Timeline

• Jan. and Feb 2014 : test’s construction

• March 2014 : evaluation of test’s interest by students from

others universities

• May 2014 : Pilot study with French participants

• Mid 2014 : Final study with Canadian participants

• Data analysis, article redaction and submission

• Is a Pre-Test necessary ?

• How many topics should be covered?

– One topic = 60 min PPT vs 2 topics = 120 min !

• Simulation training ?

– One scenario (1 hr) vs. two short (30 min) scenarios ?

– If 2 scenarios: repeat scenario or 2 different scenarios

• Should scientific resources be given to participants ? Both

groups? At what time?

1. Short clinical scenario

Always incorporate uncertainty. Several options are relevant to

solve the diagnostic or management problem posed by the situation.

2. Questions in three parts1. "if you were thinking of" contains a relevant diagnostic or

management option2. "and then you were to find" presents a new clinical finding,

such as a physical sign, a pre-existing condition, an imaging study or a laboratory test result.

3. "this option would become" is a five-point Likert scale that

captures examinees' decisions.

Data interpretation

1. Short clinical scenario

Patient presentation, history and physical examination

2. Questions

1. What do you think is the most likely diagnosis in this patient?

2. List the features of the case which you consider support your diagnosis and also those which oppose it, giving an appropriate

sign [positive (+) or negative (-)] and weighting to each.

3. If this diagnosis proved incorrect, what would your next choice be?

4. List the features of the case which you consider support your diagnosis and also those which oppose it, giving an appropriate

sign [positive (+) or negative (-)] and weighting to each.
