Case Studies01:22

Case Studies

There are many research methods available to psychologists in their efforts to understand, describe, and explain behavior and the cognitive and biological processes that underlie it.
Metacognition01:26

Metacognition

Metacognition is a conscious process where individuals are aware of their cognitive and executive processes, such as planning before solving a problem or self-monitoring during reading. For instance, a writer may need help with composing a piece. The situation involves a writer who is working on a piece of writing, but while doing so, they realize that something is missing. They notice that their characters lack depth or details. This realization occurs because the writer is reflecting on their...
Hindsight Biases01:12

Hindsight Biases

Hindsight bias leads you to believe that the event you just experienced was predictable, even though it really wasn’t. In other words, you knew all along that things would turn out the way they did. Can you relate this to the phrase "Hindsight is 20/20" now?
Cognitive Learning01:21

Cognitive Learning

Cognitive learning is based on purposive behavior, incidental learning, and insight learning.
E. C. Tolman's theory of purposive behavior emphasizes that much behavior is goal-directed. He argued that to understand behavior, we must look at the entire sequence of actions leading to a goal. For instance, high school students study hard, not just due to past reinforcement but also to achieve the goal of getting into a good college.
Tolman introduced the idea that behavior is influenced by...

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching III: Evaluation and Documentation

Evaluation of the teaching process enables the nurse to determine if the patient's learning needs were met and if training was effective. If the expected outcomes are not met, the care plan is revised, and additional education or reinforcement is provided. Nurses can ask questions after the session or obtain feedback to assess the patient's understanding of the topic.
Nurses can use several methods to evaluate patient outcomes. For example, oral questions can assess cognitive learning, patient...

Nursing Process for Patient and Caregiver Teaching I: Assessment and Diagnosis

The nursing process provides a clinical decision-making framework for patients and families to establish and implement a personalized care plan. Since part of the nurse's duties is to teach patients, the steps of the nursing process are the most effective way to approach instruction. The nursing process and the teaching-learning process are inextricably linked.
It is critical to determine the patient's learning needs during the assessment. Determination of learning needs compounds data from the...

Published on: December 9, 2022

Area of Science:

  • Occupational therapy education
  • Medical education pedagogy

Background:

  • Problem-based learning (PBL) is increasingly adopted in occupational therapy curricula.
  • However, empirical evidence supporting its efficacy in achieving learning objectives remains limited.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the effectiveness of a specific PBL case in occupational therapy education.
  • To determine if the PBL case met faculty-defined learning objectives.

Main Methods:

  • A pretest-posttest design was employed to measure changes in student perceptions of knowledge acquisition.
  • A two-way repeated measures ANOVA was conducted to analyze the data.

Main Results:

  • A statistically significant difference was observed between pretest and posttest scores (p < 0.01).
  • Posttest scores were significantly higher than pretest scores, indicating perceived knowledge gains.

Conclusions:

  • Students perceived significant knowledge acquisition through the PBL case.
  • Problem-based learning is an effective pedagogical method for facilitating learning in occupational therapy education.
