Research Assistant (Part Time)

You will work closely with the Principal Investigator (PI) and research study team members in the development and validation of a new psychometric instrument aimed at measuring multimorbidity within a primary healthcare setting. This instrument will be integral to facilitating better patient care and informing primary healthcare interventions and policies.

• Collaborate and assist in the design and development of a new robust psychometric instrument, or the validation of an existing one, for measuring multimorbidity.
• Collaborate with study investigators to define key constructs and dimensions of multimorbidity.
• Develop survey items and scales that accurately capture the localised complexities of multimorbidity in a primary healthcare setting, adapting from existing measures and methodologies.
• Perform pilot testing and statistical analyses to evaluate validity and reliability of the instrument(s).
• Present findings and recommendations to study team
• Provide training and support to study team members on the use of the psychometric instrument(s).

Requirements

• Master’s/PhD in social sciences, statistics, or a related field
• Proficient in statistical software (SPSS/R/STATA/NVivo)
• Knowledge of psychometric measurement theories (e.g. ITT/CTT) and research methodologies
• Expertise in quantitative and qualitative data analysis, including the use of advanced statistical techniques.
• Ability to present complex data and findings clearly.
• Experience in healthcare-related research projects is highly desirable.
