这项研究的目的是评估西弗吉尼亚州主要学术健康科学中心的学生和教职员工对什么是专业精神的认知是否随年龄、学科、性别或教育水平的不同而不同。这项探索性描述性调查研究要求参与者将调查中描述的行为归类为专业、非专业或与专业无关。使用列联表对结果进行分析。对于2×2列联表,利用Fisher精确检验进行齐性独立性检验。对于维度较高的表格,采用卡方检验。这项调查的回报率为45%,并表明人们对专业精神的看法随着教育水平和年龄的不同而变化最大,而性别和医疗保健纪律的差异较小。本科生、女性、最年轻的年龄段(或=26岁)、护理专业的学生以及牙科或医学以外的教职员工更有可能将调查陈述中描述的行为标记为不专业。这项研究的发现突显了专业精神起源的复杂性。关于专业精神教学的进一步研究是必要的。
The purpose of this study was to assess whether the perception of what constitutes professionalism varies with age, discipline, gender, or educational level among students and faculty at the major academic health sciences center in West Virginia. This exploratory descriptive survey study asked participants to classify behaviors described in a survey as professional, unprofessional, or unrelated to professionalism. Results were analyzed using contingency tables. For 2 x 2 contingency tables, test of independence of homogeneity was carried out by using Fisher's exact test. For tables of higher dimensions, chi square test was used. The survey yielded a 45 percent return rate and demonstrated that the perception of professionalism varied most with the level of education and age and, to a lesser extent, with gender and health care discipline. Undergraduates, females, the youngest age group (< or = 26), nursing students, and faculty other than dental or medical were more likely to label behavior depicted in the survey statements as unprofessional. The findings of this study underscore the complexities of the genesis of professionalism. Further study in regard to the teaching of professionalism is warranted.
