Omaha System problem concepts describe a comprehensive, holistic view of health in simple terms that have been represented in a set of prototype icons intended for universal use by consumers and clinicians. The purpose of this study was to evaluate Omaha System prototype icons internationally across ten languages through an on-line survey and in-person focus groups. The icons were generally rated above 3 on a scale of 1 to 5 by 1568 survey respondents, with notable exceptions for some of the more abstract concepts. Overall, the icons were rated 3.49 on a scale of 1 = strongly disagree to 5 = strongly agree, with a range of 3.09 (Japanese language) to 3.88 (Norwegian language). A pattern of differential agreement was noted among respondents from Asiatic languages compared to all other languages. Feedback from survey respondents and focus group participants was used to refine the icons. General themes related to icon development were synthesized from focus group interviews. Further research should continue to refine and evaluate the icons in different languages for international use to support health literacy through visual literacy.
Aim
To refine and assess the inter‐rater reliability and content validity of the embedded interface of nursing/midwifery activities in the Time Capture Tool (TimeCaT) using an interface terminology, the Omaha System.
Methods
This methodological study was conducted in two Family Health Centers (FHCs) in Turkey with a total of 13 nurses and midwives. In phase one, five nurses/midwives in a FHC were observed for a total of 80 hr, and 84 nursing/midwifery activities were generated and validated with 15 content experts. In phase two, the nursing/midwifery activities were mapped to the Omaha System and inter‐rater reliability of the mapping was assessed. The mapping was validated with seven content experts. The nursing/midwifery activities were embedded in the interface of the TimeCaT. In phase three, the embedded interface of the TimeCaT was evaluated while observing eight nurses and midwives in the other FHC.
Results
The scale‐level content validity index was 0.98 for the generated activities in phase one and 0.96 for the mapped activities in phase two. Kappa statistics for inter‐rater reliability was 0.88 for Omaha System problems, 0.83 for categories and 0.83 for targets. The nursing/midwifery activities were adequately mapped to the Omaha System. The embedded interface of the TimeCaT has acceptable inter‐rater reliability and content validity values for using in the Turkish FHC context.
Conclusion
The study results confirm that the TimeCaT using the Omaha System is a valid and reliable tool to measure nursing/midwifery workflow in FHC settings.
The purpose of this study is to know what teachers in home day-care center experience on human relationship. Participants of this study are 12 teachers in home day-care center who worked C, M and J cities. And they can offer important informations about human relationship. We used in-depth interview and focus group interview divided three group depending on teaching experiences. During focus group interview, teachers in home day-care center shared their human relationship based on sympathy. Data were recorded and documented. As a result, first, teachers in home day-care center have inner conflicts. Second, they recognized about their director negatively. Third, they thought co-workers are competitor. Lastly, they suggested alternative perspective and approach that can be overcome from human relationship.
