Table 4 Comparison of mean percentage scores on OSCE and written test between intervention and control group

	N	Observed mean % score (SD)	ANOVA	Adjusted mean % score (SE)	ANCOVA
OSCE
Intervention	19	0.669 (0.053)	F = 3.603, p = 0.066	0.664 (0.012)^a	F = 1.884, p = 0.179^b
Control	19	0.635 (0.056)	F = 3.603, p = 0.066	0.640 (0.012)^a	F = 1.884, p = 0.179^b
Written test
Intervention	19	0.532 (0.090)	F = 2.674, p = 0.111	0.525 (0.020)^c	F = 1.395, p = 0.245^d
Control	19	0.484 (0.094)	F = 2.674, p = 0.111	0.491 (0.020)^c	F = 1.395, p = 0.245^d
