- 摘要：BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Mentoring benefits faculty members and institutions, but mentoring efforts are difficult to sustain. Measuring the domains of mentoring could focus efforts to achieve desired outcomes. This project investigated the factor structure of a "mentoring experiences" measurement instrument. METHODS: A previously developed instrument was revised and distributed to 108 faculty members in one medical school department as part of the department's professional development process. RESULTS: The response rate was 89%. The instrument's Cronbach's alpha was 0.96, and factor analysis produced four factors with eigenvalues greater than 1 and factor loadings >0.400 for 27 items. Discussion: This study determined that an instrument measuring domains of the prot訩's experience is reliable. This instrument may be useful to guide and evaluate mentoring initiatives.
