BACKGROUND
The approach to the education and professional advancement of physiotherapists is particularly relevant today. To date, no studies have compared the perceptions of physiotherapists regarding professional issues in geographically close European countries such as Poland and Germany. Therefore, this study's purpose was to compare Polish and German physiotherapists' perceptions related to their profession, entry-level education, and career opportunities.
METHODS
We recruited 565 physiotherapists from Poland and 560 physiotherapists from Germany. An opinion polling method based on a questionnaire was applied in the study. The survey was conducted in 48 facilities located throughout the territories of the two countries. The assessment focused on the following three issues: 1) professional education (form and content of educational programs, organizational aspects, and effects of education); 2) professional development and career opportunities; and 3) the relationship between years of service and perceptions of professional education, career satisfaction and advancement opportunities.
RESULTS
German respondents rated specific aspects of their education, development opportunities and professional careers more highly than their Polish counterparts (p = 0.001). A highly significant negative correlation was identified in both groups between all the assessed aspects of professional education and years of service (0.9 ≤ |R| < 1, p = 0.001).
CONCLUSIONS
Opinions on their professions expressed by physiotherapists from closely neighboring countries, namely, Poland and Germany, were surprisingly disparate. Compared to their Polish colleagues, German physiotherapists viewed their experiences more favorably vis-a-vis entry-level education, career opportunities, and professional status. Further study is needed to establish whether these findings reflect actual differences, sampling bias, or other factors.
背景
目前，物理治疗师的教育和专业发展途径尤其受到关注。迄今为止，尚无研究比较过波兰和德国等地理位置相近的欧洲国家的物理治疗师对专业问题的看法。因此，本研究的目的是比较波兰和德国物理治疗师对其专业、入门级教育和职业机会的看法。
方法
我们招募了来自波兰的 565 名物理治疗师和来自德国的 560 名物理治疗师。该研究采用基于问卷的民意调查方法。该调查在两国领土上的 48 个设施中进行。评估重点关注以下三个问题：1）专业教育（教育计划的形式和内容、组织方面以及教育效果）；2）专业发展和职业机会；3）服务年限与专业教育、职业满意度和晋升机会之间的关系。
结果
德国受访者对其教育、发展机会和职业的某些方面的评价高于波兰同行（p=0.001）。两组参与者均发现，专业教育的所有评估方面与服务年限之间存在高度显著的负相关（0.9≤|R|＜1，p=0.001）。
结论
来自邻国波兰和德国的物理治疗师对其专业的看法令人惊讶地不同。与波兰同行相比，德国物理治疗师对入门级教育、职业机会和专业地位的体验更为正面。需要进一步研究以确定这些发现是否反映了实际差异、抽样偏差或其他因素。
