In Teaching and Learning in Medicine, vol. 20, no. 2, an error appeared in the abstract for “How Much Do Differences in Medical Schools Influence Student Performance? A Longitudinal Study Employing Hierarchical Linear Modeling” by Kent Hecker and Claudio Violato. The publisher regrets the error. The sentences should have read as follows:
The variance accounted for in student performance by the student covariates ranged from 27.58% to 36.51% for Step 1, 16.37% to 24.48% for Step 2 and 19.22% to 25.32% for Step 3. The proportion of the between-school variance that was accounted for by the student covariates ranged between 81.22% and 88.26% for Step 1, 48.44% and 79.77% for Step 2, and 68.41% and 80.78% for Step 3.
