Development and Validation of a Genomic Knowledge Scale to Advance Informed Decision-Making Research in Genomic Sequencing

1 Jan 2017

Abstract excerpt

Background: This study evaluated the psychometric properties of a new, comprehensive measure of knowledge about genomic sequencing, the University of North Carolina Genomic Knowledge Scale (UNC-GKS). Methods: The UNC-GKS assesses knowledge in four domains thought to be critical for informed decision making about genomic sequencing. The scale was validated using classical test theory and item response theory in...
