Understanding contexts and mechanisms through which video based benchmarking promotes alignment of examiners’ scoring in objective structured clinical exams Open
Aligning examiners judgements to a shared standard is desirable within Objective Structured Clinical Exams (OSCEs) because it accords with OSCEs’ epistemic assumptions and purpose. Video-based benchmarking (VBB) involves examiners scoring …

Investigating the accuracy of adjusting for examiner differences in multi-centre Objective Structured Clinical Exams (OSCEs). A simulation study of Video-based Examiner Score Comparison and Adjustment (VESCA) Open
Introduction: Ensuring examiner equivalence across distributed assessment locations is a priority within distributed Objective Structured Clinical Exams (OSCEs) but is challenging as examiners are typically fully nested within locations (i…

Using video-based examiner score comparison and adjustment (VESCA) to compare the influence of examiners at different sites in a distributed objective structured clinical exam (OSCE) Open
Purpose Ensuring equivalence of examiners’ judgements within distributed objective structured clinical exams (OSCEs) is key to both fairness and validity but is hampered by lack of cross-over in the performances which different groups of e…

Enhancing authenticity, diagnosticity and<i>e</i>quivalence (AD-Equiv) in multicentre OSCE exams in health professionals education: protocol for a complex intervention study Open
Introduction Objective structured clinical exams (OSCEs) are a cornerstone of assessing the competence of trainee healthcare professionals, but have been criticised for (1) lacking authenticity, (2) variability in examiners’ judgements whi…

Technology enhanced assessment: Ottawa consensus statement and recommendations Open
The group identified areas of consensus that remained to be resolved and issues that arose in the evolution of TEA. We adopted a three-stage approach (readiness to adopt technology, application of assessment technology, and evaluation/diss…

Determining influence, interaction and causality of contrast and sequence effects in objective structured clinical exams Open
Introduction Differential rater function over time (DRIFT) and contrast effects (examiners' scores biased away from the standard of preceding performances) both challenge the fairness of scoring in objective structured clinical exams (OSCE…

Understanding patient involvement in judging students’ communication skills in OSCEs Open
Integrating patients into communications skills assessments could help to highlight deficiencies in students' communication which medically-enculturated examiners may miss. Overcoming the challenges inherent to this is likely to enhance gr…

Measuring the Effect of Examiner Variability in a Multiple-Circuit Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) Open
Purpose Ensuring that examiners in different parallel circuits of objective structured clinical examinations (OSCEs) judge to the same standard is critical to the chain of validity. Recent work suggests examiner-cohort (i.e., the particula…

The influence of candidates’ physical attributes on assessors’ ratings in clinical practice Open
The presence of tattoos, purple hair, or a regional accent did not systematically negatively influence the grade or score awarded by assessors to candidates in observed clinical examination scenarios.

Understanding and developing procedures for video-based assessment in medical education Open
Successful use of video-based assessment relies on balancing the need to ensure station-specific information adequacy; avoiding disruptive intrusion; and the degree of justification provided by video's educational purpose. Video has the po…

Comparing the influence of ‘describing findings to the examiner’ or ‘examining as in usual practice’ on the students’ performance and assessors’ judgements during physical examination skills assessment Open
This article was migrated. The article was marked as recommended. Background: Within assessment of physical examination skills, two approaches are common: "Describing Findings" (students comment throughout); and examining as "Usual Practic…

A vaccine based on recombinant modified Vaccinia Ankara containing the nucleoprotein from Lassa virus protects against disease progression in a guinea pig model Open
Lassa fever remains the most imported viral haemorrhagic fever in Europe and is responsible for 5000 deaths per year throughout Western Africa. There is no vaccine and treatment is often ineffective. We have developed a vaccine based on mo…

Developing a video‐based method to compare and adjust examiner effects in fully nested OSCEs Open
Background Although averaging across multiple examiners’ judgements reduces unwanted overall score variability in objective structured clinical examinations ( OSCE ), designs involving several parallel circuits of the OSCE require that dif…
