Estimates for the Supplemental Multilevel Models Predicting Internal Medicine Subject Examination Scores

Coefficient Standard error p value Interpretation
Supplemental model 1
 Grand mean 77.44 0.23 < 0.01 Grand mean for internal medicine subject examination scores
 Number of completed clerkships 0.72 0.04 < 0.01 With each additional clerkship completed, predicted subject examination performance increases 0.72 points
 Step 1 score 0.25 0.00 < 0.01 Each 10-point increase in Step 1 scores is associated with a 2.5-point increase in predicted subject examination performance
Supplemental model 2
 Grand mean 77.42 0.23 < 0.01 Grand mean for internal medicine subject examination scores
 Number of weeks of training 0.11 0.00 < 0.01 With each 1-week increase in training time predicted subject examination performance increases 0.11 points
 Step 1 score 0.25 0.00 < 0.01 Each 10-point increase in Step 1 scores is associated with a 2.5-point increase in predicted subject examination performance
