Interprofessional Collaboration Scale

The Interprofessional Collaboration Scale contains 13 items to measure three constructs: communication (5 items), accommodation (5 items), and isolation (3 items). The scale's novel feature is that it was conceived and written for multiple-group, round robin, rater judgements of target groups. For example, inpatient medical/surgical wards may be staffed by nurses, physicians, and allied health care professionals. The survey can be completed by nurses (raters) to make physicians and other health professionals targets of the items.

The Contact Hypothesis: An exploration of its further potential in interprofessional education.

This paper highlights the research challenges that face researchers wishing to build the evidence base around interprofessional education (IPE). It concentrates specifically on the short-term impact of IPE on a student population. The Contact Hypothesis is a particularly useful theoretical framework to address these challenges as well as guide the development of IPE interventions. A brief description of this theory and the closely-related theories of social identity and categorization is made in order to support and clarify this theoretical position.
