Summary
Video recording objective structured clinical exams (OSCEs) for appeals is not supported by current literature or UK medical institutions. Concerns exist regarding comparability of marks and feasibility of managing video review processes.
Area of Science:
- Medical Education
- Assessment in Healthcare
Background:
- Candidates often dispute scores in objective structured clinical exams (OSCEs).
- Requests for video recording of OSCEs arise for academic appeals.
- Institutions need to verify comparability of recorded vs. live OSCE marking and technical feasibility.
Purpose of the Study:
- To explore the use of video recording for OSCEs.
- To investigate the comparability of marks from video marking versus live marking.
- To assess the logistical and technical challenges of video recording OSCEs.
Main Methods:
- A mixed-methods approach was employed.
- An initial literature review was conducted.
- Surveys and interviews were administered to assessment leads at UK medical and postgraduate institutions.
Main Results:
- Literature shows inconsistent findings on mark comparability, with video marking potentially yielding lower scores.
- Most UK institutions do not currently video OSCEs or plan to.
- Significant logistical, technical, and assessor-related drawbacks to video review were identified.
Conclusions:
- Video recording OSCEs for appeals presents challenges beyond logistics and technical issues.
- Current literature and UK medical institutions do not support the use of video recording for OSCE appeals.
- Feasible management of video review processes remains a significant concern.

01:31Student t Distribution
13.6K
The population standard deviation is rarely known in many day-to-day examples of statistics. When the sample sizes are large, it is easy to estimate the population standard deviation using a confidence interval, which provides results close enough to the original value. However, statisticians ran into problems when the sample size was small. A small sample size caused inaccuracies in the confidence interval.

1.6K
Student's t-test in Microsoft Excel is a statistical method used to compare the means of two groups to determine if they are significantly different from each other. It's commonly used to evaluate hypotheses, such as testing whether a treatment has an effect compared to a control group. Excel provides built-in functions to perform t-tests, making it accessible for users needing to conduct basic statistical analysis.

5.1K
The t-test is a statistical method used to compare the sample mean with a population mean or compare two means from two data sets. The test statistic is calculated from the standard deviation, mean, and number of measurements in the data set at a selected confidence interval and then compared to a table of critical values at this confidence level. If the test statistic is smaller than the critical value, the null hypothesis is accepted. In this case, we state that the difference between the...

In parametric statistics, two fundamental tests stand out for their utility and wide application: the Student's t-test and goodness-of-fit tests. These tests provide researchers with a robust method for drawing insights from data, testing hypotheses, and making informed decisions based on their findings.

Capsule endoscopy, or wireless or video capsule endoscopy, is a diagnostic procedure for examining the entire gastrointestinal tract. Patients swallow a capsule about the size of a vitamin tablet. The capsule is equipped with a transmitter, a battery, an LED light source, and a color video camera to capture images throughout the gastrointestinal tract. This procedure is particularly useful for diagnosing conditions such as Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, tumors, polyps, ulcers,...

What do you think is the single most influential factor in determining with whom you become friends and whom you form romantic relationships? You might be surprised to learn that the answer is simple: the people with whom you have the most contact. This most important factor is proximity. You are more likely to be friends with people you have regular contact with. For example, there are decades of research that shows that you are more likely to become friends with people who live in your dorm,...
