Impact of video feedback system on medical students' perception of their clinical performance assessment
Abstract
Background: Providing feedback on student performance in the clinical performance assessment (CPA) is meaningful in that it helps students understand their strengths and weaknesses. This study compared students' perception of their CPA scores before and after providing personalized video feedback.
Methods: Two identical online surveys of Year 1 medical students (N = 103) that had undergone CPA were conducted to evaluate students' perceptions about their CPA scores before and after video feedback. Students were given their test scores with assessment analysis reports immediately after completing the CPA. Top-scored students from each station agreed to provide their video-recorded performance to the rest of the students.
Results: After comparing their performance video and top-scored video at each station, medical students were more aware of their CPA total score, clinical performance examination (CPX) total score, score of each CPX station, section score for the CPX station, history taking section score, physical examination section score, and doctor-patient relationship section score. Moreover, students became more convinced of their own weaknesses from their history taking and patient education section after viewing video feedback than before.
Conclusion: The use of the video feedback system might help students recognize their CPA results and identify their strengths and weaknesses.
