The study aims to adapt and validate the Chiba Interprofessional Competency Scale (CICS29) for Turkish-speaking contexts.
The scale underwent translation, back-translation, and expert reviews.
332 health profession students participated in the adaptation process.
Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) evaluated the scale's psychometric properties.
EFA identified a six-factor structure matching the original scale, explaining 57.65% of the variance.
CFA confirmed model fit, with all indices within acceptable ranges.
Cronbach's alpha coefficients ranged from 0.86 to 0.91 across subscales, indicating high internal consistency.

Kolcu et al. (2026) studied this question.
