Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q2 i? Four studies demonstrated a change in student behaviour consistent with Kirkpatrick level 3, including students in a computer case-based intervention investing more study time (38.5 min vs 15.9 min) with significantly higher test scores. → Delungahawatta T. 2022

q2 · i? · review · r3
The review reports this from Schneider et al.'s randomised study of the CASUS virtual-patient platform in urology, as one of four Kirkpatrick level 3 studies; other examples include podcast-influenced flipped-classroom behaviour and game-based willingness to prepare before sessions.
"students in the computer case-based intervention group were found to invest more time into studying course subjects (38.5 min vs 15.9 min) which resulted in significantly higher test scores"
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Included orthodontic simulation studies evaluated outcomes only at Kirkpatrick reaction and learning levels, never at behaviour or results levels — related
- No included SDL studies measured Kirkpatrick Level 4 (patient/system) outcomes — related
- Video review improves resident behaviours in clinical practice (Kirkpatrick level 3), including leadership, prescribing accuracy and communication — related
- Evidence on transfer to clinical behavior and patient outcomes is scarce: only 2 studies reached Kirkpatrick level 3 and 1 reached level 4 — related
- Educational interventions for FM residents targeting the informal curriculum rarely produced behavior change: most were evaluated only at Kirkpatrick level 2 and study quality was low — related
- No included WBA feedback study demonstrated improved learning and performance as a direct result of WBA (Kirkpatrick Level 4); the highest level reached was Level 3 — reports the opposite
