Clinical Optometry Competency Program · 4 Scored DimensionsIllustrative cohort data
| Calibrated items | 52 |
| Scored framework | 4 dimensions — findings, communication, referral, conclusions |
| Misconception tags tracked | 6 (OPT-01 through OPT-06) |
| Audit method | Preregistered synthetic-respondent preflight |
| Evidence class | Provisional |
| Papers | Public, under journal review |
Provisional means preflight, not validation — the class flips on real-cohort data. All numbers below are illustrative until the evidence class is promoted.
| Dimension | Accuracy | Flags | Trend |
|---|---|---|---|
| What you found | 78% | 6 | ▲ |
| What you told the patient | 83% | 3 | ◆ |
| When you referred | 64% | 12 | ▼ |
| What you concluded | 71% | 8 | ◆ |
Flag threshold: students scoring below 70% on the dimension across completed scenarios. Trend computed over a rolling 3-scenario window.
| Tag | Label | Confronted | Resolved | Active |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| OPT-01 | acuity-equals-health | 85% | 54% | 3 |
| OPT-02 | more-minus-is-sharper | 68% | 61% | 2 |
| OPT-03 | red-eye-is-conjunctivitis | 72% | 58% | 3 |
| OPT-04 | pressure-equals-glaucoma | 79% | 47% | 4 |
| OPT-05 | child-cannot-be-tested | 58% | 52% | 3 |
| OPT-06 | eyes-in-isolation | 64% | 44% | 4 |
Confrontation rate = % of cohort who met this trap in at least one scenario. Resolution rate = % who corrected after confrontation. Active = students still holding. Click a row to see the canonical definition.
Status thresholds — On Track: module score ≥ 75% and no more than 1 unresolved misconception. Flagged: score 65-74% or 2 unresolved. At Risk: score < 65% or 3+ unresolved.
Every student decision writes a hash-chained trace event. The chain is recomputable by any auditor — not a log after the fact, but a signed record at the moment of commitment. Verify integrity from the expert route or the audit API.
Certificate in Clinical Optometry Competency
The certificate will state: “This certifies that [name] has demonstrated the competencies below, as evidenced by committed decisions in scored scenarios across 13 psychometric modules and 15 clinical scenarios, audited by hash-chained trace.”
Supplement language: “This certificate supplements a Doctor of Optometry program. It is not a license. The instrument uses 52 calibrated items scored across four dimensions: what you found, what you told the patient, when you referred, and what you concluded. Evidence class at issuance: provisional — preflight, not validation. The class flips only on real-cohort data.”
This is an education dashboard. It contains no clinical advice. All data shown is illustrative until the evidence class is promoted on real-cohort data.
