Table 2 Change in the specific categories and behavioral descriptors of unprofessional behavior after implementing Casper. The numbers associated with behavioral descriptors are more than the number of residents exhibiting unprofessional behavior as more than one behavior was exhibited by some residents. The 4I framework and the original tabular format of unprofessional behaviors is used with permission from Dr. M van der Vossen. As described in the Methods section, two behavioral descriptors were added to the Introspection category (nervous exhaustion and none-to-five mentality) and no residents exhibited these behaviors in either cohort
