Abstract
Team objectively structured bed side assessment (TOSBA) is one of the tools used by medical students to assess teamwork. The aim of this study was to measure the team scores and to correlate team performance scores with individual performance in final year medical students using TOSBA. It was a quasi-experimental study including 100 students, divided into 22 teams comprising of 4-6 members. TOSBA sessions were setup for module assessment of teams. Their individual and team performance scores were measured. Correlation between individual and team scores was calculated using Pearson correlatio n test. Results of the study showed seven (7) high scoring, eight (8) medium scoring and seven (7) low scoring teams. Team scores had a statistically significant correlation with individual scores (p<0.05). Reliability of the tool was 0.58 with a high convergent validity. TOSBA is a tool that can be used for individual and team assessment during clerkships.
