Facilitating Adaptive Expertise in Learning Computed Tomography
Not Recruiting
Trial ID: NCT05284838
Purpose
The main objective of this study is to demonstrate that Error Management Training improves
adaptive expertise in head computed tomography interpretation. The investigators will conduct
a randomized controlled trial comparing two learning strategies, Error Management Training vs
Error Avoidance Training, in emergency medicine residents. The investigators hypothesize that
Error Management Training, as compared to Error Avoidance Training, will improve adaptive
expertise, as measured by skills transfer, when used to teach head computed tomography
interpretation to emergency medicine residents.
