  • The importance of global competence has been acknowledged in medical care as well as medical education. This study aims to develop a scale assessing the global competence of medical students, determine the factor structure and internal consistency of the scale and explore the underlying factors influencing the global competence of Chinese medical students in 8-year programs. A questionnaire (Global Competence Assessment Scale for Medical Students, MS-GCAS) was developed, and a cross-sectional multicenter survey was conducted in 1062 medical students from 10 medical schools in China. Questionnaire data were analyzed using exploratory factor analysis and multiple linear regression. The exploratory factor analysis revealed a three-factor scale. The MS-GCAS has good internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha = 0.79 to 0.87). In the multivariate regression analyses, medical education stage (p<0.05), the frequency of communicating with foreigners (p<0.001), multilingual ability (p<0.05) and grade level (p<0.05) are associated with the MS-GCAS scores. The MS-GCAS has the potential to serve as a tool to measure the global competence of medical students. This three-factor scale can be used by medical education researches to improve future versions. Medical schools should conduct further educational reforms to promote students' global competence.
