方法我们进行了一项横断面研究的医学生在加州大学洛杉矶分校医学院在2000年4月，进入学生在2000年8月使用癌症预防和检测调查改编自波士顿大学设计的。7除了回答30个多项选择题和判断题来评估癌症预防知识外，学生们还评估了他们在预防吸烟、戒烟、防晒和健康营养咨询方面的能力水平，以及进行皮肤、乳房、巴氏涂片和直肠指检筛查的能力水平。知识和自我知觉的能力，在咨询和筛选技能的三个结果变量的兴趣。学生们还报告了他们在有针对性的癌症预防技能方面练习、观察或接受直接指导的次数。
MethodWe conducted a cross-sectional study of medical students at UCLA School of Medicine in April 2000 and entering students in August 2000 using a cancer prevention and detection survey adapted from the one devised at Boston University. 7 In addition to answering 30 multiple-choice and true—false questions assessing knowledge of cancer prevention, students rated their levels of competence in counseling for smoking prevention, smoking cessation, sun protection, and healthy nutrition, and in performing skin, breast, Pap smear, and digital rectal screening examinations. Knowledge and self-perceived competencies in counseling and screening skills were the three outcome variables of interest. Students also reported on the numbers of times they had practiced, observed, or received direct instruction in targeted cancer prevention skills.
