目的：本研究的目的是探讨申请人性别与影响妇产科住院医师计划选择的因素之间的关系。 研究设计：对 2003 年在电子住院医师申请服务中注册的美国对抗疗法医学院的毕业生进行了一项全国性调查，他们表示妇产科是他们的主要专业选择。按性别对20个可能影响因素的选择率进行分析。结果：我们的研究队列由450名符合条件的受访者组成，其中80.4%是女性。在申请人年龄、种族、婚姻状况、家属人数或医学院地理区域方面，性别没有显着差异。总体而言，两性群体中选择率最高的4个因素均与工作环境有关。与男性受访者相比，女性受访者更有可能考虑当前住院医生的合作程度（99.2% vs 94.3%；P =.002）以及会议/教学的数量（80.4% vs 68.2%；P =.01）。与女性受访者相比，男性受访者更有可能考虑医院设施的质量（92% vs 82%；P = .02）、工资（28.4% vs 17.1%；P = .02）和补充收入（兼职）机会（18.2% vs 8.6%；P =.008）。 结论：与妇产科相关的性别偏好存在显着差异住院医师项目的选择是存在的，包括课程和经济因素。 (C) 2005 Mosby, Inc. 保留所有权利。
Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between applicant gender and factors that influence obstetrics and gynecology residency program selection.Study design: A national survey was conducted of graduates of US allopathic medical schools who were registered with the Electronic Residency Application Service for the year 2003 and who indicated that obstetrics and gynecology was their primary specialty choice. The selection prevalence of 20 possible influential factors was analyzed by gender.Results: Our study cohort consisted of 450 eligible respondents, 80.4% of whom were female. There were no significant differences by gender in regards to applicant age, race, marital status, number of dependents, or geographic region of medical school. Overall, the 4 factors with the highest selection prevalence in both gender groups were all related to workplace environment. Compared with male respondents, female respondents were more likely to consider how well the current residents seemed to work together (99.2% vs 94.3%; P =.002) and the amount of conference/didactic teaching (80.4% vs 68.2%; P =.01). Male respondents were more likely to consider the quality of the hospital facility (92% vs 82%; P =.02), salary (28.4% vs 17.1%; P = .02), and supplemental income (moonlighting) opportunities (18.2% vs 8.6%; P =.008), as compared with female respondents.Conclusion: Significant differences in gender-associated preferences that are related to obstetrics and gynecology residency program selection exist and include both curricular and financial factors.
