Two randomly selected subsets of dermatology training program graduates who passed qualifying examinations for certification by the American Board of Dermatology in 1984 and 1989 received a questionnaire concerning their perceptions of academic teaching positions. Approximately one third responded. Those in private practice indicated financial constraints, lack of "control," and the requirement to be "political" as negative factors in academic centers, whereas those in academic positions indicated the inordinate amount of time that was required to achieve academic goals as the major negative factor. Both groups believed that the opportunity to teach and intellectual challenge were the most valued elements in academic careers. There was considerable misunderstanding among all respondents about the diversity of goals, methods, and opportunities that are found in many academic programs.
随机选取了两组皮肤科培训项目毕业生，他们分别于1984年和1989年通过了美国皮肤科委员会的资格认证考试，并收到了一份关于他们对学术教学职位看法的问卷。约三分之一的人进行了回复。从事私人执业的人指出，经济限制、缺乏“控制权”以及需要“搞政治”是学术中心的负面因素，而从事学术职位的人则表示，实现学术目标所需的时间过长是主要负面因素。两组人都认为教学机会和智力挑战是学术生涯中最有价值的因素。所有受访者对许多学术项目中目标、方法和机会的多样性都存在相当大的误解。
