Abstract
Introduction: Matching into an orthopaedic surgery residency consistently reinforces a competitive landscape, challenging the applicants and programs. A group of orthopaedic surgery residency programs implemented video prompts asking applicants to respond to a standardized question by video recording. Assessing the impact of this video on the decision to offer an interview can help guide programs and applicants through the interview process.
Methods: Twenty residency applications to one institution requiring video prompts were randomly selected and deidentified. Thirteen experienced faculty from various orthopaedic surgery programs served as applicant reviewers. The reviewers evaluated the electronic residency application service (ERAS) application and determined whether they would grant the applicant an interview ("no," "maybe," or "yes") before and after watching the video prompt. The reviewer also scored the impact of the applicant's dress, facial presentation, and video background distractions on their evaluation of the video. Multivariable logistic regressions were conducted using a group of applicants where interview status was not impacted by the video compared with the group of applicants where the interview status changed after video review. An alpha value of 0.05 was used to define significance.
Results: The video prompt impacted the decision to offer an interview 29.3% of the time; 15.8% were switched from "yes" or "maybe" to "no" and 13.5% were switched from "no" or "maybe" to "yes." For the positively impacted applicants, facial presentation score was significantly higher (P = 0.005). No recorded variables were associated with decreased chance of interview.
Discussion: Video prompts impacted the decision to offer interviews to orthopaedic surgery applicants approximately one-third of the time, with a similar number of applicants being positively and negatively impacted. Facial presentation score was associated with increased chance of interview, and no variables were associated with decreased chance of interview. Thus, the answer to the videos presumably negatively impacted applicants.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons was established in the fall of 1993 by the Academy in response to its membership’s demand for a clinical review journal. Two issues were published the first year, followed by six issues yearly from 1994 through 2004. In September 2005, JAAOS began publishing monthly issues.
Each issue includes richly illustrated peer-reviewed articles focused on clinical diagnosis and management. Special features in each issue provide commentary on developments in pharmacotherapeutics, materials and techniques, and computer applications.
