1979 年,美国家庭医师学会 (AAFP) 对家庭执业住院医师毕业生进行了一项研究,以开发个人和职业特征的数据库。调查问卷发送给 4,295 名医生,结果基于总共 3,021 名受访者。女性医生占该样本的 7.1%;然而,当时的数据分析并没有区分男性和女性。目前的研究是对 AAFP 收集的数据进行重新分析,包括对男性和女性受访者的比较,并确定文献中报道的性别差异是否继续存在。结果表明,在所研究的六个领域中,有四个领域确实存在性别差异;然而,这些差异并不像早期研究中描述的那么大。存在差异的领域包括人口统计、家庭结构、执业安排和工资。在职业选择发展和专业活动领域没有发现显着差异。现在,女医生的数量接近所有新家庭医生的 20%,需要进一步收集数据来确定她们对家庭医疗专业的影响。
In 1979 the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) conducted a study of family practice residency graduates to develop a database of personal and professional characteristics. Questionnaires were sent to 4,295 physicians, and results were based on a total of 3,021 respondents. Female physicians made up 7.1 percent of this sample; however, analysis of the data at that time did not distinguish between men and women. The current study is a reanalysis of the data collected by the AAFP to include comparisons of male and female respondents and to determine whether gender differences that have been reported in the literature continue to persist. Results indicate that gender differences did persist in four of six areas studied; however, these differences were not so large as described in earlier studies. Areas in which differences were found are demographics, family structure, practice arrangements, and salary. Notable differences were not found in the areas of career choice development and professional activities. Now that the number of female physicians approaches 20 percent of all new family physicians, further data collection efforts are needed to determine their impact on family practice as a specialty.
