Description
Summary:An abstract of a study by Miller et al determining communication aspects using social network analysis for on-campus and off campus clinical placement sites of undergraduate athletic training students is presented. The program director (PD) and clinical education coordinator (CEC) are the most central figures in both on campus and off-campus clinical placement sites (CPS), with the PD communicating 32% more than the CEC for on campus and equal communication for off campus CPS. On-campus communications between all participants occurred 9% more than their off-campus counterparts. The highest density score (.24) was found for the off-campus CPS regarding student expectations. There was zero reciprocity in regards to student formal evaluation in both CPS.
