Can watching themselves on video make therapy students better?
NCT ID NCT07817771
First seen Sep 14, 2026 · Last updated Sep 15, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study examines whether adding video-assisted feedback to oral feedback improves clinical learning for undergraduate occupational therapy students during pediatric training. Students receive either oral feedback alone or oral feedback plus a review of a 10-minute video of their own clinical performance. Researchers measure clinical performance with a 10-item assessment and track anxiety levels to see whether video review supports learning and reflection.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Video-assisted feedback, where students review a recording of their own clinical session alongside oral feedback from a teacher
- What this could lead to
- If it works, occupational therapy programs could add video review to clinical teaching to help students reflect on their performance and improve faster.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small study of 20 students in one training program, so the results may not apply to other students or settings. Watching yourself on video can also make some students more anxious, which could offset any learning benefit.
