Evaluating Changes In Clinical Decision-Making In Physical Therapy Students After Participating In Simulation,
2018
College of Health and Education, Husson University, 1 College Circle, Bangor, ME 04401, USA
Evaluating Changes In Clinical Decision-Making In Physical Therapy Students After Participating In Simulation, Kelly Macauley
Health Professions Education
Purpose: Physical therapy students are not consistently prepared to practice in the dynamic healthcare environment immediately after graduation. Implementing other teaching modalities may help to better prepare physical therapy graduates. Medical and nursing student education have effectively used simulation to help prepare students for clinical practice. The purpose of the quasiexperimental design study was to assess the effect of simulation on clinical decision-making (CDM) in Doctor of Physical students in a physical therapy program.
Methods: One-hundred and twenty-two students in two class years participated in the study, with 71 partaking in a simulation activity and 51 students serving as the …
A Pragmatic Approach To Statistical Testing And Estimation (Paste),

A Pragmatic Approach To Statistical Testing And Estimation (Paste), Jimmie Leppink
Health Professions Education
The p-value has dominated research in education and related fields and a statistically non-significant p-value is quite commonly interpreted as ‘confirming’ the null hypothesis (H0) of ‘equivalence’. This is unfortunate, because p-values are not fit for that purpose. This paper discusses three alternatives to the traditional p-value that unfortunately have remained underused but can provide evidence in favor of ‘equivalence’ relative to ‘non-equivalence’: two one-sided tests (TOST) equivalence testing, Bayesian hypothesis testing, and information criteria. TOST equivalence testing and p-values both rely on concepts of statistical significance testing and can both be done with confidence intervals, but treat H0 and …

Health Professions Education
Background: From its beginnings in 1827, an important goal of medical education in Egypt has been to qualify physicians who can provide high-quality health care services for their local community and other communities in the Middle East region. Objective and method: To describe the historical background, current status, and future challenges of medical education in Egypt, the authors conducted an extensive internet search, and made electronic communications as well as site visits to gather relevant data. In the final phase, the authors organized and interpreted their data with emphasis on the historical background, features of the curricula, practices of quality, …

Emergency Medical Services Core Competencies: A Scoping Review, Talal Alshammari, Paul A. Jennings, Brett Williams
Health Professions Education
Introduction: the emergency medical services (EMS) are an important part of the health care system as they are the first point of contact for medical emergencies. Moreover, the EMS educational system has seen a rapid transition from a post-employment training model into a pre-employment educational model. Despite this, there is a lack of clarity on what core competencies EMS students are expected to hold.
Purpose: the objective of this scoping review was to identify the EMS student core competencies in the literature. Method: the scoping review considered journal articles and grey literature (peer-reviewed and non-peer reviewed) and the following databases …

Standard Setting In Medical Education: Which Cut-Off Cuts It?, Jerome I. Rotgans, Nigel C.K. Tan
Health Professions Education
Standard setting of exams is an important element of medical education. This is understandably so: it is difficult to qualify for medical school in the first place and once there, most assessments are high-stakes and failure rates need to be justified. As a consequence, numerous procedures have been established to determine cut-off values for exams. A cut-off value is the score of an assessment that determines who passes the exam and who does not. The cut-off in turn determines the failure rate, which is the percentage of students below the cut-off value who fail the exam.

A Recognition Study Testing The Psychological Validity And Development Of Illness Scripts, Eugène J.F.M. Custers
Health Professions Education
Purpose: This study investigates whether the recognition memory phenomena previously found for script-based stories also apply to illness scripts, the hypothesized mental structures expert physicians apply in medical diagnosis. In addition, the development of these scripts is investigated.
Method: Second and sixth year students and experienced family physicians participated; the influence of typicality of information (prototypical versus atypical statements), textual presence (verbatim or implicit), and delay (15 min or 1 week) on recognition memory discrimination was investigated in a 3×2×2 ANOVA design and on recognition reaction times (RTs) in a 3×2×2×2 ANOVA design. Results: The expected developmental differences could not …

The Effect Of Performance Standards And Medical Experience On Diagnostic Calibration Accuracy, Marloes L. Nederhand, Huib K. Tabbers, Ted A.W. Splinter, Remy M.J.P. Rikers
Health Professions Education
Purpose: Medical doctors do not always calibrate accurately in terms of their diagnostic performance, which means that their evaluation of their diagnosis differs from their actual performance. Inaccurate calibration can lead to maltreatment and increased health care costs. This study was conducted to investigate whether calibration accuracy can be improved among both board certified medical specialists and medical students by providing them with a simple form of feedback (i.e., performance standards). We expected that performance standards would enhance calibration accuracy. Furthermore, we expected that medical specialists would overall be better calibrated than medical students
Methods: Medical specialists (n¼42) and medical …
