q1 i? Reflective capacity is widely regarded in the literature as an essential characteristic for professional competence. → Mann 2009

Evidence¶

Mann 2009¶

Mann, K., Gordon, J. & MacLeod, A. (2009). Reflection and reflective practice in health professions education: a systematic review. Adv in Health Sci Educ. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10459-007-9090-2

q1 · i? · review · r?

The review's opening synthesis states that reflection's importance is frequently noted and that "reflective capacity is regarded by many as an essential characteristic for professional competence". This is the review's characterization of the literature, not a tested result.

"The importance of reflection and reflective practice are frequently noted in the literature; indeed, reflective capacity is regarded by many as an essential characteristic for professional competence."
