本研究分析了学生对医学教育需求的决定因素。对两个系列--医学院的总申请者和拥有优秀大学记录的医学院的申请者--进行了研究。研究结果表明,学生的职业选择与不同职业之间学费和预期收入的差异密切相关。大学成绩为A的学生对金钱激励的反应相对较弱。医学院学杂费的大幅上涨和相对较低的津贴水平降低了学生对将医学作为职业的兴趣。收入差距也有影响。医学教育的供给,以学生被录取的概率来衡量,对需求有积极的影响。
This study analyzes determinants of student demand for medical education. Two series-total applicants to medical schools and medical school applicants with superior college records-are studied. The results indicate that student career decisions are strongly related to interoccupational differences in tuition and expected incomes. Students with "A" college records are somewhat less responsive to monetary incentives. Substantial increases in medical school tuition and fees and relatively low stipend levels have decreased student interest in medicine as a career. Income differentials also have an impact. The supply of medical education, measured by the probability of a student being accepted, has a positive effect on demand.
