Abstract
This study inspects the potential relationships between performance-, and

mastery-orientated digital feedback, and perceptions of fairness, and relevance of

feedback received during simulation training. We also included self-efficacy as a

possible moderating variable. Using established theory and research on the

construct of performance-, and mastery-oriented feedback, fairness and relevance

and self-efficacy, we derived at 7 testable hypotheses that are exposed to

empirical examination. We tested our hypotheses using a quasi-experimental

posttest design with two conditions, where the digital feedback provided to the

trainees by the simulator was manipulated. One group received performanceoriented

digital feedback, and the other received mastery-oriented digital

feedback.

Our results indicated a positive relationship between self-efficacy and

perceptions of feedback relevance. Otherwise our hypotheses received no support,

as statistically significant differences were not found, and we can therefore not

make any causal inference about the relationship between performance and

mastery oriented digital feedback and perceptions of fairness and relevance of

feedback during training. Patterns did emerge from our data, indicating slightly

more positive perceptions of feedback in the PODF group, compared to the

MODF group, however not at a significant level.

Possible explanations for the non-significant findings are discussed, where

the lack of an adequately sized sample, non -randomized assignment to the

experiment groups and operationalization of the two conditions of the experiment,

are brought forth as important, unfavorable factors. A potential practical

implication of this thesis is how feedback might be distributed in organizations,

and a potential theoretical implication is presenting a novel combination of the

included variables in hypothesizing certain relationships, in light of a

computerized simulator.
