactions and Values.
• Studying the application of the Interprofessional Education Collaborative (IPEC) Core Competencies framework in an experiential learning context.
• Modeling program implementation for future educators based on the described dual-task intervention structure in chronic stroke rehabilitation.

Strengths

• Mixed-methods design integrates qualitative focus group data from 17 students with quantitative survey results.
• Longitudinal data collection includes baseline, immediate post-program, and 6-month follow-up timepoints.
• Study establishes trustworthiness through peer debriefing, member checking, external audits, and triangulation.
• Specific statistical results are reported, such as significant improvements in Interprofessional Values (X²(2)=14.97, p<.01).

Limitations

• Dataset is very small at 30.9 KB, indicating limited scope and likely a document summarizing study findings rather than raw data.
• Row count and column-level documentation are unknown; data structure must be inferred from the description.
• The participant sample is limited to 17 students from two specific healthcare disciplines.
