An analysis of how repeaters (students from upper grades who joined the study at later waves) differ from others in wave four showed that, as expected, they reported marginally lower competence scores in accounting and less willingness to make an effort (F 2, 315) = 4.060, p = 0.02; Scheffé#1–#3 p = 0.03), and perceived less competence support (F 2, 314) = 3.383, p = 0.04; Scheffé#1–#3 p = 0.04).
An earlier study assessing the clinical competence of NPCs operating at PHCs in India found that RMAs are as competent as physicians in primary care settings, while AYUSH physicians received lower competence scores, and paramedics the lowest.
Clinicians consistently indicated lower competence when compared with all other health professionals in every category assessed except preparedness planning.
In particular, a gender bias in self-estimated competence, with female physicians according themselves lower competence, was previously described [ 42].
Japanese professionals had higher potential than the global average but lower competence.
If "The Stepford Writers" discourages people from going to writing classes, it will lower the "competence" in the world, and is stupid, incompetent and disgraceful.
Transmission reduction is regulated by the relative densities of higher- versus lower-competence hosts in the local community [1].
Prospective teachers show a significantly lower level of competence in indicating student errors, as well as giving high-quality feedback in error situations compared with experienced teachers.
The test was simple and designed to explore a lower threshold for competence in recognition and management, based on the experiences of the authors.
Given their specific interest in guidelines and more training opportunities, it interestingly appears to be the case that those physicians who reported a lower level of competence in the present study are aware of their problem.
