Abstract

BACKGROUND

There is little data to suggest that a specific admission method can select students with a distinct personality profile. We have recently introduced a new admission process that combines a computerized personality test, with a single interview. The purpose of the current study was to find whether the new method selects applicants with a different personality profile and attitudes compared with the previous method.

METHOD

Using a validated personality questionnaire (HEXACO) and attitudes questionnair, that were filled anonymously between November 2014 and May 2015, the authors compared two groups of students: group A comprising students accepted with the new method (first and second year) with group B comprising students accepted with the previous method (third to sixth year).

RESULTS

In group A, 157 responded out of 250 (63%), while in group B 194 out of 352 (55%). Group A students ranked significantly higher in honesty-humility, extraversion, agreeableness and openness to experience, and lower in emotionality. Physicians' role in society was perceived to be more meaningful among Group A students (M = 4.19, SD = 0.50, N = 152) compared to Group B students (M = 3.86, SD = 0.57, N = 184).

CONCLUSIONS

The new method may select applicants with a distinct personality profile and different attitudes toward the physicians' role in the society.

摘要

背景

几乎没有数据表明某种特定的入学方法可以选拔出具有独特人格特征的学生。我们最近引入了一种新的入学流程，将计算机化的人格测试与单次面试相结合。本研究的目的是发现新方法是否与旧方法相比选择了具有不同人格特征和态度的申请人。

方法

使用经过验证的人格问卷（HEXACO）和态度问卷，作者于 2014 年 11 月至 2015 年 5 月期间匿名收集了两组学生的数据：A 组由通过新方法录取的学生（一年级和二年级）组成，B 组由通过旧方法录取的学生（三至六年级）组成。

结果

A 组中有 157 名学生（250 名学生的 63%）回应了问卷，B 组中有 194 名学生（352 名学生的 55%）回应了问卷。A 组学生在诚信-谦逊、外向性、宜人性和开放性方面的得分显著更高，而在情绪性方面的得分更低。与 B 组学生相比（M=3.86，SD=0.57，N=184），A 组学生认为医生在社会中的角色更有意义（M=4.19，SD=0.50，N=152）。
