Mean (95% CI) motivation after participation in either ISS or OSS. Analysis comprised a comparison of the mean IMI and the mean of the ISS and OSS groups
| Simulation intervention | IMI mean (1 week after)* |
|---|---|
| Interest/enjoyment | |
| ISS | 5.2 (4.9 to 5.5) |
| OSS | 5.3 (5.1 to 5.5) |
| p=0.72 | |
| Perceived competence | |
| ISS | 5.1 (4.8 to 5.4) |
| OSS | 4.9 (4.7 to 5.1) |
| p=0.24 | |
| Perceived choice | |
| ISS | 5.8 (5.6 to 6.1) |
| OSS | 5.5 (5.2 to 5.9) |
| p=0.15 | |
| Pressure tension (reversed) | |
| ISS | 2.8 (2.5 to 3.1) |
| OSS | 2.9 (2.6 to 3.3) |
| p=0.65 | |

IMI, Intrinsic Motivation Inventory (range: 1–7); ISS, in situ simulation; OSS, off-site simulation.
