Faculty shortages are a significant concern in family medicine education. Many family medicine residency programs need to recruit faculty in the coming years. As a result, family medicine faculty and resident physicians will be interviewing candidates to fill these vacancies. Little is known about the characteristics valued in a family medicine residency faculty candidate.
Using a cross-sectional survey of family medicine faculty and resident physicians in family medicine residency programs in Kansas, we attempted to define which characteristics are most valued by current faculty members and resident physicians in family medicine residency programs during the faculty hiring process.
Of 187 invited respondents, 93 completed the survey (49.7% response rate). Twenty-five characteristics, grouped into five domains of relationship building, clinical, teaching, research and administrative skills, were rated as either not important, important, or very important. Building and maintaining healthy relationships was the most important characteristic for faculty, residents, males, and females. Administrative characteristics were the lowest ranked domain in our survey.
These results provide an important snapshot of the characteristics valued in faculty candidates for family medicine residency programs. Understanding the paradigm used by existing faculty and resident physicians in family medicine residency programs when considering new faculty hires has an important impact on faculty recruitment and faculty development programs.
师资短缺是家庭医学教育的一个重大问题。许多家庭医学住院医师培训计划在未来几年需要招聘教师。因此，家庭医学教师和住院医师将对候选人进行面试，以填补这些空缺。目前还不太清楚家庭医学住院医师培训计划的教师候选人所看重的特征。
我们对堪萨斯州家庭医学住院医师培训计划中的家庭医学教师和住院医师进行了横断面调查，试图确定在教师招聘过程中，当前的教师和住院医师最看重家庭医学住院医师培训计划中的哪些特征。
在 187 名受邀的受访者中，有 93 名完成了调查（49.7%的回应率）。25 个特征分为关系建立、临床、教学、研究和管理技能五个领域，被评为不重要、重要或非常重要。建立和维持健康的关系是教师、住院医师、男性和女性最看重的特征。在我们的调查中，管理特征是排名最低的领域。
这些结果提供了家庭医学住院医师培训计划中教师候选人所看重的特征的重要快照。了解家庭医学住院医师培训计划中现有教师和住院医师在考虑新教师时使用的模式，对教师招聘和教师发展计划有重要影响。
