Study Summary
During the project, fourth-year medical students participating in a Medicine sub-internship will be randomized to an intervention group or a control group; the intervention group will receive additional training in the application of qualitative methodology to elicit and incorporate contextual factors in the clinical encounter. All students will participate in an SP assessment consisting of four standardized patients (SPs), blinded to trial arm, presenting cases with and without important biomedical and contextual factors in a counterbalanced factorial design. Performance will be compared between trial arms; the investigators hypothesize better performance in the intervention arm. In addition, performance will be compared with United States Medical Licensing Exam (USMLE) Step 2 clinical knowledge scores to determine whether contextualizing ability is independent of clinical knowledge, and consistency of performance across individual SP cases will be studied to determine the number of cases necessary to achieve sufficient reliability for the assessment to be used.
Primary Outcome
Probability that the learner writes a correct treatment plan for the standardized patient encounters undertaken at assessment at end of subinternship that include contextual red flags. All learners are scheduled to see 4 encounters, based on combinations of four cases and four potential variants (baseline, biomedical, contextual, biocontextual) with counterbalancing by study month; each has a single contextual variant encounter. Treatment plans are assessed by an investigator blinded to the lear
