MethodMedline, ERIC, and the Research and Development Resource Base in Continuing Medical Education were used to search for articles focused on physicians' competence, physician assessment, and continuing competence.“Age” was used as a keyword in all searches and articles were included if they made reference to the relationship between age and performance. After a series of articles had been identified, the reference lists were examined and experts in this field were consulted to find relevant papers that had been missed. In parallel, a similar search was performed using PsychLit to identify articles that focused on age-related changes in cognitive processing. Articles were excluded if they focused on clinical conditions unless they allowed insight into the psychological mechanisms affected by pre-senile aging.Results
