To design an instrument for scoring residents learning pediatric disaster triage (PDT), and to test the validity and reliability of the instrument. ⋯ We report the validity and reliability testing of a PDT-scoring instrument. Validity was confirmed with no performance differential by PGY. Reliability of the scoring instrument for most patient-level triage, knowledge, and specific skills was high.
