Pleased to share a preview of my latest publication “Relationships between cognitive appraisals of threat and challenge, psychophysiological responses, and clinical performance during high-stress simulated osces” in BMC Medical Education.

.This paper is the 5th published article from my PhD research. “The way students cognitively appraise high-pressure clinical scenarios can meaningfully influence both their biological stress responses and their ability to perform effectively.

Pleased to share my 4th publication for my PhD which examined performance and psychophysiological response to simulated high-stress scenario assessments in Paramedicine students. lnkd.in/geP7wDtd

"Our results demonstrate that by undertaking repeat simulated high-acuity scenario assessments, learners can reduce their anxiety and stress levels, enhance confidence, improve decision-making skills, and more importantly produce better clinical outcomes.

In environments where educators assess healthcare students using high-acuity OSCE assessments, we believe the findings of this study strongly endorse the concept that students should be given the opportunity to participate in a practice OSCE in simulated assessment conditions".

Well pleased to share @JasonBetson's third PhD paper on the feasibility of utilizing fNIRS to measure cognitive load in #paramedicine students. @ACUmedia @unisqaus jeehp.org/journal/view.php?n…

Latest from NY Times. School closures did little to stop the spread of Covid but caused a lot of long term harm to children.

Am I missing something obvious in covid discussions that continually ignore Sweden even today? Sweden was the placebo/active comparator to full scale lockdowns. If the primary objective (clinical trial hat on) was age adjusted excess mortality then it showed no statistically

Replying to @theheraldsun
You wasted a spectacular amount of money. You failed to exhibit any understanding of age specific risk of Covid You chased Covid zero for an inordinately long period of time You had the worst Covid stats of any jurisdiction in Australia Enough said

You will love this: I go through the whole Cochrane mask fiasco so you don't have it! NYTimes, Cochrane corrections, Tom Jefferson, Tufecki, it is all in here This is the latest fiasco in EBM sensiblemed.substack.com/p/t…

How much difference do masks make? Cochrane review “The pooled results of RCTs did not show a clear reduction in respiratory viral infection with the use of medical/surgical masks.” cochranelibrary.com/content?…

What a lovely gift - but really my pleasure to present at the inaugural Canadian Paramedicine Research online conference #CanPRD #SPUCan
