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.

q3 i? Sixth-year students and interns produced far more enabling conditions when describing a prototypical patient than when describing the clinical picture, unlike students and physicians. → Boshuizen 1995

Evidence¶

Boshuizen 1995¶

Boshuizen, H. P. A., Schmidt, H. G., Custers, E. J. F. M., & van de Wiel, M. W. (1995). Knowledge Development and Restructuring in the Domain of Medicine: The Role of Theory and Practice. Learning and Instruction. https://www.sciencedirect.com/journal/learning-and-instruction

q3 · i? · causal · r2

Experiment 2 probe contrast (prototypical patient vs clinical picture description). The article concludes this suggests "that it is not yet fully integrated into their illness scripts" for intermediates; students search causal networks, family physicians their illness scripts.

"an interaction between probe and expertise level was found (F (3, 81)=3.549; p<O.O5): especially for intcrmediatcs who produced far more enabling conditions when asked to describe a prototypical patient than when asked to describe the clinical picture of the disease."

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

Prior Knowledge — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes

Through experience with real cases, causal knowledge transforms into narrative illness scripts — a broader claim this one bears on
