Abstract

BACKGROUND

It is increasingly recognized that mentoring is important in the career development of resident physicians. The purpose of the study was to determine the views of residency Program Directors on mentorship through a cross sectional survey.

METHODS

Respondents included program directors of academic dermatology departments in the United States.

RESULTS

Fifty-three of 108 program directors completed an on-line survey (response rate 49%). Eighty-one percent of respondents indicated that mentorship played a 'somewhat' or 'very important' role in their own career development and a similar proportion considered it important for residents to have mentors. Fifty percent of program directors identified a need for more structured mentorship within the residency program. Compared to male program directors, a greater proportion of female program directors stated that mentorship played a very important role in their career development (89% vs. 36%, p=0.007) and a lesser proportion stated that it was important for female dermatology residents to specifically have access to female mentors (11.1% vs. 67.4%, p=0.003).

CONCLUSION

Program Directors viewed mentoring as an important resource for their residents' professional development. A need was identified for additional strategies to help residents find mentors.

摘要

背景

人们越来越认识到导师指导在住院医师职业发展中很重要。本研究的目的是通过横断面调查确定住院医师培训项目主任对导师指导的看法。

方法

受访者包括美国学术皮肤科部门的项目主任。

结果

108名项目主任中有53人完成了在线调查（回复率49%）。81%的受访者表示导师指导在他们自己的职业发展中发挥了“一定程度”或“非常重要”的作用，类似比例的受访者认为住院医师有导师很重要。50%的项目主任认为住院医师培训项目中需要更结构化的导师指导。与男性项目主任相比，更大比例的女性项目主任表示导师指导在她们的职业发展中发挥了非常重要的作用（89%对36%，p = 0.007），而表示女性皮肤科住院医师特别需要有女性导师的比例较低（11.1%对67.4%，p = 0.003）。
