To determine how social factors influence career decisions of dental service providers, particularly focusing on examining the impact of dentists' origins.
Online survey of Hessian panel dentists, with pairwise comparisons to a set of factors impacting their decision-making process. An Analytic Hierarchy Process examined the weighting of influencing drivers in career choice.
Dentists from rural backgrounds were more likely to establish practices in rural areas than those from urban origins. Origin correlated with entrepreneurial intentions and a strong association of rural origin. Dentists who grew up in rural areas were 4.19 times more likely to start a business.
These findings may support efficient resource allocation and support for rural dental businesses.
探讨社会因素如何影响牙科服务提供者的职业决策,特别关注牙医出身对其职业决策的影响。
对黑森州医师小组的在线调查,并与影响其决策过程的一系列因素进行配对比较。采用层次分析法考察影响职业选择的驱动因素的权重。
农村背景的牙医比城市出身的牙医更有可能在农村地区开设诊所。出身与创业意向和强烈的农村出身关联性相关。在农村地区长大的牙医创业的可能性是城市牙医的 4.19 倍。
这些发现可能支持对农村牙科业务的有效资源配置和支持。
