In 2017, all 157 seventh- to tenth-semester dental students at a dental school in Germany were asked to repeat the same written examination performed at the end of the preclinical course in the sixth semester. The examinations consisted of 30 multiple-choice questions covering factual and procedural knowledge. The percentage of correctly answered questions per exam and differences in correct answers between the original examination and the re-examination (per question) were analyzed. Students were also asked to self-rate their percentage of correctly answered questions and their knowledge in various disciplines of operative dentistry at the times of the original examination and the re-examination. After exclusions, data were analyzed for 129 students, for a participation rate of 82%. For the seventh- and tenth-semester students, the results on the original examination and the re-examination were not significantly different, while the eighth- and ninth-semester students performed significantly better on the original examination than the re-examination. In all semesters, procedural knowledge remained stable between the original examination and the re-examination, while factual knowledge decreased slightly. Their performance on the original examination was underestimated by the eighth- and ninth-semester students. All the students underestimated their performance on the re-examination. Students mostly rated their knowledge level significantly higher on the original examination than on the re-examination. Overall, this study found that factual and procedural knowledge gained in a preclinical course in operative dentistry was not increased during the clinical dental curriculum."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.21815/jde.018.092"],["dc.identifier.pmid","30173190"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/57560"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/65678"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.relation.eissn","1930-7837"],["dc.relation.issn","0022-0337"],["dc.relation.orgunit","Poliklinik für Präventive Zahnmedizin, Parodontologie und Kariologie"],["dc.subject.gro","assessment"],["dc.subject.gro","dental education"],["dc.subject.gro","operative dentistry"],["dc.subject.gro","self-assessment"],["dc.title","Dental Students' Factual and Procedural Knowledge Retention in Operative Dentistry in a Clinical Dental Curriculum"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
