Portable Endoscopic Simulator for Urologic Training: A Face/Content and Construct Validity Study
Journal of Endourology, 2022Mastering a surgical skill requires experience and repetition, yet opportunities for surgical trainees to gain real experience are variable and limited by case load. Surgical simulators have emerged in an attempt to overcome these limitations. However, the few currently available skills simulators for flexible endoscopy are costly, have limited ...

Survey Design on the Perceptions of Automated Vehicles (AVs): Face and Content Validity
The American Journal of Occupational Therapy, 2020Abstract Date Presented 03/26/20 AVs may provide numerous societal benefits, including reducing road fatalities, improving participation, and providing equity of services to the medically at-risk and economically disadvantaged. However, societal benefits will not occur if individuals do not accept and adopt this technology.
