Medical students can effectively use self-evaluation checklists in standardized patient (SP) exercises. This low-cost tool enhances teaching and evaluation without compromising accuracy, showing high agreement with SP assessments.

Area of Science:

Medical Education
Clinical Skills Assessment

Background:

Standardized patient (SP) exercises are resource-intensive.
Exploring cost-effective alternatives for medical training is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate the efficacy of self-evaluation by medical students in SP exercises.
To determine if self-assessment aligns with standardized patient assessments.

Main Methods:

Medical students completed self-evaluation checklists identical to those used by SPs.
Agreement was assessed between student and SP checklists for item selection and rating scales.

Main Results:

High overall agreement (93%) between student and SP checklists was observed.
Strong agreement was noted for interactional skills (98%), physical examination (92%), and history taking (89%).

Agreement on rating scales for interactional skills was also substantial.

Conclusions:

Self-evaluation by medical students is a valid and reliable component of SP exercises.
This method offers a valuable, low-cost addition to medical training and assessment.
Checklists and rating scales are established tools for evaluating clinical encounters.
