A comparison of the diencephalic and subcortical telencephalic areas of the brain of Felis jaguarondi and Felis domestica.

The gross topographic features of a freshly prepared brain of the Felis jaguarondi (yagouaroundi) indigenous to Central and South America but rare in North America, was compared with an endocast from the Philippine F. minuta (bengalensis) and brains of the American F. domestica (catus).

Measuring clinical competence of medical students.

Evidence of clinical competence for medical students entering the clinical clerkships at the University of Kansas College of Health Sciences is established by passing two different examinations: a 100 item multiple choice examination and a videotaped history and physical examination by each student of a simulated patient, being rated by that patient and two examiners. In 1976 the class of 196 medical students took an average 1.85 written examinations per student.
