Abstract: Objective To construct a framework of non-professional competency residents in China. Methods The questionnaire of expert consultation was designed through literature retrieve, content analysis and interview. Then, Delphi method and precedence chart method were used to conduct 2 rounds of expert consultation to 19 experts to evaluate the concept and connotation of non-professional clinical competency of residents, as well as the composition, definition and weight of each dimension. Results The recovery of questionnaires of 2 rounds was 95.0%(19/20)and 100.0%(19/19)respectively,the expert authority coefficient was 0.89,and the expert opinion was unanimous after Kendall's W test. The competency framework was finally constructed based on experts' opinions and discussion concerned, which included six dimensions, namely humanistic care, communication, teamwork, critical thinking, self-directed learning and information collection. Conclusions The concept and connotation of the framework were well identified. The competency framework included six dimensions, each dimension was clearly described and easy to operate, so it can be used for development of assessment tool for non-professional clinical competency.
