The Impact of Advanced Pharmacy Practice Experiences on Students' Readiness for Self-directed Learning

Abstract: Objective. To evaluate the impact of advanced pharmacy practice experiences (APPEs) on doctor of pharmacy (PharmD) students' readiness for self-directed learning. Methods. The Self-Directed Learning Readiness Scale (SDLRS) was administered to students prior to and after completing their APPEs. SDLRS is a validated instrument that determines the relative degree to which students have the attitudes and motivation to engage in self-directed learning.Results. Seventy-seven (64%) students completed the SDLRS prior … Show more

“…The factor structure of the subscales were recently reexamined by Fisher in response to the work of Hendry and Ginns in identifying a 4-factor model using Fisher's scale with medical students instead of the 3-factor model. 12,13 The confirmatory factor analysis also revealed 11 redundant items from the original 2001 scale; however, Fisher maintains a recommendation for the 40-item scale until further research examines the scales factor structure. 13 Whether these potential limitations would influence the scale's ability to show an association between a high readiness for self-directed learning and academic performance is unclear.…”

Most of the research that has tested the association between self-directed learning and academic performance has used Guglielmino's SDLRS.…”

“…Sin embargo, esta escala ha sido objeto de reparos: problemas para replicar su estructura factorial 8 , falta de estabilidad como medida 14 , problemas en su aplicabilidad 15 y se ha cuestionado su validez para medir aprendizaje independiente 8 . Ante tales reparos surge como alternativa la escala de Fisher, King y Tague, proponiendo tres factores: deseo por aprender, autocontrol y autogestión del aprendizaje 13 , la que se ha utilizado en estudiantes australianos de programas de pregrado en enfermería 13 y medicina 16 y en doctorandos de farmacia 17,18 siendo validada en los dos primeros, aunque en alumnos de medicina se identifi caron cuatro factores: autoevaluación crítica, autoefi ciacia en el aprendizaje, autodeterminación y organización efectiva del aprendizaje 16 .…”
