About this trial
This study examines whether physical therapy faculty can reliably and feasibly use the Lasater Clinical Judgment Rubric adapted for physical therapy (LCJR-PT) to score students' clinical judgment during a recorded simulation experience. Multiple trained faculty raters will independently score the same student videos, and the level of agreement between raters will be measured. Faculty will also report how long scoring takes and their perceptions of the rubric's usefulness.
