Self-Assessment Programs and Their Implications for Health Professions Training.
Gordon, Michael J.
Academic Medicine, v67 n10 p672-79 Oct 1992
Review of 11 studies of health professions curricula incorporating training in professional self-assessment found initial student disorientation and distrust to be common. However, among successful programs both noncognitive and cognitive benefits appeared. Results suggest that self-assessment training promotes more mature, collegial, productive learning environments and required no extraordinary resources. (Author/MSE)
