Adrian Anthony | Understanding response characteristics of novice surgical trainees to uncertainty |
Bryan Ashman | Why do old dogs learn new tricks: what motivates experienced surgeons to learn new surgical techniques? With Human Research Ethics Committee approval, we carried out semi-structured interviews with each surgeon and trainee separately, soon after the pair had completed a training operation observed by an experienced surgeon educator.

Surgeon threshold | An individual surgeon's willingness to allow a trainee to operate on a patient, that depends on several factors: (1) the teacher's self-confidence to salvage any trainee-created complications during the operation (2) experience as a teacher improves the anticipation and prevention of common trainee mistakes. This "ACCESS" is affected by "external constraints" that are beyond an individual's control, multi-factorial "surgeon threshold" to allow trainee operating rights, types of "teaching methods" used and the prevailing "surgical culture" that designates surgeon responsibility for the patient and expectations of the trainee.

Access to surgeon's expertise | When a trainee participates in an operation, he/she has the chance to view the surgeon's choice of different operative options and be exposed to each surgeon's repertoire of operative techniques. [Extracted from the article] |
