This research was conducted to investigate patterns of attendance at continuing education meetings and examine which factors encourage or inhibit attendance by comparing the characteristics of general practitioners who attend regularly with those who attend occasionally or not at all. The findings provide course organizers with a detailed insight into the attitudes and perceptions of frequent and infrequent attenders. The research identifies a need for greater personal contact in changing attitudes to continuing education and bringing about greater involvement. It is concluded that the role of general practitioner tutor should be enhanced to provide more direct contact and influence with small groups of doctors.
开展这项研究是为了调查参加继续教育会议的模式,并通过比较经常参加会议的全科医生与偶尔参加或根本不参加会议的全科医生的特征,来研究哪些因素促进或阻碍了参会。研究结果为课程组织者深入了解经常参会者和不经常参会者的态度与看法提供了详细信息。该研究表明,在改变对继续教育的态度并提高参与度方面,需要更多的个人接触。研究得出结论,应加强全科医生导师的作用,以便与一小群医生进行更直接的接触和施加影响。
