Evaluating Medical Student Clinical Skill Performance: Relationships among Self, Peer, and Expert Ratings.

Calhoun, Judith G.; And Others

Evaluation and the Health Professions, v11 n2 p201-12 Jun 1988

Second-year medical students (N=187) evaluated their own videotaped performances during physical assessment examinations. Peers and expert evaluators also rated the performances. Significant differences emerged across types of raters. Results show that these students do not accurately assess their own or peers' skills performances. (TJH)
