Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

ABSTRACT: Academies highlight the educational mission that is often second to clinical and basic science scholarship on health professions campuses. They help bridge the gap between faculty development and continuing professional development. Owing to their popularity, academies have proliferated across the United States and Canada during the past 3 decades. Yet the evidence of the extent to which academies have had impact on their organizations remains largely underdeveloped. In this article, the authors used logic modeling as a framework to align the research mission, programming, and longitudinal goals of the Duke Academy for Health Professions, Education and Academic Development across the span of a decade. Furthermore, we used bibliometric analysis as a program evaluation tool. Through three different case examples, we share how bibliometrics may be used to track faculty publications in health professions education journals and to assess the impact of an academy's investment on its members and the institution at large. Finally, we illustrate that longitudinal implementation of scholarship and grants programming can be an effective strategy for fostering the development of health professions education research and encouraging scholarly innovation.

Direct model labels (unvalidated)

Per-model category and study-design labels from the labeling rounds. They are machine output, unvalidated, and the disagreement between models ships as data. No study design here is MEDLINE-validated yet.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
