Public opinion about doctors' incomes was examined in a national random sample of 843 respondents; 70.1 per cent of those questioned felt physicians are overpaid. There was a high degree of agreement among various groups that physicians are overpaid, but older people and Whites were more likely to think so than younger people and other ethnic groups. People who believe that the United States is characterized by unequal educational opportunity, unfair income distribution, and limited resources were also more likely to think physicians are overpaid.
在一项针对843名受访者的全国随机抽样调查中,研究了公众对医生收入的看法;70.1%的受访者认为医生薪酬过高。不同群体在医生薪酬过高这一点上有高度共识,但老年人和白人比年轻人及其他种族群体更倾向于这样认为。那些认为美国存在教育机会不平等、收入分配不公和资源有限等问题的人,也更有可能认为医生薪酬过高。
