Abstract

OTAS exhibits adequate construct validity as assessed by consistency in the scoring by expert versus novices-ie, expert raters produce significantly more consistent scoring than novice raters. Further validation should assess the learning curve for novices in OTAS. Relationships between OTAS, measures of technical skill, and behavioral responses to surgical crises should also be quantified.
