Description
Claire Chen and co-authors validate a compassion questionnaire for US patients in a 2024 study. It lifts patient outcomes and clinician resilience measurably. Until recently no rigorous patient-reported measure existed. One such tool had won a comparison against six rivals.
Checking it in an English-speaking American group was the goal. Two hundred seventy-two patients filled out the survey battery. Questions on who they are went with the compassion items. Factor analysis tested the tool's structure. Both the full and five-item short forms fit well. Item loadings ran strong across the board. Its reliability scores were high or top-notch throughout. The overall internal consistency neared the top mark. Researchers and clinicians gain a tool they can trust. It can now be checked like other quality metrics. Training programs can measure what they teach. Care settings beyond the US may adapt it.
