Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Adult Learning Theory
  • Metacognition

Background:

  • Accurate self-assessment of knowledge and skills is crucial for effective adult and lifelong learning.
  • Understanding metacognitive accuracy in professional training is essential for developing competent practitioners.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare self-evaluations made by interns with faculty evaluations of the same interns.
  • To investigate the accuracy of self-assessment in a medical internship context.

Main Methods:

  • A comparative study design was employed.
  • Interns' self-assessments of their knowledge and skills were collected.
  • Faculty evaluations of the same interns were obtained for comparison.

Main Results:

  • Analysis revealed discrepancies between intern self-evaluations and faculty assessments.
  • Specific patterns in over- or under-estimation by interns were identified.

Conclusions:

  • Interns' self-assessment accuracy may differ significantly from faculty judgments.
  • Findings highlight the importance of faculty-guided feedback in medical education to refine interns' metacognitive skills.
