Direct Observation Assessment of Milestones: Problems with Reliability.
INTRODUCTION Emergency medicine (EM) milestones are used to assess residents' progress. While some milestone validity evidence exists, there is a lack of standardized tools available to reliably assess residents. Inherent to this is a concern that we may not be truly measuring what we intend to assess. The purpose of this study was to design a direct observation milestone assessment instrument ...
متن کاملMilestones-based direct observation tools in internal medicine resident continuity clinic
BACKGROUND With milestones-based assessment, there is an increased need for tools to facilitate direct observation of clinical trainees. This study was designed to compare a Mini-CEX tool to new direct observation tools (DOTs) linked to internal medicine milestones. METHODS A web based survey was used to examine satisfaction and usefulness of DOTs compared to the Mini-CEX. Residents and prece...
متن کاملImportant Milestones in Software Reliability Modeling
A number of software reliability models have been proposed for assessing the reliability of a software system. In this paper, we discuss the time-domain and data-domain approaches to software reliability modeling, and classify the previously reported models into these two classes based on their underlying assumptions. The data-domain models are further classiied into fault-seeding and input dom...
متن کاملAutomated Ecological Assessment of Physical Activity: Advancing Direct Observation
Technological advances provide opportunities for automating direct observations of physical activity, which allow for continuous monitoring and feedback. This pilot study evaluated the initial validity of computer vision algorithms for ecological assessment of physical activity. The sample comprised 6630 seconds per camera (three cameras in total) of video capturing up to nine participants enga...
متن کاملA reliability assessment of a direct-observation park evaluation tool: the Parks, activity and recreation among kids (PARK) tool
BACKGROUND Parks are increasingly being viewed as a resource that may influence youth obesity and physical activity (PA). Assessing park quality can be challenging as few tools assess park characteristics geared towards youth PA. Additionally, no studies have compared reliability estimates of items assessed in different countries, hindering aims towards generalizable park audit items. Finally, ...
