ABSTRACT

Objective To verify the evaluation index system of clinical science and technology achievements, taking the evaluation of science and technology achievements in Guangdong province as a demonstration. Methods We specified the criteria for grading each index included in the evaluation index system that we proposed before. 5 experts in clinical medicine were invited to evaluate 20 achievements applying for the Award of Guangdong Science and Technology Achievements in 2010. The weighted sum of scores for each achievement was calculated and used for further analysis. The reliability and validation of the system were assessed. Results The Cronbach's ? coefficient of the index system was 0. 91, indicating good reliability. There were high correlation of each measure with the total score and their affiliated grade one index. The scores that the experts graded were correlated with the original results of evaluation (rs= 0. 71, P ＜0. 000 1), but there remained some inconsistence. Conclusion The demonstration based on investigation data indicates that the evaluation system is easy to handle and has satisfactory reliability and validation. It can be applied to the evaluation of science and technology achievements in clinical medicine.
