With the emerging opportunities for pharmacists to gain provider status, the need for understanding interest to become a pharmacist provider has never been greater.
To determine which entrepreneurial traits (locus of control, innovativeness, autonomy, risk-taking propensity, proactiveness, achievement motivation, people liking, problem-solving, and leadership) are associated with interest in becoming a pharmacist provider.
A cross-sectional survey was conducted among second- and third-year student pharmacists. Exploratory factor analysis (principal components with varimax rotation) was used to determine any underlying dimensions. Significant differences in interest in becoming a pharmacist provider by demographic and other characteristics were determined using tests and analysis of variance (ANOVA; ≤ .05). Multiple linear regression was used to determine the factors associated with interest in becoming a pharmacist provider.
A total of 137 completed questionnaires were received. Gender ( = .003) and preference of workplace ( < .001) were significantly associated with interest in becoming a pharmacist provider. All factor loadings were more than 0.50 and Cronbach alpha values were more than .68. In the multiple linear regression analysis model, proactiveness ( = .036) and achievement motivation ( = .018) were positive predictors of interest in becoming a pharmacist provider. Females ( = .006) and individuals who preferred to work in a hospital ( < .001) or in specialty care ( = .007) had a significantly greater interest in becoming a pharmacist provider.
Proactiveness and achievement motivation can be predictors of interest in becoming a pharmacist provider.
随着药剂师获得提供者身份的机会不断涌现，对成为药剂师提供者的兴趣的理解比以往任何时候都更加重要。
确定哪些创业特质（控制点、创新性、自主性、风险倾向、前瞻性、成就动机、喜欢与人交往、解决问题和领导力）与成为药剂师提供者的兴趣相关。
对第二和第三年的学生药剂师进行了横断面调查。采用探索性因子分析（主成分分析与方差极大旋转）确定潜在维度。使用 t 检验和方差分析（ANOVA； ≤.05）确定人口统计学和其他特征与成为药剂师提供者的兴趣之间的显著差异。使用多元线性回归确定与成为药剂师提供者的兴趣相关的因素。
共收到 137 份完整的问卷。性别（ =.003）和工作场所偏好（ <.001）与成为药剂师提供者的兴趣显著相关。所有因子负荷均大于 0.50，克朗巴赫阿尔法值均大于 0.68。在多元线性回归分析模型中，前瞻性（ =.036）和成就动机（ =.018）是对成为药剂师提供者的兴趣的正向预测因子。女性（ =.006）和更喜欢在医院（ <.001）或专科护理（ =.007）工作的个体对成为药剂师提供者的兴趣明显更大。
前瞻性和成就动机可以预测成为药剂师提供者的兴趣。
