In this baseline study, the authors analyze in detail many of the factors that influenced the research career intentions of the 1994 U.S. graduates of MD-only programs. Studies of the research interests of the nation's medical school graduates are important because MD-PhD programs do not produce sufficient numbers of physician-scientists, and the remainder must come from the regular population of medical graduates. Data on school characteristics and medical students' demographics, research career intentions, and educational experiences were derived from the AAMC's Institutional Profile System (IPS), Student Application and Information Management System (SAIMS), Matriculating Student Questionnaire (MSQ), and Medical School Graduation Questionnaire (GQ). The 1994 GQ was used as the index instrument to make the correlations reported in this article. A number of findings emerged concerning the 1994 graduates. A greater percentage of these students who began medical school with strong research career intentions and maintained these intentions had entered private medical schools. The lower rate of research interest amongst the students enrolled in public medical schools was compounded by the significantly greater loss of earlier research intentions of those in public schools compared with those in private schools.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
在这项基线研究中，作者详细分析了许多影响1994年美国仅获得医学博士学位项目毕业生科研职业意向的因素。对该国医学院校毕业生的研究兴趣进行研究很重要，因为医学博士-哲学博士项目培养的医师科学家数量不足，其余的必须来自普通医学毕业生群体。关于学校特征、医学生人口统计学、科研职业意向和教育经历的数据来自美国医学协会（AAMC）的机构概况系统（IPS）、学生申请与信息管理系统（SAIMS）、入学学生问卷（MSQ）和医学院毕业问卷（GQ）。1994年的GQ被用作索引工具，以得出本文所报告的相关性。关于1994年毕业生出现了一些研究结果。这些学生中，带着强烈科研职业意向开始医学院学习并维持这些意向的人，有更大比例进入了私立医学院。公立医学院校学生的科研兴趣较低，而且与私立医学院校的学生相比，公立学校学生早期科研意向的丧失率显著更高，这使得情况更加复杂。（摘要截选至250词）
