Misunderstood OSCE Variants in Physical Therapy Education: A Call for Standardization

Misinterpretations of the OSCE in physical therapy education—such as static paper-based stations and queue-based written circuits—undermine its purpose as a performance-based assessment.

Standardized design, proper examiner training, and elimination of non-interactive formats are essential to preserve the integrity of OSCE and ensure competent clinical practice.
