title: Reliability (generalizability) of the Maastricht Skills Test.
abstract: This study investigated the reproducibility of scores on the University of Limburg Skills Test, using data drawn from tests administered to medical students in all years of training during 1984-85, 1985-86, and 1986-87. Generalizability analyses indicated that, while inter-rater reliability is good, a minimum of three to four hours of testing time is required to obtain reproducible scores due to content-specificity of examinee performance.
