| Abstract | BACKGROUND: Doctors' clinical reasoning ability significantly impacts upon their level of clinical competence. Throughout medical training students are given the opportunity to develop their reasoning ability in order to become appropriately clinically competent by graduation. AIM: To develop an instrument to assess students' reasoning ability on a written case-based question which was aligned to their learning in a PBL program. METHOD: An instrument with 10 criteria centred upon hypothesis generation, learning issues and mechanistic explanations was developed. Experienced clinical and medical educators validated the instrument, prior to its use with 145 undergraduate first-year medical students. RESULTS: The results enabled the establishment of the strengths and weaknesses in the reasoning performances of individuals, as well as the overall cohort. The instrument's Cronbach alpha coefficient was 0.94, and it had high inter-rater and intra-rater reliability. Further validation of the instrument's performance was established through qualitative evidence derived from student interviews and tutor reports for this cohort. CONCLUSIONS: Aligning written assessment to the PBL process enables students and teachers to better understand how the reasoning process is developing for individuals and a cohort, and provides a basis for further investigation into the development of student clinical reasoning. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
