Materials matter: Understanding the importance of sociomaterial assemblages for OSCE candidate performance.

Our novel empirical study extends previous conceptual work by illustrating wide-ranging sociomaterial assemblages influencing OSCE candidate performance. Further research is now needed employing sociomaterial approaches to further elucidate sociomaterial entanglements in diverse OSCEs. We encourage OSCE stakeholders to become more attuned to the productive nature of materials within all stages of OSCE design and implementation.
