Clinical Information System Questionnaire
CISQ-15©
The Clinical Information System Questionnaire (CISQ-15) is a new 15-item tool designed to measure staff involvement in and attitudes towards Clinical Information System Implementation. The tool was developed to evaluate the implementation of Critical Care Clinical Information systems (CCCIS).
It was developed during a clinical trial which tested the effects of a combined managerial and information technology interventions on staff attitudes and patient outcomes.
The CISQ-15 appears to have high construct validity and internal consistency, although further studies are needed. Such studies are underway, and an expanded 36-item version, the CISQ-36, is now available.
The CISQ-15 was administered three times, and although now the researchers are building from the expanded tool, the CISQ-36, we anticipate that the CISQ-15 may be used if a shorter tool fits the needs of the research or institution.
