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? Learners in the evaluative user study read patient responses, examination findings, available actions, and feedback together to judge whether the represented case remained coherent. → Zhiqi Gao 2026

q2 · i? · qualitative · r3
Evaluative user study with a separate cohort of 12 clinical-year medical students, each completing two counterbalanced cases followed by semi-structured interviews; qualitative interview analysis found learners "used patient responses, examination findings, available actions, and feedback together" to judge case coherence.
"Learners interpreted MedEasy as a connected consultation environment. They used patient responses, examination findings, available actions, and feedback together to judge whether the represented case remained coherent."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- A formative study with 12 clinical-year medical students produced four design-oriented themes for AI-SP consultation practice — related
- Learners valued repeatable practice and recorded review in MedEasy while questioning missing actions and feedback criteria — related
- Formative participants preferred post-session debriefing over in-session interruption, with timing treated as contingent on error severity — related
- Formative participants found human SP practice valuable for embodied cues but episodic and unevenly connected to individualized feedback — related
- Controlled GenAI virtual-patient and communication studies reported short-term skill gains, but positive findings were not universal — related
