Table 1.

Measurements of verbally and visually represented knowledge.

Category Description Examples
Recall and transfer of visually represented knowledge

Correctness/completeness of drawn angle elements Positioning of the following elements: (1) point of intersection, (2) basis line, (3) fracture line, and (4) position of angle See Figure 1

Correctness of drawn angle size Measurement of the angle size drawn by the participant eg, 75 degrees

Correctness of estimated angle size Angle size estimated by the participant eg, 75 degrees
Recall and transfer of verbally represented knowledge

Correctness/completeness of functional/radiological characteristics Measurement of written information, including identification of fracture, type of fracture and position, type of functional limitations (extension deficit and rotation error), and degree of functional restrictions and angulation of the fracture Fracture of metacarpal V, extension deficit of 10 degrees, and rotation error of 10 degrees, representing 2 functional deficits

Correctness/completeness of individual sociodemographic patient characteristics Measurement of written information including age, profession, and dominant hand Young, employed patient, dominant hand

Correctness/completeness of overall written answers Summarizes both measurements
