W8 Enhancing authentic SP based OSCE stations: harnessing techniques and technologies from the discipline of simulation
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?Health professional researchers and educators who design, deliver and implement OSCEs and anyone who is keen to develop more authentic SP based OSCE stations.Introductory, Intermediate and Advanced levels catered forBackgroundObjective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs) are a widely used form of assessment in health professional education. In their summative form, they strive to provide objective, reliable measurements of behavioural competency skills. As a constructed phenomenon, they aim to simulate aspects of real clinical practice, but often fall short in terms of authenticity. Many OSCEs stations are socially situated activities, where candidates interact with a ‘patient’. The ‘patient’ can take the form of a real patient or a simulated participant (SP). However, there are growing concerns regarding this manufactured form of assessment. Firstly, real patients are increasingly not partaking in OSCEs. Secondly, educators often default to assessing what is easy rather than what is challenging to examine e.g. uncertainty, ethics and interpersonal skills. Lastly, if assessment does drive learning – are OSCEs driving more test performance rather than clinical performance? Many have called for greater authenticity in OSCEs, while retaining reliability and cost effectiveness.Intended learning objectivesAfter this workshop participants should be able toDescribe the ‘life cycle’ of developing an OSCE station.Identify important scenarios that are ‘challenging’ to authentically frame in an SP OSCE context and permit repeated candidate examinations.Offer techniques, grounded in the discipline of simulation that can help to realise and deliver ‘challenging’ SP OSCE stations.Translate this knowledge into their own educational practice.Structure of workshopGeneral introductions, ‘ground rules’ and overview of session.Introduction to assessment of clinical competency, with focus on the OSCE and characteristics of ‘best practice’ in assessment.Provide an overview of the ‘lifecycle’ of developing an OSCE station.Buzz group activity regarding difficult SP OSCE stations to write.‘Think, pair and share’ activity regarding simulation based techniques and technologies to assist in delivering authentic SP OSCE stations.

Seja autêntico! Analisando o gerenciamento de imagem de nanoinfluenciadores digitais
Objetivo:Este estudo teve como objetivo compreender como os nanoinfluenciadores gerenciam de suas imagens nas mídias sociais em prol da autenticidade.Método:Esta pesquisa tem uma abordagem qualitativa, com dados obtidos por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas e analisados com base na Análise Temática.Resultados:Foi observado que o principal objetivo dos nanoinfluenciadores é estabelecer reputação a partir de estratégias de desenvolvimento de conteúdos orgânicos e estruturantes que potencializem a naturalidade, expertise e acessibilidade. Reforçando sua autenticidade, esses nanoinfluenciadores têm controle criativo sobre o conteúdo que desenvolvem, exteriorizando suas identidades e gerando congruência entre mensagem e remetente. A invasão das marcas em seus perfis, portanto, é mínima, de modo que são justificáveis pela paixão dos influenciadores pelos produtos, contribuindo para uma construção coerente de narrativas.Contribuições teóricas:Identificou-se que os nanoinfluenciadores desenvolvem uma autenticidade de conto de fadas mediante seus endossos às marcas. No entanto, ao exporem a sua própria marca, ou seja, os serviços que oferecem, a marca humana que são, esses indivíduos procuram a autenticidade absoluta, baseada na transparência e organicidade, na semelhança e indissociabilidade. Esse é um avanço considerável na literatura, pois identificamos que os caminhos da autenticidade podem ser diferentes a partir da parte interessada à qual se destina (marcas ou seguidores).Originalidade/relevância:Foi proposto um modelo teórico composto de cinco elementos que caracterizam o gerenciamento da imagem dos nanoinfluenciadores. Trata-se de um movimento inédito de pesquisa para identificar os constructos que formam a gestão da imagem em mídias sociais realizada por agentes de considerável influência social. Acredita-se que tais elementos são motivos norteadores para a atuação dos influenciadores, de modo que a variação nos tipos de influenciadores afetará as características contidas em tais elementos.

Disentangling the meanings of brand authenticity: The entity-referent correspondence framework of authenticity
Although marketing researchers agree that brand authenticity has various meanings, little consensus exists concerning the number of meanings and what those meanings entail. This paper addresses this lack of clarity in the literature by introducing the Entity-Referent Correspondence (ERC) Framework of Authenticity. The ERC Framework provides an overarching definition of authenticity—a consumer’s perception of the degree to which a supposed authentic entity corresponds with or is “true to” something else, which we label a referent. The ERC Framework also suggests three types of authenticity—true-to-ideal, true-to-fact, and true-to-self—that are consistent with the general definition yet are distinct. Each type may manifest in a variety of ways in a brand context, suggesting that brand authenticity is not a singular concept. The framework also proposes nomological nets that explain how consumers form perceptions of each type, how the types lead to managerially relevant outcomes (e.g., expected quality, trust), and how the types affect each other. This research advances the literature on brand authenticity by offering three types of conceptual contributions as identified by MacInnis (2011): integrating, differentiating, and delineating.

State Authenticity
State authenticity is the sense that one is currently in alignment with one's true or real self. We discuss state authenticity as seen by independent raters, describe its phenomenology, outline its triggers, consider its well-being and behavioral implications, and sketch out a cross-disciplinary research agenda.

Authenticity & tourism : materialities, perceptions, experiences
Debates around the concept of authenticity date to the earliest theories of tourism, as scholars attempted to understand motivations for traveling away from 'home' and touristic experiences of places far 'away'. Over time, theories of authenticity have burgeoned from epistemological to ontological notions drawing a broad range of philosophers into tourism research. This edited volume features chapters that engage with key debates about authenticity - its materiality, how it is perceived, and how it is experienced. The book is comprised of four sections thematically organized around popular trends in authenticity research in tourism, making this volume appropriate as both a comprehensive text and as individual investigations. Authenticity & Tourism: Materialities, Perceptions, Experiences includes chapters that engage with the pragmatic and the theoretical, including conversations on marketing and the production of tourism attractions, examinations of the constructive nature of authenticity, and the politics of authentication processes. Also included are contributions that revisit technological trends in tourism and advance debates of authenticity in souvenirs, photographs, and simulated experiences, as well as those more firmly anchored in the theoretical, pushing boundaries and establishing paths for future research. Across these chapters, the authors employ a range of methodologies, from autoethnography to photo and food-elicitation combinations to discourse and content analyses. Set against a backdrop of truly global case studies, this collection exemplifies the multiple facets of authenticity research in tourism.

Serving the Self : Authenticity, Performance and Emotional Labour
This thesis builds on Arlie Hochschild's foundational work on emotional labour by understanding it as work which requires certain traits and characteristics to be performed before an audience. Accordingly, it argues for the contribution that theatre and performance studies can make to analysis of such work. Using primary data gathered through observation of workplaces, interviews with employees and analysis of managerial literature, the thesis examines the theatrical and performative influence on both emotional labour, and its study, in three ways. Firstly, it considers the way in which notions of selfhood and emotional authenticity are being fostered in hospitality and leisure workplaces. Secondly, it examines the forms of management used on emotional labour in these contexts. Finally, it turns to the role of the consumer, or audience, in these commercial performances. Where Hochschild draws on Constantin Stanislavski, specifically in relation to the concepts of deep and surface acting, this research offers both a critique of her theory and an alternative approach to the comparison between professional actors and emotional labourers. It presents ahistorical account of actor training in the Stanislavskian realist tradition, and argues for new ways of thinking about its relationship to ascendent forms of work under neoliberalism. In particular, the research highlights the direction and management of emotional labour via forms of quantification and measurement which are tied to the concept of character. Whilst arguing for the continued centrality of wage labour to our analysis, following a Marxist framework, this research also argues for the extension of the critique of the alienating effects of emotional labour into social relations more broadly. This is addressed via attention to how the disciplinary functions identified in the management of emotional labour become offset onto consumers, whose behaviour is shaped according to the corporate dictates of 'authenticity' which increasingly characterise service encounters.
