Perceptions of the Role of a Faculty Supervisor or “Mentor” at Two Medical Schools
This study compared faculty and student perceptions of the ideal and the actual role of a faculty supervisor or “mentor” at two schools of medicine — one in the United States and the other in England. Results indicated that, although faculty and students at both schools expected the mentor to spend more time, ideally, in 14 teaching, advising, and role‐modelling activities than he/she actually did, a generally high level of concordance between me…
Reliability and Validity of a Priori Estimates of Item Characteristics for an Examination of Health Science Information
A priori estimates of item characteristics are necessary for the effi cient development of sound tests. Judges were asked to rate the For mat, Relevancy, Difficulty, Discrimination, and Overall Quality of multiple-choice items for an examination covering health science in formation. Ratings of Relevancy were least reliable. The combined estimates of Difficulty did not correspond with empirical values of item difficulty; however, the combined rati…
Correlation of Intramural and Extramural Measures of Knowledge in the Clinical Sciences of Medicine
The validity of an examination of knowledge in the medical sciences was assessed. Scores in the clinical medicine categories and total score of the Quarterly Profile Examination (QPE) were correlated with corresponding scores on the Part II examination of the National Board of Medical Examiners for three different examination dates. The correlations were found to be significant for each of the three groups. Since each examination date involved a …
Validity of the Study Practices Inventory for Pharmacy Students
The validity of the Study Practices Inventory (SPI) for a group of entering pharmacy students was assessed. The four subscores of the SPI were correlated with students' entering grade point average (GPA) and with their scores on the four subtests of the Nelson-Denny (ND) Reading Test. Statistically significant correlations included : (1) SPI-Systematic and Purposeful Study with GPA; (2) SPI-Total Score with GPA; (3) SPI-Verbal Comprehension with …
Edumetric Validity of the Quarterly Profile Examination
Investigators traditionally have reported the psychometric properties of tests. Less often reported are the edumetric properties of tests used for measurement of within-individual growth. The standard growth expectations for various levels and categories of the Quarterly Profile Examination were reported in this study as an approach to assessing edumetric validity. Although psychometric properties of this test of medical information were previous…
Correlation of Quarterly Profile Examination and National Board of Medical Examiner Scores
The concurrent validity of a computer-assisted test construction system designed to measure information in the medical sciences was assessed. Scores on the Quarterly Profile Examination were correlated with scores on the National Board of Medical Examiners, Part I, for four different examination dates at a new medical school. Results were presented for seven categories of the examination. The correlations were, for the most part, significant. A t…
Impact on Admission to a School of Medicine of an Innovation in Selection Procedures
This paper reports the impact on admission to the University of Missouri-Kansas City's 6-yr. combined baccalaureate-doctor of medicine program of an innovation in selection procedures. In 1973 and 1974, the school's Council on Selection de-emphasized high school academic performance but continued to consider extensive biographical and interview data. Significant differences emerged in the correlations of various selection criteria with the Counci…
