About this study
Official title: Definitions of Success and Failure in Post-graduate Medical Education and Its Influencing Factors: A Delphi Consensus Study
The objective of this study is to generate expert consensus statements on the definitions of success and failure and its influencing factors in Post-graduate medical education.
Read the detailed description
A study will be performed using a e-Delphi process with Portuguese expert panel to generate recommendation statements related to the definitions of success and failure in Post-graduate medical education and its influencing factors and to determine the level of agreement for each statement from the panel as a whole. The following topics will be covered:
- Success in Post-graduate medical education: definition, influencing factors
- Failure in Post-graduate medical education: definition, influencing factors
- Management Consensus is achieved through iterative rounds of survey and revision to the statements until a pre-determined level of agreement is met (75% agreement).
Part 1: planning and evidence review
- Series of planning sessions with study investigators
- Literature is reviewed/summarized
- Initial statements will be developed based on Round 1 results. Round 1 will be composed of 4 open-ended questions
Part 2: Survey to achieve consensus
- Survey, based on the initial statements developed on Round 1 results
- At least 2 additional rounds of review (remote rounds using an online platform) will be held to achieve consensus on each topic of interest and finalize consensus statements
- Conditions
- Medical Education
