PRIMARY CARE RESEARCH METHODS & STATISTICS CONFERENCE

成立了初级保健研究方法和统计会议 以提高初级保健研究人员的技能。 特别是， 两个长期目标是发展基本的研究技能， 新的研究人员，并扩大方法的剧目， 经验丰富的研究人员。 几个具体的知识和技能领域是 包括定量研究方法、统计、使用 计算机、写作技能和医疗结果研究。 此外 1991年会议除这些总目标外，还有几个具体目标。 一 是通过指定一个特定的新手， 研究人员会议轨道，除了基础研究规划 研讨会 另一个具体目标是开发一个专门用于定性 方法论，利用本克拉布特里博士的专业知识。和桑德拉 Burge博士今年会议的第三个具体目标是， 以“医疗效果研究”为主题，在去年 主题为“成果的衡量”。" 会议设计建立在四个并发会话或轨道上， 每个都致力于特定的研究领域（例如，计算机，统计数据， 等）。如前所述，计划为医疗保健提供具体的轨道， 有效性研究、质化方法与新手研究者 skills. 除同时举行的会议外，全体会议将 集合所有参与者。乔治是今年全会的发言人之一 伦德伯格医学博士，JAMA的编辑，他将在 此外，还计划举办讲习班，重点是医疗效果研究， 定性方法和定量方法。 最后，早餐会议旨在最大限度地提高参与者的参与度。 互动 计划举行两次会议：一次专门讨论共同利益表，另一次讨论共同利益表。 研究职业规划小组讨论。

The Primary Care Research Methods and Statistics Conference was established in order to enhance the skills of primary care researchers. In particular, two long-term objectives have been to develop basic research skills among novice researchers, and to expand the repertoire of methodologies for experienced researchers. Several specific knowledge and skill areas are being developed, including quantitative research methods, statistics, use of computers, writing skills, and medical outcomes research. In addition to these overall goals, the 1991 conference has several specific aims. One is to better-target novice researchers by designating a specific novice researcher conference track, in addition to a Basic Research Planning Seminar. Another specific aim is to develop a track devoted to qualitative methodology, making use of the expertise of Ben Crabtree Ph.D. and Sandra Burge Ph.D. The third specific aim for this year's conference is to set "Medical Effectiveness Research" as the theme, building on last year's theme "Measures of Outcome." The conference design is built upon four concurrent sessions or tracks, each devoted to a particular research area (e.g., computers, statistics, etc.). As noted earlier, specific tracks are planned for medical effectiveness research, qualitative methodology, and novice researcher skills. In addition to the concurrent sessions, plenary sessions will gather all participants. one of this year's Plenary Speakers is George Lundberg M.D., Editor of JAMA, who will speak on Also, workshops are planned, focusing on medical effectiveness research, qualitative methods, and quantitative methods. Finally, breakfast sessions are designed to maximize participant interaction. Two sessions are planned: one devoted for common interest tables, another a panel discussion of research career planning.
