Problems arising from the present rate of failure of vocational trainees in the MRCGP examination are outlined; and the role of formative assessment during training in reducing this rate is considered. A study is described in which trainees in a number of centres were assessed by a method designed to measure specified cognitive abilities and areas of knowledge. The method, based on written papers, provides each candidate with a profile of performance and generates comparative standards. Reliability of marking, the distribution of candidate-scores within and between areas of assessment and techniques for monitoring the effectiveness of questions are reported. Use of the method by College as an educational service to trainees is considered, along with its potential as a Part I MRCGP examination.
概述了目前全科医学研究生考试(MRCGP)职业培训学员不及格率所引发的问题;并探讨了培训期间形成性评估在降低该不及格率方面的作用。描述了一项研究,其中多个中心的学员通过一种旨在测量特定认知能力和知识领域的方法进行评估。该方法基于书面试卷,为每位考生提供一份表现概况并生成比较标准。报告了评分的可靠性、评估领域内和领域间考生分数的分布以及监测问题有效性的技术。还考虑了学院将该方法作为对学员的教育服务加以使用的情况,以及其作为MRCGP考试第一部分的潜力。
