About The IAPCC-SV

Application:
The Inventory For Assessing The Process Of Cultural Competence Among Healthcare Professionals- Student Version (IAPCC-SV) is a tool designed to measure the level of cultural competence among undergraduate students in the health professions.

Description:
The IAPCC-SV is a pencil/paper self-assessment tool that measures the level of cultural competence among undergraduate students.  It consists of 20 items that measure the five cultural constructs of desire, awareness, knowledge, skill and encounters.  The IAPCC-SV uses a 4-point likert scale reflecting the response categories of strongly agree, agree, disagree, strongly disagree.  Completion time is approximately 10 -15 minutes.  Scores range from 20-80 and indicate whether a student is operating at a level of cultural proficiency, cultural competence, cultural awareness or cultural incompetence.  Higher scores depict a higher level of cultural competence. The IAPCC-SV has been translated into Chinese, Thai and Korean.

Development Of The Instrument:
The IAPCC-SV© was developed in 2007 by Dr. Campinha-Bacote.  It is based on the Inventory for Assessing the Process of Cultural Competence Among Healthcare Professionals-Revised (IAPCC-R©) (link).  Researchers using the IAPCC-R© noted that the reliability of this tool was slightly lower when used with students.  Vito, Roszkowski, & Wieland (2005) noted in a study of 695 undergraduate student nurses that the IAPCC-R© could be further revised resulting in a higher reliability of this tool.  The IAPCC-SV© is a result of modifying the response format of the IAPCC-R© to reflect only responses of strongly agree, agree, disagree, strongly disagree and modifying and deleting selected questions on the IAPCC-R©.

Fike, D., Denton, J., and Esparza, S. (2015). Calculation of Minimal Detectable Change of Individual Constructs of a Cultural Competence Measurement Instrument.  8th Annual UIW Research Week Proceedings - Poster Presentation Abstracts, pg. 71.
Seventy-nine doctor of physical therapy (DPT) and undergraduate Athletic Training and Rehabilitation Science (ATHP) students completed the IAPCC-SV and 52 students completed a retest 1 week later to allow calculation of the MDC of the IAPCC-SV. Test-retest reliability and MDC were calculated. For the combined DPT and ATHP group, the MDC95 for the entire instrument is 4.10. The MDC95 of the individual constructs are as follows: Cultural Awareness = 1.34, Knowledge = 2.02, Skill = 1.52, Encounters = 1.61, and Desire = 1.17. The MDC patterns were consistent between the two student groups (DPT and ATHP) for the cumulative assessment tool and across the individual constructs. The results provide educators in physical therapy educational programs and other allied health educational programs with the ability to assess individual domains of learning during the process of achieving cultural competence. Specifically, educators can assess for meaningful changes in Cultural Knowledge, Skills, and Awareness, which are the primary goals of classroom and curricular activities designed to facilitate improvements in cultural competence.

A convenience sampling method was used to recruit undergraduate nursing students from two colleges (Jiangsu Vocational College of Medicine and Jiangsu College of Nursing) of undergraduate (Four-year Baccalaureate Degree) Programs of Nursing. The IAPCC-SV tool was translated into Chinese by a bilingual researcher using two of the commonly used techniques in the literature including translation-back-translation and bilingual technique. Ethical approval was obtained from the Research and Ethics Committees of two colleges, including Jiangsu Vocational college of Medicine, China and Jiangsu college of nursing, China. The SPSS 24.0 was used to analyze the data including descriptive and inferential statistics to test correlations and comparisons among variables. The overall level of Cronbach's alpha (α=0.83) as internal consistency and reliability.

Daugherty-Wood, H. (2015).  Measuring the Impact of Cultural Competence Training for Dental Hygiene Students. The purpose of this study was to measure the level of cultural competence of senior level dental hygiene students. The students were given a pretest, the Inventory for Assessing the Process of Cultural Competence- Student Version (IAPCC-SV). The students then completed the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of Minority Health (OMH) Cultural Competency Program for Oral Health Professionals, a three module online training program. Three weeks after the pre-test the students re-took the IAPCC-SV. The results indicated that there was a significant increase from the pre-test mean (55.14) to the post-test mean (61.37).

The purpose of this mixed method study was to measure cultural competence and elicit perceptions of Mexican culture among undergraduate and graduate nursing students enrolled in two study abroad courses in Mexico. The Culturally Competent Model of Care (Campinha-Bacote, 2007) provided the framework for the study. Two groups of undergraduate (n=13) and two groups of graduate (n=17) nursing students participated in the study. Before and after the courses, undergraduate students were administered the Inventory for Assessing the Process of Cultural Competence Among Health Care Professionals-Student Version (IAPCC-SV) and graduate students were administered the (IAPCC-R)  for health care providers. The instruments measure four categories of cultural competence (proficient, competent, aware, and incompetent). A paired t-test was used to determine statistical significance in the pre and post tests in each group. The results in part showed an increase in all group mean scores on the post tests with a statistical difference (p= .021) in one undergraduate group and (p=.024) in one graduate group. The level of cultural competence of undergraduate groups (competent) was higher than the graduates (aware).

The purpose of this study was to document the internal consistency and test re-test reliability of the IAPCC-SV for student physical therapists. In addition, the effect of a cultural competence education module on the cultural competence of student physical therapists as measured by the IAPCC-SV was conducted. Thirty-nine (39) student physical therapists in their first semester of their physical therapist education participated in this study.  Participants completed the IAPCC-SV, Time 1 (test), and again the following week, Time 2 (re-test/pre-test) prior to any cultural competence education. Subjects then participated in a cultural competence education module and completed the IAPCC-SV, Time 3 (post-test). Results revealed that the IAPCC-SV demonstrated good internal consistency with a Cronbach’s Alpha of .75 and good test-re-test reliability (ICC(2,) of .870.  This study provides support for the use of the IAPCC-SV to measure cultural competence of student physical therapists.

Clevenger, K. (2011) Effects of a Formal Service-Learning Program on Baccalaureate Nursing Student’s Perception of Their Level of Cultural Competence.
The purpose of this quasi-experimental study was to test Kolb’s theory of experiential learning, related to the effect of a formal service learning program on students’ perceived level of cultural competence. The research question examined the impact of a formal service learning program in a baccalaureate nursing program on developing culturally competent individuals, compared to traditional community service. The nonequivalent control group pre/post design used the Inventory for Assessing the Process of Cultural Competence Among Healthcare Professionals Student Version (IAPCC-SV). The treatment group of 37 entry-level baccalaureate nursing program (BNP) students received a formalized service learning program, while the control group of 37 upper-level BNP students took part in traditional community service. Both groups were administered the IAPCC-SV before and after participating in a service project. A t test was conducted and data analysis revealed no significant differences on the pretest, and significant differences on the posttest. The post intervention results indicated a greater level of cultural competence among traditional service-learning program students; however, students within both groups perceived themselves to be operating within a level of cultural competence, and levels increased for both groups, following the service experiences. The results suggest any type of service experience can reinforce the importance of caring for diverse populations, increase cultural competence, and thus contributing to positive social change.

Marie, J. (2010).  Influence of an Overseas Clinical Placement on the Acquisition of Cultural Competence in Chiropractic Students. Murdoch University, Australia. Contact: J.Maire@murdoch.edu.au
The purpose of this study was to assess the level of cultural competence in twenty-two students in their 5th year of a chiropractic course in Perth Australia participated in a voluntary clinical placement in Siliguri India using the IAPCC-SV immediately prior to their placement. Nineteen students from the same cohort who did not participate in the placement served as controls. A post-test survey was administered to both groups within two weeks of their return to Australia. There was no significant difference in the Level of Cultural Competence score, nor any of the subscale scores between experimental and control groups before the intervention. After the overseas placement, the overall level of Cultural Competence increased by 14% (P < 0.05) in the experimental group, while the control group showed no change. Of note, the Overseas born participants scored significantly higher on the Overall Level of Competence than did the Australian-born participants (5%) although it is questionable whether this is an important difference. Both groups (overseas-born and Australian-born) increased their level of competence by the same degree following the intervention.

Fitzgerald, E., Cronin, S., and Campinha-Bacote. (2008). Psychometric Testing of a Proposed Student Version of the Tool, “Inventory for Assessing the Process of Cultural Competence Among Healthcare Professionals-Revised
The purpose of this study was to provide nurse educators with a reliable and valid tool for assessing the level of cultural competence among student nurses. The IAPCC-SV was administered to 91 undergraduate nursing students in a BSN program at a private university in the mid western part of the USA. Reliability testing revealed a Cronbach’s alpha of .783.  Construct validity was addressed, in that the IAPCC-SV is based on the five constructs of Campinha-Bacote’s theoretical model of cultural competence in healthcare delivery.  Content validity was established, in that the items on the IAPCC-SV clearly reflect the review of the literature of cultural competence in healthcare delivery that identifies awareness/attitudes, skill and knowledge as domains of cultural competence.  Face and content validity was established by reviews of national experts in the field of transcultural healthcare.
