Summary
Implementing evidence-based teaching strategies in morning report (MR) improved resident participation and preparedness. Creating a psychologically safe learning environment is key to enhancing medical education and resident confidence.
Area of Science:
- Medical Education Research
- Cognitive Psychology in Learning
- Curriculum Development
Background:
- Traditional morning report (MR) can be perceived as psychologically unsafe by learners due to evaluation fears.
- Literature on promoting psychological safety in MR settings is limited despite recognized challenges.
Purpose of the Study:
- To create an enhanced morning report (MR) format using evidence-based teaching strategies.
- To foster a safe learning environment within the MR setting.
Main Methods:
- Utilized Kern's six-step curriculum development model.
- Implemented a pilot trial with 35 pediatric residents over two years.
- Focused on attitudinal data measured by Likert scale.
Main Results:
- Over 50% of residents showed increased participation by the second year.
- Residents reported enhanced retrieval practice and improved preparedness for examinations.
- Positive attitudinal shifts were observed as the curriculum progressed.
Conclusions:
- Evidence-based teaching strategies rooted in cognitive psychology enhance educational quality.
- Psychological safety is fundamental for effective learning, enabling residents to feel secure in making mistakes.
- This reframed MR model offers a scalable approach for institutions seeking to improve their educational series.

Lazarus's Cognitive Appraisal Theory
287
Cognitive psychologist Richard Lazarus proposed the cognitive-mediational theory of emotions, which emphasizes how individuals' assessments of stressors significantly affect their experience of stress. According to Lazarus, the stress response is determined by a two-step appraisal process: primary appraisal and secondary appraisal. These cognitive appraisals help individuals evaluate the potential impact of a stressor and determine the adequacy of their coping resources.
