Objective : The aim of this study was to develop evaluation criteria for the accreditation standards of occupational therapy education in Korea.
Methods : Faculty members were surveyed regarding the validity of the evaluation criteria from June to August, 2016. Six categories were developed through a literature review, and the validity of each item was measured on a four-point scale. 84 responses were received and analyzed. Through focus group meetings, the results were reviewed, and the core competency categories and items of occupational therapy were revised. The final evaluation criteria were completed, and their content validity was assessed by ten occupational therapy education experts.
Results : The final evaluation criteria consisted of six categories, 15 items, and 31 sub-items. The mean validity of the items ranged from 3.3 to 4, and the final Content Validity Index (CVI) was between 0.8 and 1. The core work competency of occupational therapy was classified into interview/evaluation and intervention/others, and the mean validity of the sub-categories ranged from 3.0 to 3.6, with a CVI of 1. Actual testing was preferred for assessing the core work competency of both interview/evaluation (40.6%) and intervention/others (37.5%).
Conclusion : The establishment and application of evaluation criteria for occupational therapy education will facilitate the accomplishment of public responsibility and international recognition.
