Knowing one's interpersonal relationship preferences can be tremendously helpful for medical students' lives. The purpose of this study was to examine the interpersonal needs in medical students.
Between 2010 and 2015, a total of 877 students from four Korean medical schools took the Korean version of the Fundamental Interpersonal Relations Orientation - Behaviour (FIRO-B) scale. The FIRO-B results were analyzed by descriptive statistics, frequency, independent t-test, and one-way ANOVA.
The medical students' scores for interpersonal needs were moderate overall, with the highest scores for control (M = 8.63, SD = 3.08), followed by affection (M = 8.14, SD = 4.34), and inclusion (M = 7.81, SD = 4.30). Gender differences showed in three areas: expressed control (male > female, t = 4.137, p < 0.001), wanted affection (male < female, t = -3.148, p = 0.002), and control needs (male > female, t = 2.761, p = 0.006). By school type, differences were shown in expressed control (t = 3.581, p < 0.001), wanted inclusion (t = 2.625, p = 0.009), Inclusion (t = 1.966, p = 0.050), and expressed (t = 2.077, p = 0.038); undergraduate medical college (MC) students' needs were greater than the needs of graduate medical school (MS) students, but for wanted control, the MS students showed greater needs (t = -2.122, p = 0.034).
There were differences in all categories except for expressed inclusion, wanted control, and control. The FIRO-B is a useful tool for giving insight into students regarding their interpersonal orientations, which will help them to adjust to medical school life. In addition, the FIRO-B can be useful when mentoring and coaching students.
了解个人的人际关系偏好对医学生的生活非常有帮助。本研究的目的是调查医学生的人际需求。
2010年至2015年间，来自四所韩国医学院的877名学生参加了韩语版的基本人际关系取向-行为（FIRO-B）量表测试。FIRO-B的结果通过描述性统计、频率、独立样本t检验和单因素方差分析进行分析。
医学生的人际需求得分总体适中，控制需求得分最高（M = 8.63，标准差 = 3.08），其次是情感需求（M = 8.14，标准差 = 4.34）和包容需求（M = 7.81，标准差 = 4.30）。在三个方面存在性别差异：表达的控制需求（男性>女性，t = 4.137，p < 0.001）、想要的情感需求（男性<女性，t = -3.148，p = 0.002）和控制需求（男性>女性，t = 2.761，p = 0.006）。按学校类型划分，在表达的控制需求（t = 3.581，p < 0.001）、想要的包容需求（t = 2.625，p = 0.009）、包容需求（t = 1.966，p = 0.050）和表达需求（t = 2.077，p = 0.038）方面存在差异；本科医学院（MC）学生的需求大于研究生医学院（MS）学生，但对于想要的控制需求，MS学生表现出更大的需求（t = -2.122，p = 0.034）。
除了表达的包容需求、想要的控制需求和控制需求外，所有类别均存在差异。FIRO-B是一个有用的工具，可帮助了解学生的人际取向，这将有助于他们适应医学院生活。此外，FIRO-B在指导和辅导学生时也可能有用。
