The Spectrum of Involvement describes six levels active patient involvement in healthcare education. Only at the highest are patients described as 'equal partners'. Although this framework was never intended to be hierarchical, educators continue strive towards aspirations for involving partners' However, we do not know what these partnerships mean all stakeholders and how they can achieved practice. This study explores key stakeholders' understandings experiences

Abstract Transitioning from student to doctor is notoriously challenging. Newly qualified doctors feel required make decisions before owning their new identity. It essential understand how responsibility relates identity formation improve transitions for and patients.

The "hidden curriculum" in medical school includes a stressful work environment, un-empathic role models, and prioritisation of biomedical knowledge. It can provoke anxiety cause students to adapt by becoming cynical, distanced less empathic. Lower empathy, turn, has been shown harm patients as well practitioners. Fortunately, evidence-based interventions counteract the empathy dampening effects hidden curriculum. These include early exposure real patients, providing with real-world...

Grades are commonly used in formative workplace-based assessment (WBA) medical education and training, but may draw attention away from feedback about the task. A dilemma arises because self-regulatory focus of a trainee must include self-awareness relative to agreed standards, which implies grading.In this study we aimed understand meaning students construct WBA with without grades, what influences this.Year 3 were invited take part randomised crossover each student served as his or her own...
