Learning Diagnostic Reasoning Through AI

This experiment aims to determine the effect of AI-generated questions and feedback on diagnostic reasoning in preclinical medical students. Main Research Question: What is the effect of AI-generated questions and feedback on diagnostic reasoning skills in preclinical medical students?

This study involves a two groups: 1. Intervention Group: Medical students will receive AI-generated questions and feedback related to five abdominal pain diagnoses. 2. Control Group: Medical students will not receive any intervention. Participants in the intervention group will undergo structured learning sessions consisted of AI-generated questions and feedback as a spaced repetition. Control group will not attend these sessions; they only receive their usual medical training. The diagnostic reasoning performance will be assessed using a video-based Objective Structured Clinical Examination: OSVE (Objective Structured Video Examination) where videos of "patient-doctor encounters are shown to students and questions related to the video clip are asked. Written answers are marked in a standardised manner."
