Abstract: Assessing the constructs that impact active engagement of physiotherapists in clinical educator roles could guide initiatives toward sustainability of this workforce. Part B of this series describes the construction of a single purpose-built instrument from items identified in a scoping review (Part A). A multi-professional panel of clinical education experts undertook a modified e-Delphi across three rounds of review: commenting on the relevance of proposed synthesized items (Round one), voting on revised items and demographic questions (Round two), and authentically completing the instrument (Round three). The response rates from 31 participants were 100% (Round one), 97% (Round two) and 87% (Round 3). This study constructed a new instrument consisting of 40 items designed to assess identified factors that underly participation in clinical education by physiotherapists in Australia. Future study is required to apply the instrument to its target population and to evaluate the instrument's psychometric properties.
