This study compared the performance of male and female medical students on a psychiatric clerkship rotation. The women performed at a higher level than the men, although the difference was not significant. In general, the men scored significantly higher on national standardized medical examinations. Correlations between psychiatric clerkship evaluations and national examinations were low, suggesting that the two measures are independent. These findings for psychiatric clerkship are consistent with those for clerkships in medicine, surgery and obstetrics, implying that female clinical clerks are just as capable as male clinical clerks in providing high quality medical care.
本研究比较了男女医学生在精神科实习轮转中的表现。女性的表现高于男性，尽管差异不显著。总体而言，男性在全国标准化医学考试中的得分显著更高。精神科实习评估与全国考试之间的相关性较低，这表明这两种测评方式相互独立。精神科实习的这些发现与医学、外科和产科实习的发现一致，这意味着女性临床实习生在提供高质量医疗护理方面与男性临床实习生能力相当。
