How undergraduate dental students at Dalhousie University perceive various aspects of the positions held by faculty members was determined by responses on a 20-item questionnaire. Comparisons of item responses by students' class year, age group, marital status, sex, and perceived class standing generally produced a similar rank order of questionnaire items. Students perceived faculty positions that involved a high degree of administrative responsibility as being more difficult than preclinical instruction and part-time faculty positions. Research was perceived by students to be of low importance to faculty. It is important to consider the various perceptions that students hold regarding faculty positions if changes are planned to improve the teaching environment. A wide divergence between the perception held by faculty and students regarding the difficulties of a faculty position may hinder optimum student-faculty relationships.
通过一份包含20个条目的问卷的回答，确定了达尔豪斯大学的本科牙科学生如何看待教员职位的各个方面。按学生的年级、年龄组、婚姻状况、性别和感知到的班级排名对条目回答进行比较，问卷条目的排名顺序总体上相似。学生们认为，涉及高度行政责任的教员职位比临床前教学和兼职教员职位更难。学生们认为研究对教员来说重要性较低。如果计划进行变革以改善教学环境，那么考虑学生对教员职位的各种看法很重要。教员和学生对教员职位困难程度的看法存在很大差异，这可能会阻碍最佳的师生关系。
