CHSOS CERTIFICATION EXAMINATION
TEST 2026 COMPLETE QUESTIONS AND
FULL SOLUTION SET
⩥ CHSOS. Answer: Certified Healthcare Simulation Operations
Specialist
⩥ CHSOS program. Answer: A term used throughout various documents
and resources of the CHSOS certification. It is a general term used to
encompass any and all activities related to the application, verification,
certification granting, administrative, and other functions performed in
the certification program.
⩥ COPD. Answer: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
⩥ Clinical scenario (simulated scenario). Answer: A plan of an expected
and potential course of events for a simulated clinical experience.
⩥ Computer-based simulation. Answer: Simulation activities that are
performed via a computer program. These are similar to virtual reality
simulations, but do not include additional interfaces between the learner
and the computer.
, ⩥ Confederate. Answer: An individual other than the patient who is
scripted in a simulation to provide realism, additional challenges, or
additional information for the learner.
⩥ Construct validity. Answer: the degree to which a test measures what
it claims, or purports, to be measuring
⩥ Content validity. Answer: The extent to which a measure represents
all facets of a given social construct. It requires the use of recognized
subject matter experts to evaluate whether test items assess defined
content and more rigorous statistical tests than does the assessment of
face validity.
⩥ Core standards. Answer: The fundamental simulation education
standards that have been developed by the Society for Simulation in
Healthcare Certification Committee as a cooperative effort with input
from other simulation societies and groups.
⩥ Critical thinking. Answer: A disciplined process that requires
validation of data, including any assumptions that may influence
thoughts and actions, and then careful reflection on the entire process
while evaluating the effectiveness of what has been determined as the
necessary actions to take. The process entails purposeful, goal-directed
thinking and is based on scientific principles and methods (evidence)
rather than assumptions and conjecture.
