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? All five facilitators preferred VAD over VD, valuing the visualisation of important events for precise feedback and the objectivity of video that reduced the need to justify negative feedback. → Stefan A. Schreder 2025

q2 · i? · qualitative · r3
Individual interviews with the five facilitators of the SIMMed training cycle. Facilitators reported that "V AD provided the opportunity to review the simulated scenario without bias" and that video evidence supported their professional opinions, which helped acceptance of negative feedback regardless of medical hierarchy.
"All five facilitators preferred V AD in comparison to VD. The facilitators liked the possibility of visualising important events that happened during the scenario to give precise feedback."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- Video evidence in VAD increased participants' acceptance of feedback and its credibility, reducing disputes over whether critical observations were correct — related
- Implementing VAD raised facilitator cognitive demand, debriefing time, and attention competition with the video, with segment-search time greater in lower-tech VAD — related
- High-tech VAD equipment made some participants feel under observation and stressed, and viewing recorded mistakes before teammates was seen as critical in both VAD forms, a potential threat to psychological safety — related
- Most simulation participants preferred high-tech video-assisted debriefing over lower-tech VAD and verbal debriefing, mainly for its better audio/video quality and focused review — related
- Video-assisted debriefing enhances precision but risks psychological safety and narrows reflection to individual performance — related
