As residency programs adapt to the need to promote primary care, the importance of quantitating qualitative issues increases. In this study, a questionnaire based on reported residency stressors was answered by 238 internal medicine residents. The Profile of Mood States (POMS) was also completed by 64. Factor analysis derived three scales reflecting emotional distress and satisfaction with the workload and learning environment. Emotional distress correlated positively with POMS scores indicating depression and dejection and was inversely related to workload. Workload satisfaction was significantly higher in programs with fewer admissions and lower in programs with greater patient loads. Responses did not differ by postgraduate year of training. Residents in different programs showed significant differences in emotional distress and workload but not learning environment. Residents in university programs indicated more stress and less satisfaction with workload than those in community programs. This study supports the validity of the three scales and provides insights into elements of the educational process that are difficult to quantitate. |
