The Impact of Virtual Laboratories on Student Clinical Education Preparedness: A Mixed-Method Analysis
CONCLUSION: Results indicate no statistically significant difference for virtual versus in-person laboratory and no difference compared with the 2019 cohort. Virtual instruction effectively prepared students for their clinical experiences across all settings. Although an in-person laboratory experience may be preferred, it is possible to deliver effective experiences in a virtual setting without compromising student performance. Further research is needed to confirm findings.PMID:38478822 | DOI:10.1097/JTE.0000000000000270 (Source: Physical Therapy)

The Time Is Now: Leveraging the Affective Domain in PT Education and Clinical Practice
CONCLUSION: Explicitly using the AD in physical therapy education is imperative to the success and sustainability of the profession and in meeting critical societal needs. Engaging all learners in the AD does not require monumental curricular change. Intentional activities and strategies can develop the humanistic values of the learner across a curriculum and can shift the culture of academia from primarily cognitive and psychomotor to one that is comprehensive across all domains. The AD informs the cognitive and psychomotor aspects of learning and has direct implications for clinical practice in meeting stakeholder needs....

Professional Experience Related to Self-Assessed Teaching Effectiveness Among Physical Therapist Clinical Instructors
CONCLUSION: Specific teaching, clinical, and practice experiences were related to CTE. To increase PT CI CTE, CIs are encouraged to consider ABPTS certification, CCIP level 1 and level 2, and mentoring students regularly. The PT profession, APTA, and Doctor of Physical Therapy programs should support these endeavors.PMID:38478824 | DOI:10.1097/JTE.0000000000000276 (Source: Physical Therapy)

Impact of Task-Fit Misalignment and the Director of Clinical Education: A Grounded Theory Study
This study explored the impact of professional and positional task characteristics of the DCE position on task-fit misalignment within PT education programs. Task-fit explores how the tasks of a particular job align with the appropriately trained person who holds the position.REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE: A recently published DCE Matrix highlights 2 extremes of misalignment and nonoptimal task-fit between the position and the person. Misalignment was investigated rather than alignment because negative connotations often have greater impact on behavior, decision making, and relationships. The impact of misalignment is unknown.S...

Learning and Study Strategies of Students in the First Year of an Entry-Level Physical Therapist Program
CONCLUSION: Students, on average, may not have adequate learning and study strategies when they start an entry-level PT education program. The LASSI may be an effective tool to focus resources in a timely and proactive manner for those students who may need them. Determining the resources needed earlier may decrease the need for later remediation, attrition, or licensure examination failures.PMID:38478827 | DOI:10.1097/JTE.0000000000000275 (Source: Physical Therapy)

Noncognitive Factors of Grit and Mindset Do Not Predict Performance on the National Physical Therapy Exam
CONCLUSION: Among PT students at a small liberal arts institution in the midwest, grit and mindset were not associated with any indicators of academic success (e.g., cGPA, sGPA, gGPA, Academic PEAT, or NPTE scores). NPTE outcomes were best predicted by gGPA and Academic PEAT scores. These findings conflict with previous reports that grit and mindset are potential markers for academic success and support monitoring gGPA and Academic PEAT scores to identify students who may require additional preparation before sitting for the NPTE.PMID:38478828 | DOI:10.1097/JTE.0000000000000268 (Source: Physical Therapy)

Physical Therapists' Perceptions of Preparedness to Engage in Culturally Competent Practice Upon Graduation: A Qualitative Research Study
CONCLUSION: Entry-level DPT programs may consider exposing students to diverse patient populations through diverse clinical rotation opportunities, community outreach, and interactive learning early in the curriculum. Incorporating student experiences with different social, cultural, or ethnic groups may promote a greater perceived value of cultural competence curriculum and improve PTs' perceptions of preparedness to practice culturally competent care. Programs may also examine the direct and indirect influence clinical instructors have on developing DPT students' cultural competence during clinical rotations.PMID:3847882...

Student Physical Therapists' Orientation to Postprofessional Education and Perceptions of Strain: Identification of 4 Subgroups of Students Based on Cluster Analysis
CONCLUSION: Results from this study describe important differences in how student physical therapists view postprofessional education and the pathways they choose to pursue. Factors such as lack of awareness and the perception of personal or interpersonal strain may influence these decisions. Understanding postprofessional education decision making of student physical therapists is of particular interest to the physical therapy profession given the current debates related to student debt and the necessity of residency education. Further research is needed to understand how to increase awareness and diminish barriers to qua...
