A Train-the-Trainer Simulation Program Implemented Between Two International Partners.

With the expansion of global health initiatives focused on healthcare professional training, it is important to ensure that such training is scalable and sustainable.

Although SBE is widely used in the United States, its integration globally is limited, which can impact the potential of SBE in many countries.

Thai adaptation and reliability of three versions of the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS 11, BIS-15, and BIS-Brief).

Long, short, and brief versions of the Barratt Impulsiveness scale (BIS-11, BIS-15, and BIS-Brief) were tested in an adult Thai population. The BIS-11T and BIS-15T were translated, back-translated, and administered to a non-clinical population (n = 305) of native Thai speakers who returned 2 weeks later for re-test. BIS-Brief-T psychometrics were calculated post-hoc.
