Title: HALOS AND HORNS IN THE ASSESSMENT OF UNDERGRADUATE MEDICAL STUDENTS: A CONSISTENCY-BASED APPROACH

Paging: Volume 3 (2008) nr. 2 pages 116-128

Contents: The authors introduce a consistency-based approach to detecting examiner bias. On comparing intra-class correlation coefficients on transformed data for supervisor continuous performance and report marks (ICC1*) with those for supervisor continuous performance and second marker report marks (ICC2*), a highly significant difference was obtained for both the entire cohort (ICC1* = .72, ICC2* = .30, F = 2.47, p < .0005 (N = 1085)) and the subgroup with high supervisor ratings for continuous performance (ICC1* = .62, ICC2* = .24, F = 1.97, p < .0005 (n = 952)). A strong halo effect was detected and preliminary evidence was obtained for the presence of a strong horn effect for students with lower scores, thus providing a basis for future research.
