Abstract Purpose The United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) comprises a series of assessments required for the licensure U.S. MD-trained graduates as well those who are trained internationally. Demonstration relationship between these examinations and outcomes care is desirable process seeking to provide patients with safe effective health care. Method This was retrospective cohort study 196,881 hospitalizations in Pennsylvania over 3-year period (January 1, 2017 December 31,...
Abstract Recent developments in the use of large‐language models have led to substantial improvements accuracy content‐based automated scoring free‐text responses. The reported levels suggest that systems could widespread applicability assessment. However, before they are used operational testing, other aspects their performance warrant examination. In this study, we explore potential for examinees inflate scores by gaming ACTA system. We a range strategies including responding with words...
To compare how different institutional review boards (IRBs) process and evaluate the same multiinstitutional educational research proposal of medical students' quality life.Prospective collection in 2005 key variables regarding IRB submission involving students, which was submitted to six IRBs, each associated with a school.Four IRBs determined protocol appropriate for expedited review, remaining two required full review. Substantial variation existed time by an administrator/IRB member...

Students estimated cumulative 22 skills reported self-confidence perceived importance using a five-point Likert-type scale.The response rate was 79% (96/122). A majority never having performed...
To investigate whether a spaced-education (SE) game can be an effective means of teaching core content to medical students and reliable valid method assessing their knowledge.This nine-month trial (2008-2009) enrolled from three U.S. schools. The SE consisted 100 validated multiple-choice questions-explanations in preclinical/clinical domains. Students were e-mailed two questions daily. Adaptive mechanics re-sent or six weeks if answered, respectively, incorrectly correctly. Questions...

In Brief Context: Many encourage service learning and health advocacy training in medical student education, but related evaluation is limited. Objectives: To assess (1) impact of a required community for students on attitudes, knowledge, skills; (2) characteristics associated with higher knowledge (3) perspectives community-based organizations (CBOs). Design: Cross-sectional surveys. Setting: University Miami Miller School Medicine (UMMSM) Regional Medical Campus main campus. Participants:...
The aim of the study is to report creation a flipped ophthalmology course and preclinical medical student perceptions knowledge gains before after course.
Despite published literature demonstrating deficiencies in chest radiograph (CXR)/basic radiology interpretation skills of 4th-year medical students, studies and subsequent curricula regarding the training needed to obtain these are lacking. Terms such as clinical exposure teaching have been used describe experience for basic interpretive skills, but best practice methods delivery, let alone common methods, yet be defined.The objective is current assessing CXR/basic across institutions on...
Background: The psychometric properties of evaluations at academic meetings have not been well studied. Purpose: To explore the ceiling effect in evaluation quality a professional meeting and whether change scale labels would decrease effect. Methods: Cross-sectional study two national (2009-2010), attendees completed on paper forms or online (5-point Likert scale). Results: Of 1,064 evaluations, mean session ratings was higher among respondents to version 2009 (4.2; 95% confidence interval...
The flipped classroom module incorporates independent study in advance of in-class instructional sessions. It is unproven whether this methodology effective within a medical school second-year organ system module.
