This study redeveloped a physician workplace-based assessment program using Kane's validity framework. The framework guided improvements in scoring, generalization, extrapolation, and implications for better physician practice evaluation.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Assessment and Evaluation

Background:

  • Workplace-based assessment (WBA) programs are increasingly used for practicing physicians.
  • Developing and evaluating these programs requires robust frameworks for validity evidence.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To redevelop a workplace-based assessment program for physicians using Kane's validity framework.
  • To systematically collect validity evidence to support the assessment's intended purpose.

Main Methods:

  • Applied Kane's four inferences (scoring, generalization, extrapolation, implications) to guide program redevelopment.
  • Incorporated specialty-specific criteria, standardized sampling, assessor training, real-world data, and external review.

Main Results:

  • Kane's framework provided a structured approach to redevelopment.

  • Validity evidence was systematically collected throughout the process.

    • Conclusions:

    • The redeveloped WBA program is supported by validity evidence.
    • Practical examples of framework application are crucial for advancing WBA program development and evaluation.
