“…The Knowledge factor displayed high factor loadings. It is a factor that is often encountered in models of multicultural competence and its measurement (see Sue, Bernier, Durran, Feinberg, Pedersen, Smith & Vazquez-Nutall, 1982;Pope & Reynolds, 1997;Ponterotto, Gretchen, Utsey, Rieger & Austin, 2002;Kim, Cartwright, Asay & D'Andrea, 2003;Gamst, Dana, Der-Karabetian, Aragon, Arellano, Morrow & Martenson, L., 2004;Deardorff, 2006). It refers to knowledge of multicultural properties associated with a given region or country, knowledge related to cultural and ethnic minorities, foreigners and migrants.The acquisition of such knowledge occurs within the family, at school and through the media.…”

“…Understanding of terms is another factor in the proposed 5-factor solution. All four items of this factor were inspired by MAKSS (Kim, Cartwright, Asay & D'Andrea, 2003). It is a factor with high factor loading due to a low number of items with high reliability (α = .85 ).…”

“…Four existing tools of assessment of multicultural competence were used when designing MCSHPS: The California Brief Multicultural Competence Scale (CBMCS) (Gamst, Dana, Der-Karabetian, Aragon, Arellano, Morrow & Martenson, 2004); The Multicultural Awareness, Knowledge, and Skills Survey (MAKSS) (Kim, Cartwright, Asay & D'Andrea, 2003); Multicultural School Psychology Counseling Competency Scale (MSPCCS) (Rogers & Ponterotto, 1997) and Individual Importance of Multicultural Competence Scale (IIMCS) (Hladik, Hrbackova & Vavrova, 2012). We also analysed other tools, e.g.…”

“…MAKSS is composed of 33 items belonging to three components: knowledge, awareness and skills with responses recorded on a Likert-type scale, based on their nature, using the following bipolar points: 1 = very limited, 4 = very aware; 1 = very limited, 4 = very good; 1 = strongly disagree, 4 = strongly agree (Kim, Cartwright, Asay & D'Andrea, 2003).…”

The study focuses on designing a Multicultural Competence Scale in Helping-Profession Students. The aim was to create an assessment tool of multicultural competence in students of helping professions as such a tool has been non-existent so far in the Central Europe. The scale construction was inspired by the four following instruments: CBMCS, MAKSS, MSPCCS and IIMCS. Through content validation, exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis, the original 58 scales were reduced to a 20-item final version of the MCSHPS, which includes scales of the following five factors: Knowledge, Understanding of terms, Activity, Awareness and Communication skills.

“…Results also indicate that the MAKSS-CE-R accounted for roughly a third of the variance (29.80%) that the original, 60-item MAKSS-CE had accounted for. Hence, this limitation suggests that the MAKSS-CE-R does not capture an exhaustive measurement of multicultural knowledge, awareness and skill (Kim et al, 2003).…”

Valid and reliable instruments to measure and assess cultural competence for oral health care providers are scarce in the literature, and most published scales have been contested due to a lack of item analysis and internal estimates of reliability. The purposes of this study were, irst, to develop a standardized instrument to measure dental students' knowledge of diversity, skills in culturally competent patient-centered communication, and use of culture-centered practices in patient care and, second, to provide preliminary validity support for this instrument. The initial instrument used in this study was a thirty-six-item Likertscale survey entitled the Knowledge, Eficacy, and Practices Instrument for Oral Health Providers (KEPI-OHP). This instrument is an adaption of an initially thirty-three-item version of the Multicultural Awareness, Knowledge, and Skills Scale-Counselor Edition (MAKSS-CE), a scale that assesses factors related to social justice, cultural differences among clients, and cross-cultural client management. After the authors conducted cognitive and expert interviews, focus groups, pilot testing, and item analysis, their initial instrument was reduced to twenty-eight items. The KEPI-OHP was then distributed to 916 dental students (response rate=48.6 percent) across the United States to measure its reliability and assess its validity. Both exploratory and conirmatory factor analyses were conducted to test the scale's validity. The modiication of the survey into a sensible instrument with a relatively clear factor structure using factor analysis resulted in twenty items. A scree test suggested three expressive factors, which were retained for rotation. Bentler's comparative it and Bentler and Bonnett's non-normed indices were 0.95 and 0.92, respectively. A three-factor solution, including eficacy of assessment, knowledge of diversity, and culture-centered practice subscales, comprised of twenty-items was identiied. The KEPI-OHP was found to have reasonable internal consistency reliability to warrant its use for baseline and repeated measures in assessing changes in dental students' growth in cultural competence across four-year dental curricula.
