Studies about quality in thesis and investigation projects in biomedical sciences are unusual, but very important in university teaching because is necessary to improve the quality elaboration of the thesis. The objectives the study were to determine the project's quality of thesis in our department, according to the fulfillment of the scientific methodology and to establish, if it exists, a relation between the global quality of the project and the statistical used resources.
Descriptive study of 273 thesis projects performed between 1995-2002 in surgery department of the Zaragoza University. The review realized for 15 observers that they analyzed 28 indicators of every project. Giving a value to each of the indicators, the projects qualified in a scale from 1 to 10 according to the quality in the fulfillment of the scientific methodology.
The mean of the project's quality was 5.53 (D.E: 1.77). In 13.9% the thesis projects was concluded with the reading of the work. The three indicators of statistical used resources had a significant difference with the value of the quality projects.
The quality of the statistical resources is very important when a project of thesis wants to be realized by good methodology, because it assures to come to certain conclusions. In our study we have thought that more of the third part of the variability in the quality of the project of thesis explains for three statistical above-mentioned articles.
关于生物医学科学领域论文及研究项目质量的研究并不常见,但在大学教学中非常重要,因为提高论文撰写质量很有必要。本研究的目的是根据科学方法的完成情况来确定我们系论文项目的质量,并确定项目的整体质量与所使用的统计资源之间是否存在关联(若存在的话)。
对1995年至2002年间在萨拉戈萨大学外科进行的273个论文项目进行描述性研究。15名观察者进行审查,他们分析了每个项目的28项指标。通过为每个指标赋值,根据科学方法的完成质量,项目在1至10的量表上进行评分。
项目质量的平均值为5.53(标准差:1.77)。13.9%的论文项目以宣读论文结束。所使用的统计资源的三项指标与高质量项目的值存在显著差异。
当一个论文项目想要通过良好的方法来完成时,统计资源的质量非常重要,因为它确保能得出某些结论。在我们的研究中,我们认为论文项目质量中超过三分之一的变异性可由上述三项统计指标来解释。
