Art and Alzheimer dementia: A museum experience for patients may benefit medical students
In this issue of Neurology®, Roberts and Noble1 describe a pilot study of an intervention designed to change medical students' perceptions of dementia by having students participate in a museum-based arts program for persons with dementia and their caregivers in New York City. In a single 90-minute session, preclerkship students joined 6–10 pairs of patients with dementia and caregivers (one student per group) for their activities, including responding to art works in galleries and creating art in the studio. On pretests and post-tests using the Dementia Attitude Scale (DAS), the 20 students in this study experie...

Comment: Generalizability theory and assessment in medical training
Even though it is more than 50 years old,1 generalizability theory,2 or G theory, is not well known to the medical community. It combines aspects of classic test theory and analysis of variance in order to estimate reliability ("G-study") of a measurement instrument as a function of design aspects ("facets" in G-theory literature), and to improve instrument design ("D-study"). G theory is unrelated to G estimation used in causal inference.

Knowledge, attitudes and practice towards epilepsy among medical staff in Southern China: Does the level of hospitals make a difference?
People with epilepsy and their families suffer from severe stigma and discrimination in China, mostly because of traditional and superstitious views [1 –3]. Such cultural misconceptions are considered to be a greater handicap to people with epilepsy than disability from repetitive seizures or antiepileptic drug side effects [4,5], contributing to tremendous psychological, economic, and social burdens [6–8]. Worse more, such stigmatizing attitud es are not just prevalent among the general population, but also exist in health-care personnel even though they have received medical education or training and are supposed to ...

Education Research: Neurology resident education: Trending skills, confidence, and professional preparation
Discussion: Although there are still areas of perceived weakness in neurology training, graduating neurology residents feel generally well prepared for their chosen careers. However, most still pursue fellowship training for reasons that are little understood. In addition to certain subspecialties and procedures, practice management remains deficient in neurology training and is a point of future insecurity for most residents. Future curriculum changes should consider resident-reported gaps in knowledge, with careful consideration of improving business training.

Development and Dissemination of a Neurology Palliative Care Curriculum: Education in Palliative and End-of-Life Care Neurology
Despite increasing awareness of the importance of a palliative care approach to meet the needs of persons living with neurologic illness, residency and fellowship programs report meeting this educational need due to a limited pool of neuropalliative care educators and a lack of adequate educational resources. To meet this need, a group of experts in neuropalliative care and palliative medicine leveraged resources from the Education in Palliative and End-of-life Care (EPEC) program and the National Institutes of Nursing Research to create a library of modules addressing topics relevant for neurology trainees, palliative med...
