Abstract

INTRODUCTION

Research participation by medical students in the early years of their medical studies can change their attitude towards research conduction in the years to come. To identify the shortcomings in our system, it is essential to determine the perception, tendencies, and knowledge of Pakistani medical students about the field of research.

METHODS

This survey-based cross-sectional study was conducted at KING EDWARD MEDICAL UNIVERSITY, Lahore with 305 MBBS students. The relevant data for the study was collected in the shape of a pretested, semi-structured questionnaire assembled in the form of google form. The collected data was analyzed using SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) version 16.

RESULTS

36.7% of the final year students have conducted research, however, the percentage comes down to 0% and 10.6% for 1st and 2nd year respectively. 50.6% of the final year students claimed they had a good grip on the steps involved in the conduction of research while the percentage for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th year was 7.1%, 21.3%, 20.9%, and 51.2% respectively. More than 70% of the participants from each year considered research as an important help for critical thinking and improvement in patients' care.

DISCUSSION

The reasons for the interest of the students in research as indicated by our study include improvement in the professional standards, help in becoming a better self-directed learner, and opportunities for team-based learning via research conduction. Academic overload, lack of structured research training, and difficulty in publishing are the biggest barriers to the conduction of research as recognized by our study.

CONCLUSION

Conduction of research seminars, organizing platforms for communication between students and teaching staff, restructuring of the medical curriculum, and providing students with the required technical staff can help us overcome these hurdles.

摘要

引言

医学生在医学学习早期参与研究可以改变他们未来对研究开展的态度。为了找出我们体系中的不足，确定巴基斯坦医学生对研究领域的认知、倾向和知识至关重要。

方法

这项基于调查的横断面研究在拉合尔的爱德华国王医科大学对305名医科学生进行。研究的相关数据以预先测试的半结构化问卷形式收集，该问卷以谷歌表单形式组装。使用社会科学统计软件包（SPSS）16版对收集到的数据进行分析。

结果

36.7%的最后一年学生进行过研究，然而，第一年和第二年进行过研究的学生比例分别降至0%和10.6%。50.6%的最后一年学生声称他们对研究开展所涉及的步骤有很好的掌握，而第一年、第二年、第三年和第四年的这一比例分别为7.1%、21.3%、20.9%和51.2%。每年超过70%的参与者认为研究对批判性思维和改善患者护理有重要帮助。
