Description
Olalla Vázquez-Cancela and five co-authors validate a questionnaire measuring medical students' grasp of antibiotic teaching and resistance, in a study from twenty twenty-four. Antibiotic misuse is a top global health threat, and training future prescribers well is a frontline defense. The forty-four-item survey spans eight themes, from diagnosing infection to when antibiotics should be withheld.
Nearly three hundred students at one Spanish university completed it. Experts and student focus groups confirmed the wording was clear and complete. Internal consistency scored high, items discriminated well, and factor analysis recovered the eight intended themes. The authors offer the validated tool for checking how well universities teach stewardship.
