To define recommendations to the medical schools in Turkey about social accountability which meets the local needs.
The Association of Evaluation and Accreditation of Medical Education Programs (TEPDAD-Turkey) Social Accountability working group planned a study to determine national recommendations for social accountability of medical schools in two-stages. Delphi technique was used to develop the recommendations and finalize the recommendations in the first stage in which 61 members from 30 different institutions participated. Qualitative analysis was used for open questions in the first round and quantitative analysis for the data which is collected with a rating scale in the second and third rounds of the Delphi study. In the second stage, the recommendations were reviewed and finalized in a consensus workshop in which 68 members from 39 different institutions participated.
In the Delphi study 63 recommendations were classified under five themes: the health needs of the society, health service delivery, institutional structure and management, educational program and implementation and development and evaluation of social accountability. In the consensus workshop, the 63 recommendations were evaluated and of which 54 of 63 recommendations were agreed upon.
A national framework has been developed by including a wide range of experts from different institutions for the social accountability of medical schools in Turkey. Developing recommendations in a local context will enhance the conceptualization of the recommendations of social accountability in the medical schools. As an accreditation body embedding the principles in the national standards will have a further impact on this process.
为土耳其的医学院制定符合当地需求的社会责任建议。
医学教育计划评估和认证协会（TEPDAD-土耳其）社会责任工作组计划进行一项研究，以确定医学院社会责任的国家建议。该研究分两个阶段进行，使用德尔菲技术制定建议，并在第一阶段最终确定建议，该阶段有来自 30 个不同机构的 61 名成员参与。第一轮采用开放式问题进行定性分析，第二轮和第三轮采用评分量表收集数据进行定量分析。在第二阶段，共识研讨会对建议进行了审查和最终确定，有来自 39 个不同机构的 68 名成员参加。
在德尔菲研究中，63 项建议分为五个主题：社会的健康需求、卫生服务提供、机构结构和管理、教育计划和实施以及社会责任的发展和评估。在共识研讨会上，对 63 项建议进行了评估，其中 63 项建议中的 54 项得到了一致同意。
通过包括来自不同机构的广泛专家，为土耳其的医学院制定了社会责任的国家框架。在当地背景下制定建议将增强医学院社会责任建议的概念化。作为一个将原则纳入国家标准的认证机构，将对这一过程产生进一步的影响。
