Abstract	Driven by the need to understand placement quality indicators in action, the Clinical Placement Quality Survey--Student (CPQS-S) is a psychometrically robust survey designed to evaluate allied health students' perception of placement. The CPQS-S was developed and validity established through the consensus of an interprofessional expert panel (n = 9). To determine test-retest reliability and internal consistency, students (n = 39) completed the CPQS-S twice. Construct validity was then determined by factor analysis (n = 719). The factor analysis identified four discrete themes relating to the students' perception of what constitutes a quality clinical placement experience, furthermore, these quality indicators demonstrated excellent test-retest reliability. The CPQS-S is a valid and reliable tool for evaluating allied health students' perception of a quality clinical placement experience, underpinned by current best practice frameworks. The CPQS-S provides all stakeholders with an easily scalable and objective method for evaluating placement quality to engage in quality improvement processes. (As Provided).
