本文对医学社会学中的不确定性观念进行了批判,特别是在医学教育研究的背景下。雷尼·福克斯的作品被用作这一批评所针对的作品的主要例子。有人认为,在以前的文献中,训练不确定性的想法被过度强调了。确定性训练的概念是作为一种纠正而提出的。一个充分的医学知识、教育和实践现象学必须承认确定性和不确定性是两种不同的态度,它们可以同时共存,反映不同的实践和理论利益。
This paper offers a critique of the idea of uncertainty in the sociology of medicine, particularly in the context of studies of medical education. The work of Renee Fox is used as the main example of the work against which this criticism is leveled. It is argued that the idea of training for uncertainty has been over-emphasized in previous literature. The notion of training for certainty is proposed as a corrective. An adequate phenomenology of medical knowledge, education and practice must recognize certainty and uncertainty as 2 different attitudes, which may co-exist simultaneously, reflecting different practical and theoretical interests.
