导言：教育上有影响力的医生可能是一个宝贵的资源，在继续医学教育。虽然推动这项研究的想法-非正式学习-与成人教育、组织学习、市场营销和知识传播的研究趋同，但干预的结果证明是不确定的。要实现的教育有影响力的医生（EIP）建设的承诺，有人认为，研究人员必须返回到“经典”的研究在这方面，并恢复过程中验证的意义construct.METHODS：文献综述和一个教育有影响力的医生识别调查的场合提供了一个机会，有助于发展这个结构。我们比较了三个识别规则，用于研究212 physics.RESULTS：每个规则可以识别不同的人EIPs.DISCUSSION：为了提高使用的教育影响，研究必须完成，以验证他们在非正式学习中的作用。
INTRODUCTION: Educationally influential physicians may be a valuable resource in continuing medical education. Although the idea driving this research--informal learning--converges with research in adult education, organizational learning, marketing, and knowledge diffusion, the results of interventions have proven inconclusive. To actualize the promise of the educationally influential physician (EIP) construct, it is argued that researchers must return to the "classic" studies in this area and resume the process of validating the meaning of the construct.METHODS: A literature review and the occasion of an educationally influential physician identification survey provided an opportunity to contribute to development of this construct. We compared three identification rules used to study 212 physicians.RESULTS: Each rule may identify different people as EIPs.DISCUSSION: To improve the use of educational influentials, research must be completed to validate their role in informal learning.
