Development and validation of situational judgement test for assessment of behavioural competencies required for effective medical practice in Nigeria
This study has produced a set of valid clinical scenarios that can be used to evaluate specific behavioural competencies among trainee medical doctors. It demonstrates that SJTs can be used to assess behavioural competencies for medical practice. However, further research is needed to establish the applicability of SJT beyond the immediate context, such as the medical school, in which it is developed.
