Our research approach and team

The evaluation of competencies is based on the “4D Framework” 1.0 – CCR Framework Rev 1.0, developed by The Center for Curriculum Redesign.

  • Assessment showed to be sensitive at all levels: scale, dimension, and items.
  • Reliability analyses showed excellent internal consistency scores (a = 0.94).
  • Convergent validity analyses showed high correlations with related tools.
  • Divergent validity analyses showed lower correlations with unrelated constructs.
