Validity Evidence and Psychometric Evaluation of a Socially Accountable Health Index for Health Professions Schools
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Cassandra Barber; Cees van der Vleuten; Saad Chahine – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2024
There is an expectation that health professions schools respond to priority societal health needs. This expectation is largely based on the underlying assumption that schools are aware of the priority needs in their communities. This paper demonstrates how open-access, pan-national health data can be used to create a reliable health index to…

How Biased Are You? The Effect of Prior Performance Information on Attending Physician Ratings and Implications for Learner Handover
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Shaw, Tammy; Wood, Timothy J.; Touchie, Claire; Pugh, Debra; Humphrey-Murto, Susan M. – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2021
Learner handover (LH), the process of sharing of information about learners between faculty supervisors, allows for longitudinal assessment fundamental in the competency-based education model. However, the potential to bias future assessments has been raised as a concern. The purpose of this study is to determine whether prior performance…

Augmenting Physician Examiner Scoring in Objective Structured Clinical Examinations: Including the Standardized Patient Perspective
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Roy, Marguerite; Wojcik, Josée; Bartman, Ilona; Smee, Sydney – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2021
In Canada, high stakes objective structured clinical examinations (OSCEs) administered by the Medical Council of Canada have relied exclusively on physician examiners (PEs) for scoring. Prior research has looked at using SPs to replace PEs. This paper reports on two studies that implement and evaluate a standardized patient (SP) scoring tool to…

Grad, Roland; Leger, Daniel; Kaczorowski, Janusz; Schuster, Tibor; Adler, Samara; Aman, Marya; Archibald, Douglas; Beaulieu, Marie-Claude; Chmelicek, John; Cornelissen, Evelyn; Delleman, Bethany; Hadj-Mimoune, Sonia; Horvey, Samantha; Macaluso, Steven; Mintsioulis, Stephen; Murdoch, Stuart; Ng, Brian; Papineau, Alain; Rangwala, Sohil; Rousseau, Mathieu; Rudkin, Teresa; Schabort, Inge; Schultz, Karen; Snow, Pamela; Wong, Eric; Wu, Pearson; Brailovsky, Carlos – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2021
Spaced education is a learning strategy to improve knowledge acquisition and retention. To date, no robust evidence exists to support the utility of spaced education in the Family Medicine residency. We aimed to test whether alerts to encourage spaced education can improve clinical knowledge as measured by scores on the Canadian Family Medicine…

Optimizing Self-Regulation of Performance: Is Mental Effort a Cue?
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Blissett, Sarah; Sibbald, Matthew; Kok, Ellen; van Merrienboer, Jeroen – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2018
Accurate self-regulation of performance is important for trainees. Trainees rely on cues to make monitoring judgments to self-regulate their performance. Ideally, cues and monitoring judgements accurately reflect performance, as measured by cue diagnosticity (the ability of a cue to predict performance) and monitoring accuracy (the ability of a…
