|
Objective : The purpose of this study is to establish a concept called as 'medical service' newly and to develop an reliable and valid scale that measures medical service.
Methods : In order to accomplish these objectives, both conceptual study and empirical study were performed. In a conceptual study, 5 core factors(doctor, medical team, medical facilities, medical process, and hospital) and 24 sub factors were extracted with assistant by 7 experts, based on antecedent studies about components of medical service. In an empirical study, data was taken from 244 adults living in Seoul and Daejeon with the conceptually founded medical service scale.
Results : Results of empirical study showed reliability and validity of the medical service scale. Internal consistency coefficient showed high score of .97 and, in accordance with the conceptual study, "medical treatment factor", "appearance factor", "personal factor", "trust factor" and "dissatisfaction factor" were extracted from the data as the five main factors.
Conclusions : Finally, limitations of this study and directions for further studies are discussed.
