Evaluate assessment practices and outcomes for dietetic students and compare findings with those from a previous systematic review.
A systematic review was conducted whereby four databases (MEDLINE, Embase, Cumulative Index in Nursing and Allied Health Literature, and Education Resources Information Centre) were searched on 11 October 2023 with terms related to dietetics, students, and assessment. The search was repeated on 8 January 2025 to identify new publications. Eligibility criteria were primary research published after 1 June 2017 reporting at least one assessment method for dietetic students with an assessment-related outcome. Assessment practices and outcomes were evaluated using Miller's Pyramid, the New World Kirkpatrick's Hierarchy, and the principles of programmatic assessment.
From 5701 search results, 22 were identified, revealing new assessment practices, including entrustable professional activities, e-portfolios, and programmatic assessment, localised to Australia and Singapore. Compared to publications prior to 2017, a greater proportion conceptualised assessment as part of a system (46% compared to 28%) with a sustained higher prevalence of does and shows levels of Miller's Pyramid. Evaluation continued to focus on reaction, learning, and behaviour.
Findings indicate a transition towards programmatic approaches to systems of assessment within dietetics, though this shift was not observed globally. Such a shift is crucial for ensuring the profession's agility in responding to modern disruptors and maintaining the delivery of high-quality education.
评估营养学专业学生的评估实践及结果，并将研究结果与之前的系统评价结果进行比较。
进行了一项系统评价，于2023年10月11日在四个数据库（医学文献数据库、Embase、护理及相关健康文献累积索引和教育资源信息中心）中搜索与营养学、学生和评估相关的术语。2025年1月8日重复该搜索以识别新的出版物。纳入标准为2017年6月1日后发表的报告至少一种针对营养学专业学生的评估方法及相关评估结果的原始研究。使用米勒金字塔、新世界柯克帕特里克层次体系和程序性评估原则对评估实践和结果进行评估。
从5701条搜索结果中，识别出22条，揭示了新的评估实践，包括可托付专业活动、电子档案袋和程序性评估，这些实践主要集中在澳大利亚和新加坡。与2017年之前的出版物相比，更大比例的研究将评估概念化为系统的一部分（46%对28%），且米勒金字塔中“会做”和“能展示”水平的患病率持续较高。评估仍集中在反应、学习和行为方面。
研究结果表明，营养学评估体系正朝着程序性方法转变，不过这种转变并非在全球范围内都能观察到。这种转变对于确保该专业灵活应对现代干扰因素并持续提供高质量教育至关重要。
