Knight, G. William; Guenzel, Pamela

Journal of Dental Education, v53 n3 p194-98 Mar 1990

An experimental group (n=6) of student dentists received discrimination training and self-evaluation exercises on 4 waxing projects and 4 handpiece projects over 13 hours. An equivalent "conventional" group (n=7) received verbal feedback with models on 7 waxing projects over 13 hours. The experimental group outperformed the conventional group. (MLW)
