Figure 1.

Flowchart of selected physiotherapists' PA reports. Notes: The dark-shaded diamonds indicate the 14 selected physiotherapists in which a PA led to outcome D (n=9); the outcome at PA1 was B or C, and the physiotherapist subsequently had outcome B or C at PA2 (n=4); or the outcome was A at PA1 and C at PA2 (n=1). The stippled diamond indicates the 8 selected physiotherapists for whom sub-optimal scores occurred only on PA2: outcome A at PA1 and outcome B at PA2. PA=practice assessment; PA1=first practice assessment; PA2=second practice assessment. Source: Modified from Norman et al.⁹
