Confirmation Biases01:31

Confirmation Biases

5.5K
The confirmation bias is the tendency to focus on information that confirms our existing beliefs and ignore information that is inconsistent with our expectations. For example, if you think that your professor is not very nice, you notice all of the instances of rude behavior exhibited by the professor while ignoring the countless pleasant interactions he is involved in on a daily basis. Have you ever fallen prey to the confirmation bias, either as the source or target of such bias?

Surveys

Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.

Archival Research

Some researchers gain access to large amounts of data without interacting with a single research participant. Instead, they use existing records to answer various research questions. This type of research approach is known as archival research. Archival research relies on looking at past records or data sets to look for interesting patterns or relationships. For example, a researcher might access the academic records of all individuals who enrolled in college within the past ten years and...

Cross-Sectional Research

In cross-sectional research, a researcher compares multiple segments of the population at the same time. If they were interested in people's dietary habits, the researcher might directly compare different groups of people by age. Instead of following a group of people for 20 years to see how their dietary habits changed from decade to decade, the researcher would study a group of 20-year-old individuals and compare them to a group of 30-year-old individuals and a group of 40-year-old...

Summary

Virtual interviews for emergency medicine residency led to fewer overall cancellations but more last-minute cancellations. This shift impacts recruitment strategies and applicant behavior.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Residency Programs
  • Emergency Medicine

Background:

  • The COVID-19 pandemic necessitated a shift to virtual interviews for residency programs.
  • This transition raised questions about applicant cancellation timeliness and patterns.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze changes in applicant cancellation rates and timeliness following the adoption of virtual interviews for emergency medicine residency selection.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective cohort study analyzing interview data from an emergency medicine residency program.
  • Comparison of interview scheduling patterns between one in-person and two virtual interview seasons (2019-2022).
  • Evaluation of overall cancellation rates and proportion of cancellations within 7 or 14 days of the interview date.

Main Results:

  • Overall cancellation rates were significantly lower for virtual interviews (10.5-12.4%) compared to in-person interviews (31.3%).
  • The proportion of cancellations occurring within 14 days significantly increased with virtual interviews (55.5-80%) compared to in-person (20%).
  • Cancellations within 7 days also increased during virtual interview seasons (13.6-26.7%) versus in-person (0%).

Conclusions:

  • Transitioning to virtual interviews correlated with a decrease in overall interview cancellations.
  • A higher proportion of cancellations occurred closer to the interview date during virtual seasons.
  • Further research is needed to understand the impact of these cancellation patterns on emergency medicine recruitment.
