我们使用三组被录取的牙科学生的回顾数据集，测量了选定的学生属性、学习类型测量、Myers-Briggs类型指标和牙科入学测试分测试在国家牙科考试(NBDE)第一部分和第二部分中预测通过的程度。性别、Myers-Briggs类型指标以及牙科入学测试分测试的学业平均和生物学被发现预测通过NBDE第一部分性别，Myers-Briggs类型指标(考虑感觉)，研究发现，牙科入学考试中关于阅读和生物的部分测试可以预测学生能否通过NBDE第二部分考试。学习类型测试并不能预测他们是否会通过NBDE第一部分或第二部分考试。这项研究对提高教职员工对学生的能力倾向和认知属性的认识、对教学和招生过程都有一定的意义。
Using a deidentified retrospective dataset of three cohorts of matriculated dental students, we measured the degree to which selected student attributes, the Learning Type Measure, the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, and Dental Admission Test subtests scores predicted passage on the National Board Dental Examination (NBDE), Parts I and II. Gender, Myers-Briggs Type Indicators, and the Dental Admission Test subtests for academic average and biology were found to be predictive of passing the NBDE Part I. Gender, a Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (thinking over feeling), and the Dental Admission Test subtests on reading and biology were found to be predictive of passing the NBDE Part II. The Learning Type Measure was not found to be predictive of passing the NBDE Part I or Part II. This study holds implications for heightening faculty members' awareness of students' aptitude and cognitive attributes, for teaching, and for the admissions process.
