Additional activities include a large-group introduction prior to the standardized patient encounter, a stimulated review of the standardized patient encounter, and a small-group reflection and discussion. The standardized patient case embeds three contextual themes (beliefs about treatment, stressful environment, and fear of what symptoms mean) that are each assigned a specific behavioral cue or clue. Standardized patients are trained to drop these clues and then to give further information only if the student interviewer follows up on the clue. Each theme is constructed to yield potentially meaningful differences in physician decision-making if the clue is or is not followed up on. Students and standardized patients then review the video independently and mark moments in the video that they feel represented clues and whether or not the clue was followed up on. Once the moments have been marked, the students view the video a second time to compare their own markings with those of the standardized patient. Lastly, the students meet in small groups with a faculty facilitator to share one exemplar moment and discuss with the group. Students indicated that the stimulated recall video review of their standardized patient encounter was the most effective activity for triggering reflection, followed by the small-group discussion and the review of the merged standardized patient bookmarks. Students felt that the activities were effective overall in promoting reflection on the relevance of context in the medical encounter. Educational Objectives By the end of this sequence of activities, students should be able to: Identify commonly occurring patient clues (both verbal and nonverbal) that can signify important contextual information.Critique a student physician's communicative process with respect to eliciting contextual information.Articulate an understanding of the role of contextual issues in clinical care.
