This book was released on 2011 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Context: The ability of practitioners to engage in critically appraising patient information, making clinical judgements, assessing treatment efficacy and effectiveness, and ultimately seeking improvement of clinical practices are paramount to ensuring quality health care. Objective: To evaluate the effects of two computer-based instructional modalities, computer simulation (SIM) or case study (CS), on critical thinking skills and self-efficacy of undergraduate athletic training students. Design: Pretest-Posttest Study. Setting: University Computer Classroom. Patients or Other Participants: Subjects included 49 pre-clinical level students pursuing a Bachelor of Science degree in Athletic Training from a CAATE-accredited undergraduate athletic training education program. Intervention: Subject received an 8-week computer-based instructional interventions consisting of either 5 written simulations or 5 traditional case studies covering the Acute Care and Assessment and Evaluation of Athletic Injuries and Illnesses Injuries and Illness content areas. Main Outcome: Subjects' critical thinking skills were measured using the Health Science Reasoning Test (HSRT). A Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (SEQ) was utlized to assess the subjects' perceptions of their ability to learn and perform clinical problem solving. Results: There was no significant change measured in critical thinking or self-efficacy for either the SIM or CS groups over the 8-week study. There were no statistical differences in HSRT Total Score or SEQ scores found between groups. Conclusion: The 8-week stand-alone computer-based interventions assessed in this study did not yield statistically significant improvements in critical thinking of self efficacy as measured by the HSRT and SEQ. However, these interventions may be a valuable mechanism for providing students with multiple context-rich experiences in which to practice connecting basic content knowledge in higher cognitive applications. Furthermore, these simulations may provide guided opportunities for students to collect and reflect on clinical data, practice core critical thinking skills, and receive feedback on their performances in preparation for clinical field experiences.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Critical thinking has been a component of modern education for most of the past century regardless of the discipline. Athletic training education is a much more youthful field, specifically with regards to the amount of research available. One area of athletic training education that has not yet been analyzed to a great extent is the importance of critical thinking. Critical thinking has been described by many to involve skills or abilities as well as dispositions or traits that underlie the ability to use the skills. The purpose of this research is to investigate whether critical thinking dispositions are important to success in athletic training; meaning, is a student who is predisposed to think critically more successful in an athletic training education program and on the national athletic training BOC examination? This study investigated 16 (9 male and 7 female) athletic training students at a large, public Midwestern university with a CAATE-accredited athletic training education program. The project followed the same group of students through the athletic training education program with a longitudinal pretest/posttest research design. The data were analyzed using t-tests, ANOVAs, correlations, and regression analysis to determine that critical thinking dispositions did not have an impact on success in athletic training education programs or on the BOC exam, but rather that systematicity was a disposition common in those that failed the BOC examination. The CCTDI measures were found to be relatively stable over time in the athletic training education program, but there was a statistically significant difference in the truthseeking subscale mean from pretest to posttest (t=2.32, p=.035). Females scored significantly higher than males on the maturity and openmindedness dispositional subscales in both the pretest and posttest CCTDI administrations. More research must be done on the relationship of critical thinking measures in athletic training education to determine the best method of assessment.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Athletic training requires critical thinking and problem solving skills for excellence in practice. It is necessary for students to learn, practice, and become confident in using a systematic and orderly process for differential diagnoses in patients with multiple medical conditions and co-morbidities. The purpose of this study was to reveal athletic training students' perceptions of critical thinking skills as they relate to problem based learning in a General Medical Aspects course. The researcher used problem-based learning and simulation to teach critical thinking and problem-solving skills. The study used several methods of data collection to capture the thoughts, feelings, experiences, and opinions of athletic training students regarding the use of problem-based learning. A case study design was employed to capture a snapshot into the General Medical Aspects course. The data consisted of surveys, reflection papers, and interviews to discern their thoughts and feelings of the PBL experience. There were two groups of 12 athletic training students identified for the reflection papers. The AT students represented several classes some with previous PBL experience and some with No previous PBL experience. The interviews consisted of six AT students selected from a convenience sample, who answered questions based on their PBL experience. The results revealed that the non- experienced PBL group had no opinion of their previous PBL experience, and the majority said that they believed PBL would provide them additional skills. In the experienced PBL group, the majority had no opinion of their previous PBL experience, but 11 out of 12 believed that PBL would provide them with additional skills. The reflection paper data yielded the following themes. The experienced PBL group discussed two themes, one centered on communication, teamwork and assigning responsibilities for tasks and the other theme was regarding thinking and working in a systematic fashion. The non-experienced PBL group displayed three themes. The first theme was about PBL helping them to understand the clinical process. The second theme centered on the use of cognition and the thought process during the PBL scenario, and the final theme related to AT students realizing they were using teamwork and learning from their classmates. Four broad themes which were revealed during the interview sessions were positioned around the AT students thoughts and feelings about the PBL experience, the process the students used during the PBL session, the skills they acquired, and the thinking process used during the PBL activities. In conclusion, students reported that the enjoyed the process, felt they were thinking differently (outside the box), they used communication and teamwork to arrive at a differential diagnosis, and they gained confidence and felt they stepped up as leaders during the PBL activities.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The purpose of the study was to explore the influence of teaching evidence based practice on critical thinking for sophomore level athletic training students. A mixed method approach was utilized to best understand didactic and clinical use of critical thinking. The California Critical Thinking Dispositions Inventory (Facione & Facione, 2010) and Holistic Critical Thinking Scoring Rubrics (Facione & Facione, 2009) were resources for quantitative analysis. Qualitative information was collected through field observation, in-class assignments and stimulated recall interviews. Data were collected and analyzed succinctly. Microscopic, open, axial and selective coding was performed to determine emerging themes and categories. A triangulation design with a convergence variant model was used to holistically analyze data. No significant effects were found between groups for the Holistic Critical Thinking Scoring Rubric or California Critical Thinking Dispositions Inventory. Qualitative analysis revealed a central theme: development of clinical problem solving. Subcategories to emerge were schemas and influences. Implications include the ability for educators to influence the development of clinical reasoning in athletic training.

Book excerpt: Core Concepts in Athletic Training and Therapy provides a balanced introduction to the knowledge, skills, and clinical abilities that span the profession of athletic training. Students in athletic training, coaching, or other health care fields will find current information covering the breadth of theory and application of athletic training, including evidence-based practice, prevention and health promotion, clinical examination and diagnosis, acute and emergency care, therapeutic interventions, and health care administration. It also presents advanced topics of pathophysiology and psychological response to sport injury to better prepare students for continued study. Compared to other introductory athletic training texts, Core Concepts in Athletic Training and Therapy is the only text that aligns with the newest athletic training education competencies from the National Athletic Trainers’ Association (2011). Written by a team of respected athletic training educators with experience at the professional and collegiate levels, the text breaks new ground by condensing key concepts to a comprehensive level while not overwhelming students with content that will be addressed in depth in advanced courses. Numerous features assist students in learning the fundamentals: • Each of the six parts opens with a discussion of the competencies that are covered in that part and concludes with a reference list of those competencies by description and number, making it easy to monitor the knowledge required. • A companion web resource contains 41 clinical proficiency exercises, carefully chosen to complement the introductory level of the text and align with required educational objectives. The modules may be completed online or printed, and cross-references at the end of each chapter guide students to the appropriate modules to apply the chapter content. • Case studies sprinkled throughout the text demonstrate real-world situations and include critical thinking questions that underscore principles of rehabilitation and exercise. • Full-color photographs depict specific conditions and techniques, giving students an accurate picture of real practice. • For instructors, a complete set of ancillaries assists in preparing and presenting lectures, leading class discussion, and planning assignments and assessments. In addition, Core Concepts in Athletic Training and Therapy is the first text to offer a complete chapter on evidence-based practice, the newest educational competency required of entry-level athletic trainers by the NATA. The rest of the text introduces general information about life as an athletic trainer, such as training, education, licensure, certification, employment opportunities, and the roles in a sports medicine team. The core of the text then focuses on required knowledge and skills related to injury prevention, injury recognition and classification (including region-specific examination strategies, basic objective tests, physical exam strategies, and injury mechanisms), acute care, therapeutic interventions, and the role of pharmaceuticals in the healing process. To round out the text, it addresses health care administration and discusses strategies for the management of athletic training programs. With learning features and a web resource that integrate clinical learning into an introductory course, Core Concepts in Athletic Training and Therapy is the essential resource for current and future athletic trainers. Long after its first use, it will prove a valuable reference for athletic training students as they progress through the curriculum, prepare for certificiation, and begin careers in the profession. Core Concepts in Athletic Training and Therapy is part of Human Kinetics' Athletic Training Education Series. Featuring the work of respected authorities in athletic training, this collection of outstanding textbooks, each with its own supporting instructional resources, parallels and expounds on the content areas in the accreditation standards of the NATA Education Council.
