BackgroundThe learning environment is one of the most influential factors in training of medical residents. The Dutch Residency Educational Climate Test (DRECT) is one of the strongest instruments for measuring the learning environment. However, it has not been translated in French. The objective of this study is the psychometric validation of the DRECT French version. MethodsAfter translation of the DRECT questionnaire into French, residents of five Moroccan hospitals were invited to complete the questionnaire between July and September 2018. Internal consistency, temporal stability and confirmatory factor analysis were used to analyze psychometric properties of the translated version. ResultsDuring the study period, 211 residents completed the questionnaire. The French version had a good internal consistency (Cronbach alpha score = 0.95) and a good temporal stability (correlation score between two measurements = 0.89). Confirmatory factor analysis showed an adequate model fit with the following indicators: SRMR = 0.058 / RMSEA = 0.07 / CFI = 0.88 / TLI = 0.87. ConclusionThis study enabled the psychometric validation of DRECT French translation. It could be used to evaluate the residency learning environment in francophone countries.
