Communication and social skills in education of health occupation students: attitudes and validation on nationwide parallel group randomized study
The aim was to investigate whether social skills’ training (SST) influences the attitudes towards communication skills learning and to validate Communication Skills Attitudes Scale (CSAS) among students of health studies in the Republic of Croatia. SST (10 workshops) was implemented for this purpose. 70 students of 1st year in four Croatian university health studies were randomly selected to take part in the training and 169 students were a part of the control group. CSAS was applied at the beginning and end of the training to both groups. The results indicated good metric characteristics in relation to CSAS and its two-factor structure (positive attitude scale and negative attitude scale). Furthermore, we did not record significant change in attitudes towards communication skills learning in both groups. However, pursuant to average results from the subscales attitudes towards communication skills learning, we noticed that the negative attitudes tend to decrease and positive tend to increase. This indicates that 10 workshops might have been insufficient in order to change the attitude.
