It is a chart that contains information about:
the topics of your specialty
the level you want each topic to be taught , i.e. whether you want a particular topic to be assessed at C1, C2 or C3
the total of these topics along with this total expressed in percentage. (Note: the level at which you assess should be similar to the level at which something is taught).
Education is the process of facilitating learning, or the acquisition of knowledge, skills, values, morals, beliefs, and habits. Educational methods include teaching, training, storytelling, discussion and directed research.
ABSTRACT- Accident injuries are most common cause of death in children over the age of one. Every year millions of children are permanently disable or disfigured because of accident. The largest number of accident happen in the living or dining room but the most serious accident happens in the kitchen and on the stair. Major home accidents are attributed to careless of parents and poor maintenance. The unintentional injuries in the home result from falls, burns, poisoning, accidental shooting and suffocation and sharp knives. Objective of study assess the knowledge of mother on their practices regarding prevention of home accidents among toddler with demographic variables. Demographic variable showed 45.6% mother wear in the age group of 26-30 years, 62.2% of them belongs to Hindu religion, 55.6% belongs to joint family, 82.2% had only one toddler in family, 82.2% were housewives, 75.6% were living in pukka house, 55.6% got knowledge about prevention of home accident through mass media. E.g. T.V, and radio.

Evaluating the quality of quality improvement training in healthcareDaniel McLinden
Quality Improvement (QI)in healthcare is an increasingly important approach to improving health outcomes, improving system performance and improving safety for patients. Effectively implementing QI methods requires knowledge of methods for the design and execution of QI projects. Given that this capability is not yet widespread in healthcare, training programs have emerged to develop these skills in the healthcare workforce. In spite of the growth of training programs, limited evidence exists about the merit and worth of these programs. We report here on a multi-year, multi-method evaluation of a QI training program at a large Midwestern academic medical center. Our methodology will demonstrate an approach to organizing a large scale training evaluation. Our results will provide best available evidence for features of the intervention, outcomes and the contextual features that enhance or limit efficacy.
The mission statement sets the direction and priority for developing and implementing the quality plan. It clearly states the nature of the organization’s commitment to quality and should then be tied to the organizational operations through programs, projects, actions and rewards/recognition.
On April 15, 2015, Professor Deb Rooney presented about validity in the current framework used to evaluate evidence and how we gather /evaluate validity evidence from a simulator and it’s associated measures. Her talk was part monthly brown bag series hosted by the University of Michigan Medical School Clinical Simulation Center.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Honest Reviews of Tim Han LMA Course Program.pptxtimhan337
Personal development courses are widely available today, with each one promising life-changing outcomes. Tim Han’s Life Mastery Achievers (LMA) Course has drawn a lot of interest. In addition to offering my frank assessment of Success Insider’s LMA Course, this piece examines the course’s effects via a variety of Tim Han LMA course reviews and Success Insider comments.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
1. Psychometrics for Clinical Skills
Assessment
Serkan Toy, PhD

2. Outline
• What is psychometrics?
– Measurement
– Construct development
• Reliability
• Validity
• A few other issues to consider
– Checklists vs. Global ratings
3. Psychometrics
• Educational & Psychological
Measurement
– measurement of knowledge, abilities,
attitudes, and personality traits
– mainly concerned with the construction and
validation of measurement instruments (i.e.
cognitive tests, surveys/questionnaires, and
personality assessments.)
4. Measurement
• Assigning numerals to observations based on
some pre-defined criteria
• Or assigning a value to one object/observation
in relation to another
– Intelligence - IQ
– Personality - Big Five
– Academic or procedural performance
7. Construct
Well-defined vs. Ill-defined
What do we already know about the construct in
question?
• Epistemological Beliefs
• Self efficacy
• Academic Performance
• Procedural Competency
10. Reliability
“The more consistent the scores are over
different raters and occasions, the more reliable
the assessment is thought to be” (Moskal & Leydens,
2000 as cited in Jonsson & Svingby, 2007)
• Test re-rest
• Inter-rater
• Binary vs. Likert scale
• Rubrics and calibration process
Jonsson, A. & Svingby, G. (2007). The use of scoring rubrics: Reliability, validity and educational
consequences. Educational Research Review, 2, 130-144.
11. Rubrics for Assessment
• “An assessment tool that describes levels of
performance on a particular task” (Jonsson & Svingby,
2007)
• Analytic, topic-specific rubrics seem to enhance reliable
scoring of performance especially when accompanied by
examples and/or rater training
• Example:
– Objective assessment of surgical competence in
gynaecological laparoscopy: development and validation of
a procedure-specific rating scale Larsen et al. (2008)
Jonsson, A. & Svingby, G. (2007). The use of scoring rubrics: Reliability, validity and educational
consequences. Educational Research Review, 2, 130-144.

14. Conceptual Change in Validity
“Validity is not a property of the test or
assessment as such, but rather of the
meaning of the test scores. These scores
are a function not only of the items or
stimulus conditions, but also of the persons
responding as well as the context of the
assessment. In particular, what needs to be
valid is the meaning or interpretation of the
score; as well as any implications for action
that this meaning entails” (p. 741).
Messick, S. (1995) Validity of psychological assessment: validation of inferences from
persons’ responses and performance as scientific inquiry into score meaning. American
Psychologist, 50, 741–9.
15. Validity
• Construct Validity
– Content / Face
– Convergent
– Discriminant
– Predictive
The question is: What can we validly conclude
about a trainee who receives a score of “X”
vs. that of receiving “Y”?
16. Construct Validity
• In competency assessment instruments validity
is usually established by examining whether
they distinguish between groups logically
presumed to differ on competency being
measured
– Experienced practitioners vs. trainees or
– Peer nominated superior performers vs. average
performers
Scofield, M. E., & Yoxtheimer, L. Y. (1983). Psychometric issues in the
assessment of clinical competencies. Journal of Counseling Psychology.
30, 413-420.
17. Other Issues to Consider
• Global ratings vs. Checklist scores
• Required sample size for validity testing
• Training the trainees
• Scoring the videotaped performances
– Individual procedural vs. qualitative skills
– Team performance
• Formative and summative assessment at the
same time
– Training (intervention) or assessment
(measurement)?
18. Global ratings vs. Checklist scores
• High correlation between global ratings
and checklist scores
• Both seem to differentiate similarly
between more experienced trainees and
novices
Examples
• Kim J., Neilipovitz D., Cardinal P., Chiu M. (2009) A comparison of global rating scale
and checklist scores in the validation of an evaluation tool to assess performance in
the resuscitation of critically ill patients during simulated emergencies (abbreviated as
‘‘CRM simulator study IB’’). Simulation in Healthcare, 4, 6–16.
• Morgan P.J., Cleave-Hogg D., Guest C.B. (2001) A comparison of global ratings and
checklist scores from an undergraduate assessment using an anesthesia simulator.
Academic Medicine, 76, 1053–5.
19. A Comparison of Global Rating Scale and Checklist Scores in the
Validation of an Evaluation Tool to Assess Performance in the
Resuscitation of Critically Ill Patients During Simulated Emergencies
(Abbreviated as "CRM Simulator Study IB")
Kim, John MD, MEd, FRCPC; Neilipovitz, David MD, FRCPC; Cardinal, Pierre MD, FRCPC; Chiu, Michelle MD,
FRCPC
• 32 PGY-1 & 28 PGY-3 2 simulation scenarios on Crisis Resource
Management (CRM)
• Ottawa Global Rating Scale 7-point anchored ordinal scale – 5 CRM
categories and overall performance score
• Ottawa CRM Checklist 12 item in 5 CRM categories- max 30 points
• 3 raters blinded to year of training rated each videotaped
performance (no order specified for use of evaluation tools)
20. Kim et al. 2009 - Continued
Reliability: Inter-rater reliability Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC)
• Ottawa GRS: S1=0.59 & S2=0.61
– Subcategories showed similar ICC except “resource utilization &
communication (range 0.24 to 0.38)
• Cumulative CRM checklist: S1=0.63 & S2=0.55
– Again subcategories showed similar ICC except “resource utilization &
communication (again range 0.24 to 0.38)
Validity:
• Content validation (face validity) Delphi process
• Response process Resident orientation & rater training
• Comparison of scores by PGY T test (ANOVA)
– Both the checklist and GRS overall & subcategory scores showed
statistically significant differences between PGY-1 and PGY-3 (more
experienced residents receiving higher scores)
– ANOVA showed similar results by each scenario as well as per rater
21. A Comparison of Global Ratings and Checklist Scores from an
Undergraduate Assessment Using an Anesthesia Simulator
Morgan, Pamela J. MD; Cleave-Hogg, Doreen PhD; Guest, Cameron B. MD, MEd
• 140 final year medical students 15-minute faculty-facilitated sim
scenario
– Conducted in 2nd
week of the 2-week anesthesia rotation
– Faculty followed a script and each session was videotaped
– Each student completed 1 of 6 scenarios (each with similar learning
objectives)
• 25-point criterion checklist for each scenario (not performed=0;
performed=1)
• 5-point global rating (clear failure=1 to superior performance=5)
• 10 faculty attended a workshop on performance protocols
– Randomly assigned to a rating pair to evaluate 25 to 34 videotaped
performances
22. Morgan et al. 2001 - Continued
• Correlation between checklist scores and global ratings Pearson
r = 0.74
• Global ratings correlated more highly with technical skills and
judgment than with knowledge
– Knowledge r = 0.24
– Technical skills r =0.51
– Judgment r =0.53
• Single-rater reliability (consistency)
– Mean ICC for Checklist scores 0.77 (range 0.58 to 0.93)
– Mean ICC for Global ratings 0.62 (range 0.40 to 0.77)
23. Other Issues to Consider
• Required sample size for validity testing
• Training the trainees
• Scoring the videotaped performances
– Individual procedural vs. qualitative skills
– Team performance
• Formative and summative assessment at the same time
– Training (intervention) or assessment (measurement)?
• Assessment tools to link simulated performance to actual
patient outcomes
