BACKGROUND The reliability in Objective Structured Clinical Exams (OSCEs) is based on variance introduced due to examiners, stations, items, standardized patients (SP), and the interaction of one or more of these items with the candidates. The impact of SPs on the reliability has not been well studied. Accordingly, the main purpose of the present study was to assess the accuracy of portrayal by...

We describe a method for mapping the functional regions of the brain using a transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) device. This device, when placed on a subject's scalp, stimulates the underlying neurons by generating focused magnetic eld pulses. A brain mapping is then generated by measuring responses of di erent motor and sensory functions to this stimulation. The key process in generating ...

This research addresses the concept of electronic self-portrayal in synchronous computermediated communication of ad-hoc virtual teams. Electronic self-portrayal is the extent to which a communication system portrays the true identity of its users. It is hypothesized that increased information available due to self-portrayal will have an effect upon the trust and performance of ad-hoc virtual t...
