Drama-based simulations in first aid education: psychometric validation of a student assessment tool in school settings
The validated Greek version of the SPRS-S constitutes a psychometrically robust instrument for evaluating simulated patient performance in school-based first aid education. Its application supports structured feedback processes and strengthens the pedagogical use of role-playing simulations. The findings support the systematic evaluation of drama-based health education and extend assessment practices to school-aged populations.
