Resumo(s)
Dear Editor Among the original contributions in the recent paper from Hornos et al. (2024), the introduction of cognitive diagnostic modelling (CDM) as an alternative to unidimensional item response theory (IRT) for evaluating clinical reasoning skills was a truly innovative step. Unidimensional IRT analysis of the data collected by Hornos et al. (2024) revealed a low percentage of explained variance, echoing a previous concern about its inherent reductionism (Collares, 2023). While IRT is suitable for ranking students and adjusting scores to different difficulty levels, it falls short in providing nuanced insights compared to CDM. CDM’s ability to offer skill-specific feedback and accommodate the multidimensional complexity of clinical reasoning makes it a compelling choice.
