Modeling in Therapy

269
Modeling, a key technique in therapy, uses observational learning to help clients acquire and practice new skills by watching therapists demonstrate desired behaviors. This approach, rooted in Albert Bandura's concept of vicarious learning, plays a significant role in therapeutic interventions for various psychological conditions, including social anxiety, ADHD, and depression.
Participant Modeling
Participant modeling involves therapists demonstrating calm and effective behaviors in...

Area of Science:

  • Health Professions Education
  • Medical Simulation
  • Pharmacy Practice

Background:

  • Virtual patients are increasingly used in healthcare education for safe, standardized experiential learning and assessment.
  • High-fidelity virtual patients, specifically interactive clinical avatars, have limited study within pharmacy education.
  • This study addresses the gap in understanding the utility of interactive clinical avatars for pharmacist training.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the design and review of three interactive clinical avatar simulations.
  • To evaluate these simulations as part of pharmacist preregistration training.

Main Methods:

  • A multistep design approach created avatars for emergency hormonal contraception, renal function calculation, and childhood illnesses.
  • Registered pharmacists validated content and face validity; trainees and newly qualified pharmacists reviewed usability and usefulness.
  • Feedback was collected via Likert scales and open-ended questions; data analyzed using descriptive statistics and content analysis.

Main Results:

  • The data collection questionnaire demonstrated high reliability (Cronbach alpha=.95).
  • All simulations were deemed usable and appropriate for preregistration training, with users reporting skill and knowledge development.
  • High-fidelity and relevance to practice were key factors in applying theory, though user-friendliness improvements were suggested.

Conclusions:

  • Interactive clinical avatar simulations were successfully designed and validated for pharmacy preregistration training.
  • These novel tools promote experiential learning, active engagement, and the development of transferable skills.
  • The design process and evaluation methods can guide the broader adoption of simulation tools in healthcare education.
