Abstract

Introduction: Interprofessional Education (IPE) requires valid and context-sensitive instruments to evaluate collaborative competencies, yet such tools are limited in Indonesia. Purpose: This study developed and validated the Assessment for Interprofessional Education (APRON) instrument using expert judgment. Method: Three experts in nursing and health education assessed nine items through Aiken’s V index, Result: APRON demonstrated acceptable validity across domains of attitude, knowledge, and skills (V = 0.65–0.83). These findings confirm APRON’s multidimensional structure and contextual relevance for evaluating IPE performance. Conclusion: APRON provides a standardized and feasible assessment tool for Indonesian healthcare students and holds potential for cross-cultural adaptation, contributing to global efforts to strengthen IPE evaluation.
