Observational learning plays an important role in surgical skills training, following the traditional
model of learning from expertise. Recent findings have, however, highlighted the benefit
of observing not only expert performance but also error-strewn performance. The aim of
this study was to determine which model (novice vs. expert) would lead to the greatest benefits
when learning robotically assisted surgical skills
