Yeates, P., Cope, N., Hawarden, A., Bradshaw, H., McCray, G., & Homer, M. (2019). Developing a video-based method to compare and adjust examiner effects in fully nested OSCEs. Medical Education, 53(3), 250-263. https://doi.org/10.1111/medu.13783

Background:
Whilst averaging across multiple examiners judgements reduces unwanted overall score variability in Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCE), designs involving several parallel circuits of the OSCE require that different examin...

Comparatively salient: examining the influence of preceding performances on assessors' focus and interpretations in written assessment comments. (2018)

Recent literature places more emphasis on assessment comments rather than relying solely on scores. Both are variable, however, emanating from assessment judgements. One established source of variability is "contrast effects": scores are shifted away...

Exploring the Relationship between Examiners’ Memories for performances, domain separation and score variability. (2018)
Journal Article
Yeates, & McCray. (2018). Exploring the Relationship between Examiners’ Memories for performances, domain separation and score variability. Medical Teacher, 1159-1165. https://doi.org/10.1080/0142159X.2018.1463088

Background: OSCE examiners' scores are variable and may discriminate domains of performance poorly. Examiners must hold their observations of OSCE performances in "episodic memory" until performances end. We investigated whether examiners vary in the...
