MARTINEZ-TAPIA, Ricardo J e SAMPIERI-CABRERA, Raúl. Self-assessment based on criteria as an evaluation element in subjects with a high cognitive load. FEM (Ed. impresa) [online]. 2023, vol.26, n.6, pp.233-240. Epub 18-Mar-2024. ISSN 2014-9840. https://dx.doi.org/10.33588/fem.2606.1308.
Introduction.
Self-assessment has been defined as the process by which students decide whether or not they have achieved the defined standards. Self-assessment is a valuable tool to identify weaknesses and strengths in medical students.
Objective.
To compare the results of a self-assessment test based on criteria with the results of a standardized exam to assess disciplinary knowledge in physiology.
Subjects and methods.
In this work we developed and applied a self-assessment tool to second-year medical students in the physiology course of the Faculty of Medicine of the National Autonomous University of Mexico. We then collected feedback and divided it into ratings categorized as: 'high scores' and 'low scores.' Finally, we compared the results of the self-assessment with those of an objective test (standardized test) that assesses disciplinary knowledge of physiology.
Results.
Students who consider that they have made a constant effort and work during the course value themselves better than students who do not. On the other hand, we found significant differences between the objective test and the self-assessment.
Conclusions.
Criteria-based self-assessment can help assess qualities beyond disciplinary knowledge.
