A survey was conducted to investigate the hypothesis that female gender would positively affect job satisfaction among obstetrician gynecologists.
A survey was sent to 500 randomized, age matched American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology members, 50% each men and women: 49.8% responded. Data were analyzed with the chi2 contingency test, Cochran's test for linear trends, Student t tests, and multiple regression.
Women considered their gender an asset in deciding on a career in obstetrics and gynecology, in obtaining jobs, and in maintaining their practices. Men considered that their gender limited their practice options and were more likely to report that they would not choose a career in obstetrics and gynecology if they could choose again. The only significant difference between men and women in measures of obtaining and maintaining a practice was that men were more likely to practice in small urban or rural settings. Men reported higher incomes. Both genders were equally satisfied with their jobs.
Although both genders considered female gender to be an asset in obstetrics and gynecology, this survey showed no difference in their ratings of overall career satisfaction.
进行一项调查以研究女性性别会对妇产科医生的工作满意度产生积极影响这一假设。
向500名随机抽取的、年龄匹配的美国妇产科学院成员发放调查问卷，男女各占50%：49.8%的人做出了回应。数据采用卡方列联检验、 Cochr an线性趋势检验、学生t检验和多元回归进行分析。
女性认为她们的性别在决定从事妇产科职业、获得工作以及维持执业方面是一项优势。男性认为他们的性别限制了他们的执业选择，并且更有可能报告说如果可以再次选择，他们不会选择从事妇产科职业。在获得和维持执业方面，男性和女性之间唯一显著的差异是男性更有可能在小城市或农村地区执业。男性报告的收入更高。两性对工作的满意度相同。
尽管两性都认为女性性别在妇产科领域是一项优势，但这项调查显示他们在总体职业满意度评分上没有差异。
