A 35-item questionnaire was designed to assess the relative importance of various factors to medical students when ranking physical medicine and rehabilitation (PM&R) residency training programs. The questionnaire was used to assess the relative importance of the various factors to three groups of medical students: those who interviewed, those who matched and those who were listed on the match list of the UMDNJ-New Jersey Medical School (NJMS) Department of PM&R, as well as our current residents. Recipients were asked to grade selection factors based on a numerical scale: 1, extremely important; 2, very important; 3, important; 4, minimally important; 5, not important. A response rate of 100% (n = 72 medical students + 25 residents) was attained. The analysis indicates that, overall, there is no significant difference in ranking of the factors by each of the four groups. However, the medical students who recently matched with the UMDNJ-NJMS PM&R program rated the opportunity to conduct research significantly higher than the current house staff or the medical students on the entire match list. This is a desirable result, as the program strives to provide an environment that is conducive to the growth of research and academic physiatrists. This questionnaire could also be used by other residency training directors to guide the development of their program and to gain valuable information regarding the perception of their program among in-coming residents and the importance of various factors to the students interested in their program.
设计了一份包含35个条目的问卷,以评估在对物理医学与康复(PM&R)住院医师培训项目进行排名时,各种因素对医学生的相对重要性。该问卷用于评估各种因素对三组医学生的相对重要性:参加面试的学生、成功匹配的学生以及列入新泽西医科与牙科大学(UMDNJ)-新泽西医学院(NJMS)物理医学与康复系匹配名单的学生,以及我们目前的住院医师。要求受访者根据数字量表对选择因素进行评分:1,极其重要;2,非常重要;3,重要;4,最低限度重要;5,不重要。获得了100%的回复率(n = 72名医学生 + 25名住院医师)。分析表明,总体而言,四组中的每一组对这些因素的排名没有显著差异。然而,最近与UMDNJ-NJMS物理医学与康复项目成功匹配的医学生对进行研究的机会的评分显著高于目前的住院医生或整个匹配名单上的医学生。这是一个理想的结果,因为该项目致力于提供一个有利于研究型和学术型物理治疗师成长的环境。其他住院医师培训主任也可以使用这份问卷来指导他们项目的发展,并获得有关即将入学的住院医师对其项目的看法以及各种因素对有意参加其项目的学生的重要性的宝贵信息。
