Purpose: This scoping review aims to map the breadth of the literature examining how trust is defined in health care teams, describe what measurements of trust are used, and investigate the precursors and outcomes of trust.
Method: Five electronic databases (Ovid MEDLINE, CINAHL, PsycInfo, Embase, and ASSIA [Applied Social Sciences Index and Abstracts]) were searched alongside sources of gray literature in February 2021. To be included, studies needed to discuss a health care team directly involved in managing patient care and one aspect of trust as a relational concept.
Background: The Medical Students Non-Technical Skills (Medi-StuNTS) system is a behavioural marker system (BMS) designed to identify and debrief non-technical skills (NTS) for medical students during immersive simulation. Educators must be adequately trained in using the BMS. This study aimed to design and implement an online platform to deliver a faculty development course on using Medi-StuNTS and evaluate the feasibility of this platform in training faculty to identify and debrief NTS.

Design: This qualitative study used an observational approach of interprofessional workshops combined with subsequent individual interviews with IM trainees. Workshops and interviews were audiorecorded, transcribed verbatim and analysed utilising NVivo software.
Background: The Medical Students' Non-Technical Skills (Medi-StuNTS) behavioural marker system (BMS) is the first BMS to be developed specifically for medical students to facilitate training in non-technical skills (NTS) within immersive simulated acute care scenarios. In order to begin implementing the tool in practice, validity evidence must be sought. We aimed to assess the validity of the Medi-StuNTS system with reference to Messick's contemporary validity framework.

Such experiences have the potential to foster transformative learning by facilitating a reassessment of one's prior assumptions and a significant shift in one's outlook, referred to as the process of perspective transformation. The aim of this research was to explore how NTS training might facilitate transformative learning in final-year medical students.
