To determine the effect of a 5-week Career Explorers Program (CEP) on high school students' perceptions of pharmacists' characteristics, duties, and training.
A 16-item survey instrument with attitudinal, frequency, and relative quantity response options was completed by all CEP students on the first and last day of the program. The survey assessed students' attitudes concerning pharmacist characteristics, duties, and training.
All students who participated in the CEP in 2003 completed the survey instrument (n = 50). Seventy percent of respondents' answers to the attitudinal subscale questions significantly changed from preassessment to postassessment.
A 5-week CEP provided high school students with more realistic perceptions of pharmacists' roles, duties, and training before the students entered the pharmacy program.
确定为期5周的职业探索计划(CEP)对高中生对药剂师的特征、职责和培训认知的影响。
所有参加CEP的学生在该计划的第一天和最后一天完成了一份包含态度、频率和相对数量回答选项的16项调查问卷。该调查评估了学生对药剂师特征、职责和培训的态度。
2003年所有参加CEP的学生都完成了调查问卷(n = 50)。70%的受访者在态度子量表问题上的回答从评估前到评估后有显著变化。
为期5周的CEP在高中生进入药学课程之前,让他们对药剂师的角色、职责和培训有了更现实的认知。
