Aim: This study was conducted to evaluate the psychometric properties of a rubric to assess nursing student performance in medium- and low-fidelity simulation.
Method: A psychometric study was carried out. Content validity was explored by a group of experts. Internal consistency was determined by means of Cronbach's coefficient alpha. Interrater agreement and the level of concordance were established by the kappa coefficient and intraclass correlation index.
Results: The relevance of the dimensions and the definition of each category scored higher than 3.25 on a Likert-type scale (maximum value of 4); content validity ratio values were close to +1. The kappa index was above 0.61 (p < .001) in all dimensions, thereby indicating a good level of interrater agreement; the intraclass correlation index showed values above .82 (p < .001).
Conclusion: The rubric appears to be psychometrically sound, thus supporting its reliability.
