In this article, we analyze data collected in the context of health workforce planning (HWFP) for Guiné-Bissau as part of the development of the third National Health Strategy, to study the relationship between educational achievement of parents and medical student characteristics and professional expectations.
Cross-sectional analytical study of all first-year medical students in Guiné-Bissau during December 2016.
Our results confirm that the isolated effect of each parent is different as it is the combined education of both parents. Parental influence also seems to vary according to the sex of the offspring. The higher the education of the father, the stronger the urban background of the offspring. Level of education of parents is also important in relation to the decision to study medicine and the age of starting those studies. It is also an important influence as to expectation regarding place of future practice: the highest the educational level, particularly of the father, the highest the expectation for a future urban practice.
Our main interest in medical education is to study it as a health system intervention in order to contribute to health system's strengthening in fragile states. This is discussed in the context of two frameworks: the labor market framework and WHO's health system strengthening framework. Our data and that of others, recognize that household characteristics are important regarding future training and a future career in the health sector. This recognition should be integrated into HWFP frameworks.
在本文中，我们分析了在为几内亚比绍进行卫生人力规划 (HWFP) 过程中收集的数据，作为制定第三次国家卫生战略的一部分，以研究父母的教育成就与医学生特征和职业期望之间的关系。
对 2016 年 12 月期间几内亚比绍所有一年级医学生进行的横断面分析性研究。
我们的研究结果证实，父母双方的联合教育对医学生的影响与每个家长的单独影响是不同的。父母的影响似乎也因后代的性别而异。父亲的教育程度越高，后代的城市背景越强。父母的教育水平对于是否决定学医以及开始学医的年龄也很重要。它也是对未来执业地点期望的重要影响因素：父亲的教育水平越高，特别是父亲的教育水平越高，对未来城市执业的期望就越高。
我们对医学教育的主要兴趣是将其作为卫生系统干预措施进行研究，以促进脆弱国家卫生系统的加强。这是在两个框架内进行讨论的：劳动力市场框架和世卫组织的卫生系统加强框架。我们的数据和其他人的数据都认识到，家庭特征对于未来的培训和卫生部门的未来职业很重要。这种认识应该纳入 HWFP 框架。
