Readiness for Interprofessional Learning Scale (RIPLS)

The RIPLS is a 19-item self-report questionnaire designed to measure healthcare students' attitudes and readiness toward interprofessional learning and collaboration. Developed by Parsell and Bligh in 1999, it assesses three core dimensions of interprofessional readiness: teamwork and collaboration, professional identity, and recognition of roles and responsibilities across professions. The RIPLS is widely used in health professions education to evaluate the effectiveness of interprofessional education initiatives.
