Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
The first research question, on effectiveness of the AAA assessment tool, will be measured by analysis of video-recorded consultations with simulated patients: the GP resident-patient communication in PC will be determined by the Roter Interaction Analysis System (RIAS), to which a study-specific ‘AAA’ rating subscale will be added. All participating GP residents will be video-taped (consultation with a simulated patient) at the start of the course (before the start of the intervention) and at the end of the course (6 months later).	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
1. Feasibility of the AAA programme is measured by monitoring the active participation, by registration of learning effects 2. Satisfaction with the AAA programme is measured by evaluation forms (GP residents, GP trainers and staff) 3. Barriers are explored by semi-structured interviews with GP residents	—
