Clinical Teaching Quality Scale (CTQS)
The CTQS is a self-report questionnaire measuring students' perceptions of their clinical educator's (preceptor, clinical instructor, or mentor) teaching quality and effectiveness. Developed by Ohrling, Hallberg, and Gaberson in the early 2000s, the CTQS evaluates dimensions of clinical teaching including role modeling, knowledge transmission, feedback quality, student empowerment, and development of critical thinking. The scale is used in nursing and health professions education to provide educators with feedback on their teaching performance, identify professional development needs, and inform program quality assurance.
