A new way of seeing assessment expertise: A hermeneutic literature review

Svetlana King, Amy Seymour-Walsh, Elizabeth Farmer, Lambert Schuwirth

Research output: Contribution to conference › Poster › peer-review

Abstract

Introduction/background:Bias in performance-based assessment has long been a concern in health professional education. While approaches involving psychometrics have been used to understand accuracy and variation in scoring, they are limited in helping us to understand the complexities of assessment decision-making. Examining theoretical underpinnings of human judgement and decision-making can facilitate our understanding of bias and expertise in assessment.
