surgical residents through all years of training

Surgical residents will use the SOAR Webapp, a video-based surgical education platform, to review intracorporeal laparoscopic procedure recordings and receive structured feedback on technical skills and surgical decision-making. The intervention includes post-operative video review with an expert surgeon and automated analytic outputs generated by computer vision algorithms, including performance metrics and annotated video segments. The intervention is used for educational and training purposes only and does not alter patient care.

This is a survey completed by surgical trainees following use of the SOAR Web Application. The survey evaluates trainee perceptions of:

• Engagement in deliberate practice behaviors
• Accuracy and usefulness of operative performance assessments (including psychomotor skill, tissue handling, operative progress, exposure quality, dissection quality, and error detection)
• Accuracy and usefulness of pre-populated operative steps
• Impact of the SOAR Web Application on the frequency and quality of engagement with attending surgeons
• Overall usability and perceived challenge of the SOAR Web Application

All survey items are measured using a 3-point Likert scale (Never, Sometimes, Often), with higher scores indicating greater perceived frequency, accuracy, usefulness, or educational impact, depending on the item. Survey responses are analyzed at the individual item level and summarized as frequencies and proportions. The maximum score is 30, minimum 10.
