Rating and assessment tools must be accurate, specific, reliable, and relevant to the skill being assessed. Global rating scales and similar subjective tools are not well suited to the evaluation of procedural skill. The objective assessment of errors has been shown to be the most discriminatory when evaluating surgical proficiency. Objective benchmarks are valuable for summary feedback and for informing the trainee of specific deficiencies. A proficiency benchmark should be based on the operative performance of a cohort that is reasonably homogeneous and whose observed skill is reflective of the designation assigned, typically \u201cexperienced.\u201d Time and repetition\u2010based formats are substantially less effective than a proficiency\u2010based progression curriculum. Construct validity assessments based on measures of efficiency (time, path motion, etc.) are not as meaningful as those based on objective skill metrics. The demonstration of transfer validity is challenging and demands careful objective assessments that are similar for pre\u2010 and postcourse operating room evaluation if we are to draw valid conclusions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/arj.70680","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,16]],"date-time":"2026-10-16T09:19:41Z","timestamp":1792142381000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["<i>Editorial Commentary<\/i>\n                    : Accurately Assessing Surgeon Skill: Yardstick or Caliper?"],"prefix":"10.1002","author":[{"given":"Richard L.","family":"Angelo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"ProOrtho Clinic  Kirkland Washington U.S.A."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,10,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","first-page":"xx","article-title":"Fundamentals of arthroscopic surgery training program shows transfer validity through enhanced operative arthroscopic performance","author":"Nicandri G","year":"2026","journal-title":"Arthroscopy"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_1","first-page":"44","article-title":"A technique for the measurement of attitudes","volume":"140","author":"Likert R","year":"1932","journal-title":"Arch Psychol"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","first-page":"231","article-title":"Quantifying test\u2010retest reliability using the intraclass correlation coefficient and the SEM","volume":"19","author":"Weir JP","year":"2005","journal-title":"J Strength Cond Res"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"284","DOI":"10.1037\/1040-3590.6.4.284","article-title":"Guidelines, criteria, and rules of thumb for evaluating normed and standardized assessment instruments in psychology","volume":"6","author":"Cicchetti DV","year":"1994","journal-title":"Psychol Asses"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2191","DOI":"10.1016\/j.arthro.2018.02.007","article-title":"Inter\u2010rater reliability for metrics scored in binary fashion\u2010Performance assessment for an arthroscopic Bankart repair","volume":"34","author":"Gallagher AG","year":"2018","journal-title":"Arthroscopy"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1229","DOI":"10.1177\/0363546513483535","article-title":"The arthroscopic surgical skill evaluation tool (ASSET)","volume":"41","author":"Koehler RL","year":"2013","journal-title":"Am J Sports Med"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e18","DOI":"10.2106\/JBJS.17.01512","article-title":"Resident surgical skills web\u2010based evaluation: A comparison of 2 assessment tools","volume":"101","author":"Van Heest AE","year":"2019","journal-title":"J Bone Joint Surg Am"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"887","DOI":"10.1136\/bmj.318.7188.887","article-title":"Assessing operative skill needs to become more objective","volume":"318","author":"Darzi A","year":"1999","journal-title":"BMJ"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1156","DOI":"10.1016\/j.arthro.2019.09.025","article-title":"Global rating scales for the assessment of arthroscopic surgical skills: A systematic review","volume":"36","author":"Velazquez\u2010Pimentel D","year":"2020","journal-title":"Arthroscopy"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1525","DOI":"10.1007\/s00464-003-0035-4","article-title":"Fundamental principles of validation and reliability: Rigorous science for the assessment of surgical education and training","volume":"17","author":"Gallagher AG","year":"2003","journal-title":"Surg Endosc"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_12_1","volume-title":"Fundamentals of Surgical Simulation: Principles and Practices","author":"Gallagher AG","year":"2011"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"364","DOI":"10.1097\/01.sla.0000151982.85062.80","article-title":"Virtual reality simulation for the operating room;
