چکیده

هدف: اثربخشی مداخلات و برنامه­‌های آموزشی و درمانی در قالب مطالعات مداخله‌­ای، نیازمند ارزیابی اولیه برنامه و امکان­پذیر بودن اجرای آن است که در قالب مطالعه امکان­‌سنجی فراهم می‌­شود. هدف این مطالعه ارائه یک بررسی دقیق از مطالعه امکان­‌سنجی و مؤلفه‌­های آن و همچنین طراحی یک چک­لیست برای ارزیابی امکان­‌سنجی برنامه‌­ها و پروتکل­‌های روان‌شناختی است. روش: ابتدا با توجه به مؤلفه­‌های امکان­‌سنجی، یک چک­لیست در قالب 54 سؤال تهیه شد. پس از تدوین چک ­لیست، جهت بررسی نسبت روایی محتوایی و شاخص روایی محتوایی، 12 متخصص با استفاده از روش نمونه­‌گیری هدفمند انتخاب شدند و به میزان تناسب و ضرورت هر سؤال نمره دادند. یافته‌­ها: میزان تناسب سؤالات از 83/. تا 1 به دست آمد، نتایج S-CVI/UA و S-CVI/Ave و آلفای کرونباخ نشان داد چک­لیست حاضر از شاخص روایی محتوایی و پایایی بالایی برخوردار است. نتیجه­‌گیری: مطالعات امکان­سنجی برای اجرای موفقیت­‌آمیز مداخلات آزمایشی کنترل شده تصادفی به عنوان یکی از مطالعات مهم برای حمایت از اثربخشی مداخله، حیاتی است و شواهد محکمی برای قابل قبول بودن یک مداخله و امکان اجرای آن در بلندمدت فراهم می­‌کنند.

چکیده [English]

Aim: This study aims to assess the effectiveness of educational and therapeutic programs in interventional studies, necessitating the initial evaluation of the program provided in the feasibility study. The primary objective is to present a comprehensive examination of the feasibility study and its components, accompanied by the development of a scale for researchers to evaluate the feasibility of psychological programs and protocols.
 
Method: Initially, a checklist consisting of 54 questions was prepared based on feasibility components. For content validity, 12 experts were selected using purposive sampling, who evaluated the appropriateness and necessity of each question. The results, including content validity ratio, content validity index, S-CVI/UA, S-CVI/Ave, and Cronbach’s alpha, were analyzed.
 
Results: The questions demonstrated high appropriateness scores ranging from 0.83 to 1. Content validity results, S-CVI/UA, S-CVI/Ave, and Cronbach’s alpha indicated that the checklist possesses high content validity index and reliability.
 
Conclusion: Feasibility studies are crucial for the successful implementation of randomized controlled trial interventions. This checklist, with high content validity and reliability, serves as a valuable tool for assessing the feasibility of psychological programs and protocols, contributing to the generation of robust evidence supporting intervention effectiveness and long-term implementation.
