Abstract

The simulated patient methodology (SPM) is considered the "gold standard" as covert participatory observation. SPM is attracting increasing interest for the investigation of community pharmacy practice; however, there is criticism that SPM can only show a small picture of everyday pharmacy practice and therefore has limited external validity. On the one hand, a certain design and application of the SPM goes hand in hand with an increase in external validity. Even if, on the other hand, this occurs at the expense of internal validity due to the trade-off situation, the justified criticism of the SPM for investigating community pharmacy practice can be countered.

将模拟病人方法作为社区药学实践的 "黄金标准":对批评的回应。
模拟病人法(SPM)被认为是隐蔽参与观察的 "黄金标准"。SPM 在调查社区药学实践方面正引起越来越多的兴趣;然而,也有批评认为 SPM 只能展示日常药学实践的一小部分,因此外部有效性有限。一方面,SPM 的特定设计和应用与外部有效性的提高是相辅相成的。另一方面,即使由于权衡利弊而牺牲了内部有效性,也可以反驳对 SPM 调查社区药学实践的合理批评。
