The Accuracy of Health Professions Students' Self-Assessments Compared to Objective Measures of Competence. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • The literature review examined the relationship between students' self-perceptions of knowledge or confidence and their actual competence across various fields, including healthcare and pharmacy.
  • Most of the included studies emphasized students' self-reported confidence rather than measuring their actual competencies through formal assessments.
  • The review suggests that educational research should prioritize competency measures as the main outcome, while student perceptions can serve as supplementary data rather than the primary metric.

Article Abstract

To review the literature related to potential associations between self-assessed perceptions of knowledge and/or confidence with actual competence. Twenty-two articles involving a variety of disciplines, including undergraduate studies, dentistry, medicine, and pharmacy were included following the screening process. Most studies focused on student self-reported confidence rather than competency assessed by a formative examination. Only a handful of studies were centered on pharmacy education. Educational research that evaluates student learning should employ measures of competency as the primary outcome rather than student perceptions. Using student perceptions as the primary measure of student learning should be avoided, but student perceptions may have some utility as an adjunct to competency data.
