A postal questionnaire was sent to all 140 trainers in the west of Scotland region and to the 102 trainees who had completed their training three months prior to the survey. The aim of the study was to identify the types of trainee assessment in use, the proportion of trainers using the various methods, the attitudes of trainers and trainees to the assessment methods employed, and their views on a regional assessment programme. Response rates of 89% for trainers and 71% for trainees were obtained. Almost all respondents reported the use of some from of assessment. The mean number of assessment types reported by trainees was 3.7 and by trainers 5.2. The most commonly used method was videotaping of trainee consultations, used by 76% of respondents, and the least common the use of hard data, for example prescribing statistics or referral rates. Videotaping was also rated the most useful method by both groups. Those with experience of the assessment methods gave them a higher score for usefulness than those without such experience. Approximately half of the respondents favoured a regional protocol for assessment. This study has shown that if trainers and trainees can be encouraged to use assessment methods they will find them helpful. However, universal assessment will only become a reality when it becomes a requirement for accreditation as a trainer.
一份邮政调查问卷被寄给了苏格兰西部地区的所有140名培训师以及在调查前三个月完成培训的102名学员。该研究的目的是确定正在使用的学员评估类型、使用各种方法的培训师比例、培训师和学员对所采用评估方法的态度，以及他们对区域评估计划的看法。培训师的回复率为89%，学员的回复率为71%。几乎所有受访者都报告使用了某种形式的评估。学员报告的评估类型平均数量为3.7种，培训师为5.2种。最常用的方法是对学员咨询进行录像，76%的受访者使用了这种方法，最不常用的是使用硬数据，例如处方统计或转诊率。录像也被两组评为最有用的方法。有评估方法经验的人对其有用性的评分高于没有这种经验的人。大约一半的受访者赞成制定区域评估方案。这项研究表明，如果能够鼓励培训师和学员使用评估方法，他们会发现这些方法很有帮助。然而，只有当普遍评估成为培训师认证的一项要求时，它才会成为现实。
